Mucin-type core 2 O- glycans play an important role in leukocyte extravasation as they serve as scaffolds for the display of the selectin ligand sialyl Lewis X by leukocytes. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:23027862}. |Branch| |cell adhesion molecule production| |beta-1,3-galactosyl-O-glycosyl-glycoprotein beta-1,6-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase activity| |Golgi cisterna| |leukocyte tethering or rolling| |leukocyte adhesion to vascular endothelial cell| |cellular extravasation| |leukocyte cell-cell adhesion| |O-glycan processing| |kidney morphogenesis| |protein O-linked glycosylation| |trans-Golgi network| |response to insulin| |macromolecule glycosylation| |protein glycosylation| |glycosylation| |kidney development| |renal system development| |urogenital system development| |glycoprotein biosynthetic process| |leukocyte migration| |glycoprotein metabolic process| |response to peptide hormone| |response to peptide| |cell-cell adhesion| |tissue morphogenesis| |carbohydrate derivative biosynthetic process| |Golgi membrane| |response to hormone| |cell adhesion| |biological adhesion| |animal organ morphogenesis| |cell migration| |response to organonitrogen compound| |carbohydrate derivative metabolic process| |cell motility| |localization of cell| |response to nitrogen compound| |locomotion| |organonitrogen compound biosynthetic process| |response to endogenous stimulus| |movement of cell or subcellular component| |response to oxygen-containing compound| |extracellular space| |cellular macromolecule biosynthetic process| |tissue development| |macromolecule biosynthetic process| \\ === CRISPR Data === No hits were found.
