TI  - N-linked oligosaccharides of vomeromodulin, a putative pheromone transporter in
      rat.
PG  - 451-5
AB  - Vomeromodulin, a putative pheromone transporter of the rat vomeronasal organ, was
      isolated by lectin chromatography, purified, and subjected to a mass
      spectrometric (MS) system of glycan structural determination. Through a
      combination of exoglycosidase treatments and measurements by matrix-assisted
      laser desorption/ionization MS, the N-glycans of vomeromodulin were identified as
      mainly sialylated and fucosylated biantennary structures. The microheterogeneity 
      of N-glycan structures was also due to the presence of galactose residues with
      different types of linkages.
