Std fimbriae-fucose interaction increases Salmonella-induced intestinal inflammation and prolongs colonization [PDF]
Author summary The intestinal epithelium is a crucial biological interface, interacting with both commensal and pathogenic microorganisms. It’s lined with heavily glycosylated proteins and glycolipids which can act as both attachment sites and energy ...

Human T cell glycosylation and implications on immune therapy for cancer [PDF]
Glycosylation is an important post-translational modification, giving rise to a diverse and abundant repertoire of glycans on the cell surface, collectively known as the glycome.

Delineation of fucosyltransferase activities with thiol reagents [PDF]
The thiol reagent dithiothreitol inhibits the activity of a core GDP-fucose-N-acetylglucosaminide alpha-6-fucosyltransferase in plasma and blood-cell homogenates, while promoting the activity of alpha-2- and alpha-3-fucosyltransferases. The latter enzymes catalyse transfer of fucose on to terminal galactose and subterminal N-acetylglucosamine residues ...

The balance between GMD and OFUT1 regulates notch signaling pathway activity by modulating notch stability [PDF]
The Notch signaling pathway plays an important role in development and physiology. In Drosophila, Notch is activated by its Delta or Serrate ligands, depending in part on the sugar modifications present in its extracellular domain. O-fucosyltransferase-1

Downregulating Notch counteracts KrasG12D-induced ERK activation and oxidative phosphorylation in myeloproliferative neoplasm. [PDF]
The Notch signaling pathway contributes to the pathogenesis of a wide spectrum of human cancers, including hematopoietic malignancies. Its functions are highly dependent on the specific cellular context. Gain-of-function NOTCH1 mutations are prevalent in

The Arabidopsis O-fucosyltransferase SPINDLY activates nuclear growth repressor DELLA
Plant development requires coordination among complex signaling networks to enhance plant’s adaptation to changing environments. The transcription regulators DELLAs, originally identified as repressors of phytohormone gibberellin (GA) signaling, play a ...
