Abstract
Brain glycoprotein sugars were studied during human brain development. Marked changes were found in the sugar content of glycopeptides derived from soluble and insoluble glycoproteins, showing a general decrease in the soluble and an increase in the insoluble fraction. The data indicate that changes in glycan moiety and/or in glycoprotein population occur during development. The existence of a‘critical period’in glycoprotein development which coincides with the formation of axonal and synaptic membranes sprouting has been established (Dobbing, 1971).
