Sialic acids typically present as terminal sugars of oligo-saccharides are reported to be modified by O-acetylation at the C-9 position on lymphoblasts of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) patients (Sinha et al., 1999a, Leukaemia, 13, 119-125). We now report high titers of IgG antibodies directed against O-acetylated derivatives of sialic acids (O-AcSA) in serum of ALL patients. These antibodies were purified using bovine submaxillary mucin (BSM) and the IgG distribution was confined… Expand
