Temperature dependence of CSAS activity

CSAS_vs_Temp_new

 CSAS activity increases steeply with temperature
CSAS activity increases
about tenfold within
the range of temperature
of Drosophila natural habitats.
Drosophila is a poikilotherm,
having organism’s
temperature controlled by
ambient conditions.
Environmental temperature
can potentially regulate
sialylation, thus adjusting
neural excitability.
