| Abstract | Syndecan-4 is a cell membrane proteoglycan composed of a transmembrane core protein and substituted glycosaminoglycan (GAG) and N-linked glycosylated (N-glycosylated) chains. The core protein has three domains: extracellular, transmembrane and cytoplasmic domains. The GAG and N-glycosylated chains and the cytoplasmic domain of syndecan-4, especially the amino acids: Ser$^{178}$ and Tyr$^{187}$ are critical in regulation of turkey satellite cell growth and development. How these processes are regulated is still unknown. The objective of the current study was to determine whether the syndecan-4 GAG and N-glycosylated chains and the cytoplasmic domain functions through modulating focal adhesion formation and apoptosis. Twelve mutant clones were generated: a truncated syndecan-4 without the cytoplasmic domain with or without GAG and N-glycosylated chains, and Ser$^{178}$ and Tyr$^{187}$ mutants with or without GAG and N-glycosylated chains. The wild type syndecan-4 and all of the syndecan-4 mutants were transfected into turkey myogenic satellite cells after which cell apoptosis and focal adhesion formation were measured. Syndecan-4 increased cell membrane localization of β1 integrin and the activity of focal adhesion kinase (FAK) whereas the cytoplasmic domain mutation decreased the phosphorylation of FAK. However, syndecan-4 and syndecan-4 mutants did not influence cell apoptosis. They also had no effect on vinculin or paxillin-containing focal adhesion formation. These results suggested that the syndecan-4 cytoplasmic domain plays an important role in regulating FAK activity and β1 integrin cell membrane localization but not cell apoptosis and vinculin or paxillin-containing focal adhesion formation. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
