Abstract: The lifetime of the glycoprotein glycans of the rat cerebellum was followed in the 2nd and 3rd weeks of postnatal age, after injection of labelled glucosamine. It appears that a particular class of glycans binding to Concanavalin A synthesized at an early age has a short lifetime. These results indicate that the glycans of the Concanavalin A-binding glycoproteins abundant on the newly formed parallel fibres are rapidly degraded between the 14th and the 18th postnatal day.
