Reaction: Nuclear CMP-Neu5Ac translocates to cytosol
- in pathway: Sialic acid metabolism
Once CMP-N-acetylneuraminate (CMP-Neu5Ac) is formed, it leaves the nucleus through nuclear pores to be further modified or used in conjugation reactions in the Golgi apparatus (Li & Chen 2012). The mechanism of translocation is unknown.
Reaction - small molecule participants:
