Analysis of congenital disorder of glycosylation-Id in a yeast model system shows diverse site-specific under-glycosylation of glycoproteins [PDF]
Asparagine-linked glycosylation is a common post translational modification of proteins in eukaryotes. Mutations in the human ALG3 gene cause changed levels and altered glycan structures on mature glycoproteins and are the cause of a severe congenital ...

Deglycosylation systematically improves N-glycoprotein identification in liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry proteomics for analysis of cell wall stress responses in Saccharomyces cerevisiae lacking Alg3p [PDF]
Post-translational modification of proteins with glycosylation is of key importance in many biological systems in eukaryotes, influencing fundamental biological processes and regulating protein function. Changes in glycosylation are therefore of interest

A Drosophila screen identifies NKCC1 as a modifier of NGLY1 deficiency [PDF]
N-Glycanase 1 (NGLY1) is a cytoplasmic deglycosylating enzyme. Loss-of-function mutations in the NGLY1 gene cause NGLY1 deficiency, which is characterized by developmental delay, seizures, and a lack of sweat and tears.

Abstract Oligosaccharidoses, sphingolipidoses and mucolipidoses are lysosomal storage disorders (LSDs) in which defective breakdown of glycan‐side chains of glycosylated proteins and glycolipids leads to the accumulation of incompletely degraded oligosaccharides within lysosomes. In metabolic laboratories, these disorders are commonly diagnosed by thin‐

A conserved role for AMP-activated protein kinase in NGLY1 deficiency.
Mutations in human N-glycanase 1 (NGLY1) cause the first known congenital disorder of deglycosylation (CDDG). Patients with this rare disease, which is also known as NGLY1 deficiency, exhibit global developmental delay and other phenotypes including ...

NGLY1 Deficiency: A Rare Genetic Disorder Unlocks Therapeutic Potential for Common Diseases
Abstract The enzyme catalysing the removal of N‐linked glycans from misfolded glycoproteins in the cytosol is an evolutionary well‐conserved glycanase called Peptide:N‐glycanase (PNGase; NGLY1 in humans). NGLY1 hydrolyses the amide bond between an Asn and the proximal N‐acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) of the attached N‐glycan, thereby converting that ...

NGLY1 deficiency: Novel patient, review of the literature and diagnostic algorithm
Objectives Together with the lysosomal storage diseases, NGLY1 deficiency is a congenital disorder of deglycosylation (NGLY1‐CDDG). Since the first report in 2012, 26 patients have been described. All but one were diagnosed by exome or genome sequencing;
