How to Dig Deeper? Improved Enrichment Methods for Mucin Core-1 Type Glycopeptides [PDF]
Two different workflows were tested in order to develop methods that provide deeper insight into the secreted O-glycoproteome. Bovine serum samples were subjected to lectin affinity-chromatography both at the protein- and peptide-level in order to ...

Heterologous production and characterisation of a yeast peptide:N-glycanase : a thesis presented in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Biochemistry at Massey University, New Zealand [PDF]
Peptide:.N-glycanases (PNGases) removes A-linked glycans from glycoproteins. Three distinct families of PNGases have been characterised, although all of them not completely. Some of these PNGases are cytosolic, others are secreted.

Molecular basis for intestinal mucin recognition by galectin-3 and C-type lectins [PDF]
Intestinal mucins trigger immune responses upon recognition by dendritic cells via protein–carbohydrate interactions. We used a combination of structural, biochemical, biophysical, and cell-based approaches to decipher the specificity of the interaction ...

Hybrid QM/MM study on the deglycosylation step of chitin hydrolysis catalysed by chitinase B from Serratia marcescens [PDF]
Chitinase B (ChiB) from Serratia marcescens is an exo-chitinase that degrades chitin chains from the non-reducing end by cleaving off a dimer or trimer sugar product.
