A Possible Role for Arylsulfatase G in Dermatan Sulfate Metabolism. [PDF]

open access: yesInt J Mol Sci, 2020
Perturbations of glycosaminoglycan metabolism lead to mucopolysaccharidoses (MPS)—lysosomal storage diseases. One type of MPS (type VI) is associated with a deficiency of arylsulfatase B (ARSB), for which we previously established a cellular model ...

Sequencing the Dermatan Sulfate Chain of Decorin. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Am Chem Soc, 2017
Glycomics represents one of the last frontiers and most challenging in omic analysis. Glycosylation occurs in the endoplasmic reticulum and the Golgi organelle and its control is neither well-understood nor predictable based on proteomic or genomic analysis.

Biosynthesis of Dermatan Sulfate [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2006
We identified the gene encoding chondroitin-glucuronate C5-epimerase (EC 5.1.3.19) that converts d-glucuronic acid to l-iduronic acid residues in dermatan sulfate biosynthesis. The enzyme was solubilized from bovine spleen, and an ∼43,000-fold purified preparation containing a major 89-kDa candidate component was subjected to mass spectrometry analysis

DSE promotes aggressive glioma cell phenotypes by enhancing HB-EGF/ErbB signaling. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
Remodeling of the extracellular matrix (ECM) in the tumor microenvironment promotes glioma progression. Chondroitin sulfate (CS) proteoglycans appear in the ECM and on the cell surface, and can be catalyzed by dermatan sulfate epimerase to form ...

Effect of epithelial debridement on human cornea proteoglycans

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2001
Corneal transparency is attributed to the regular spacing and diameter of collagen fibrils, and proteoglycans may play a role in fibrillogenesis and matrix assembly. Corneal scar tissue is opaque and this opacity is explained by decreased ultrastructural

Impaired proteoglycan glycosylation, elevated TGF-β signaling, and abnormal osteoblast differentiation as the basis for bone fragility in a mouse model for gerodermia osteodysplastica. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2018
Gerodermia osteodysplastica (GO) is characterized by skin laxity and early-onset osteoporosis. GORAB, the responsible disease gene, encodes a small Golgi protein of poorly characterized function.

Antithrombin activity and disaccharide composition of dermatan sulfate from different bovine tissues [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Dermatan sulfate is a glycosaminoglycan that selectively inhibits the action of thrombin through interaction with heparin cofactor II. Unlike heparin it does not interact with other coagulation factors and is able to inhibit thrombin associated with ...

Strain-specific joint invasion and colonization by Lyme disease spirochetes is promoted by outer surface protein C.

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2020
Lyme disease, caused by Borrelia burgdorferi, B. afzelii and B. garinii, is a chronic, multi-systemic infection and the spectrum of tissues affected can vary with the Lyme disease strain. For example, whereas B.

A Fluorescent Probe for Glycosaminoglycans Applied to the Detection of Dermatan Sulfate by a Mix-and-Read Assay

open access: yesMolecules, 2017
Glycosaminoglycans are complex biomolecules of great biological and medical importance. The quantification of glycosaminoglycans, in particular in complex matrices, is challenging due to their inherent structural heterogeneity.
