Step 1
- How to use: Prepare a 0.01–0.1% poly-L-lysine solution (or poly-D-lysine) in water. Apply a thin coating to clean slides, incubate typically 30–60 minutes (varies by protocol), rinse with water, and air-dry or bake as directed before mounting sections. - Notes: Show more…

Cell adhesion can often be blocked by treating cells with specific agents. Which of the following substances (agents) would be expected to interfere with cell adhesion mediated by the molecules below? Explain your answers. (Choose substances for each of the cell adhesion molecules below. More than one substance may apply for each cell adhesion molecule – explain why you chose each substance). Cell Adhesion Molecules a) L1 molecules b) Cadherins c) Integrins d) Selectins Substances 1) Trypsin, which digests proteins 2) Neuraminidase, which removes sialic acid from an oligosaccharide 3) Collagenase, which digests collagen 4) Hyaluronidase, which digests hyaluronic acid 5) EGTA, which binds Ca+2 ions in the medium 6) A peptide containing RGD
