After a long search, RIKEN researchers have identified an enzyme crucial for keeping lipid-linked sugar chains in check in ...

Sites of O-glycosylation on the spike protein were near N-glycosites, suggesting O-glycans complement N-glycans' effect in immune shielding. The severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 ...

N-Glycosylation is a vital post‐translational modification in archaea that involves the attachment of oligosaccharide chains to specific asparagine residues on target proteins. This process not only ...

Glycosylation is one of the most abundant of all protein post-translational modifications (PTMs). It results from the addition of sugar residues to protein sidechains to form a glycoprotein. Mammalian ...

Scientists from Croatia have identified 90 genes associated with the glycosylation of immunoglobulin (IgG). The team, who has already shown that 20 of these genes can be used to tweak glycosylation ...

Carbohydrate chemists and biochemists tend to be controlling personalities. They aren't satisfied with the way sugar groups are attached naturally to glycosylated proteins and natural products. These ...

Protein glycosylation is a post-translational/co-translational covalent attachment of glycans to the amino acid side chains of proteins. Severe acute respiratory ...

A recent study published in Engineering introduces GlycoPro, a novel high-throughput sample-processing platform that aims to transform the field of multi-glycosylation-omics analysis. Glycosylation, a ...

Glycans are important complex carbohydrates found on cell surfaces that serve crucial roles in cell-to-cell communication, structure, and protection. They are attached to many proteins in the body, ...

Plant pathogenic fungi deploy secreted effectors to suppress plant immunity responses. These effectors operate either in the apoplast or within host cells, so they are putatively glycosylated, but the ...
