NUCLEOTIDE-SUGAR TRANSPORTERS: STRUCTURE, FUNCTION AND ROLES IN VIVO

The glycosylation of glycoconjugates and the biosynthesis of polysaccharides depend on nucleotide-sugars which are the substrates for glycosyltransferases.A large proportion of these enzymes are located within the lumen of the Golgi apparatus as well as the endoplasmic reticulum, while many of the nucleotide-sugars are synthesized in the cytosol.Th

Primary hydatid disease of spine is rare and spinal hydatitosis constitute only 1% Accessories of all hydatitosis.We report a case of recurrent primary intraspinal extradural hydatid cyst of the thoracic region causing progressive paraparesis.The patient was operated 16 years ago for primary spinal hydatid disease involvement and was instrumented d
