Roles of core fucosylation modification in immune system and diseases [PDF]
Core fucosylation, catalyzed by α1,6-fucosyltransferase (FUT8), is an important N-glycosylation modification process that attaches a fucose residue via an α1,6-linkage to the core N-acetylglucosamine of N-glycans in mammals.

Role of Fc Core Fucosylation in the Effector Function of IgG1 Antibodies [PDF]
The presence of fucose on IgG1 Asn-297 N-linked glycan is the modification of the human IgG1 Fc structure with the most significant impact on FcɣRIII affinity. It also significantly enhances the efficacy of antibody dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC)

Core Fucosylation of the T Cell Receptor Is Required for T Cell Activation [PDF]
CD4+ T cell activation promotes the pathogenic process of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). T cell receptor (TCR) complex are highly core fucosylated glycoproteins, which play important roles in T cell activation.

Core Fucosylation Regulates the Function of Pre-BCR, BCR and IgG in Humoral Immunity [PDF]
Most of the membrane molecules involved in immune response are glycosylated. N-glycans linked to asparagine (Asn) of immune molecules contribute to the protein conformation, surface expression, stability, and antigenicity.

Quantitative Assessment of Core Fucosylation for Congenital Disorders of Glycosylation. [PDF]
Congenital disorders of glycosylation (CDG) include a group of diseases characterized by defects of N-glycan fucosylation. The analytical molecule of choice for the diagnosis of CDG affecting N-glycosylation is serum transferrin: approximately 10% of the glycans attached to transferrin are fucosylated via an α1,6 linkage at the innermost N ...

Effect of Fc core fucosylation and light chain isotype on IgG1 flexibility [PDF]
Classical and accelerated molecular dynamics simulations reveal how core fucosylation in the IgG1 Fc glycan and the light chain isotype modulate the conformational behavior of the hinge and Fab domains and dynamics of IgG1 antibodies.

Core fucosylation and its roles in gastrointestinal glycoimmunology. [PDF]
Esophageal cancer (EC) is one of the most common digestive system malignancies in the world. The combined modality treatment of EC is usually surgery and radiation therapy, however, its clinical efficacy for advanced patients is relatively limited. Ferroptosis, a new type of iron-dependent programmed cell death, is different from apoptosis, necrosis ...
