Association Study Between the Polymorphisms of Exostosin-1 Gene and Economic Traits in Hanwoo

open access: yesJournal of Animal Science and Technology, 2011
The aim of this study was to identify the polymorphism on exostosin-1 (EXT1) gene and to associate with economic traits in Hanwoo (Korean cattle). We sequenced for detection of single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) with 24 unrelated individuals and identified four SNPs (T272196A, C272359T, G290964A and A302092G).

Heparin and heparan sulfate—The essence of sequence

open access: yesProteoglycan Research, Volume 2, Issue 4, October-December 2024.
Abstract Heparin, discovered as an anticoagulant more than 100 years ago, is composed of the same structural units as heparan sulfate, and their biosynthesis in the Golgi compartment is carried out by the same families of enzymes. However, while heparin is restricted to mast cells, heparan sulfate is widely distributed and is found at the cell surface ...

Identification of glycosyltransferases mediating 2‐O‐arabinopyranosyl and 2‐O‐galactosyl substitutions of glucuronosyl side chains of xylan

open access: yesThe Plant Journal, Volume 120, Issue 1, Page 234-252, October 2024.
SUMMARY Xylan is one of the major hemicelluloses in plant cell walls and its xylosyl backbone is often decorated at O‐2 with glucuronic acid (GlcA) and/or methylglucuronic acid (MeGlcA) residues. The GlcA/MeGlcA side chains may be further substituted with 2‐O‐arabinopyranose (Arap) or 2‐O‐galactopyranose (Gal) residues in some plant species, but the ...

Hereditary multiple exostoses: an educational review

open access: yesInsights into Imaging
Hereditary multiple exostoses (HME), an autosomal dominant disorder with an incidence of 1:50,000 to 1:100,000, is characterised by the formation of multiple osteochondromas arising from the metaphyses of long and flat bones.

A biological guide to glycosaminoglycans: current perspectives and pending questions

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, Volume 291, Issue 15, Page 3331-3366, August 2024.
Mammalian glycosaminoglycans, except hyaluronan, are sulfated polysaccharides that are covalently attached to core proteins to form proteoglycans. They contribute to the organization of the extracellular matrix and are displayed at the cell surface where they regulate the availability and activity of cytokines and growth factors and cell signaling ...

Polysaccharide-synthesizing Glycosyltransferases and Carbohydrate Binding Modules: the case of Starch Synthase III [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Glycosyltransferases (GTs) are a ubiquitous group of enzymes that catalyze the transfer of sugar moieties from activated donor molecules to specific acceptor molecules, forming glycosidic bonds.

The exostosin glycosyltransferase 1/STAT3 axis is a driver of breast cancer aggressiveness

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences
The epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT) program is crucial for transforming carcinoma cells into a partially mesenchymal state, enhancing their chemoresistance, migration, and metastasis. This shift in cell state is tightly regulated by cellular mechanisms that are not yet fully characterized.

EXTL3 and NPC1 are mammalian host factors for Autographa californica multiple nucleopolyhedrovirus infection

open access: yesNature Communications
Baculovirus is an obligate parasitic virus of the phylum Arthropoda. Baculovirus including Autographa californica multiple nucleopolyhedrovirus (AcMNPV) has been widely used in the laboratory and industrial preparation of proteins or protein complexes ...
