Glycomic Analysis of Biomedically Important O-glycoconjugates

open access: yes, 2011
It has been established that all cells carry an array of glycans attached to proteins and lipids that are crucial in the interaction between cells and the surrounding matrix. Proteins are mainly glycosylated on asparagines (N-glycosylation) and serine or

Suppression of beta1,3galactosyltransferase beta3Gal-T5 in cancer cells reduces sialyl-Lewis a and enhances poly-N-acetyllactosamines and sialyl-Lewis x on O-glycans [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
We investigated the role of beta 3 Gal-T5, a member of the beta 1,3galactosyltransferase (beta 1,3Gal-T) family, in cancer-associated glycosylation, focusing on the expression of sialyl-Lewis a (sLea, the epitope of CA19.9 antigen), poly N ...

Reprograming of gut microbiome energy metabolism by the FUT2 Crohn's disease risk polymorphism. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Fucosyltransferase 2 (FUT2) is an enzyme that is responsible for the synthesis of the H antigen in body fluids and on the intestinal mucosa. The H antigen is an oligosaccharide moiety that acts as both an attachment site and carbon source for intestinal ...

Fucosyltransferase 8 modulates receptor tyrosine kinase activation and temozolomide resistance in glioblastoma cells.

open access: yesAmerican journal of cancer research
Alteration of extracellular glycosylation is a hallmark of malignant characteristics. In this study, we revealed that fucosyltransferase 8 (FUT8), an enzyme that mediates the core fucosylation of N-linked glycosylation, is an important regulator of malignant characteristics in human glioma that acts by modifying the activities of both the HGF receptor (

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.

Genome-wide association study identifies elite alleles of FLA2 and FLA9 controlling flag leaf angle in rice

open access: yesBMC Genomics
Background In hybrid rice seed production, rice varieties with a small flag leaf angle (FLA) experience obstacles to cross-pollination at the early heading stage, and farmers usually need to remove flag leaves to achieve artificial pollination. Therefore,

Fucosyltransferase 8 (FUT8) and core fucose expression in oxidative stress response

open access: yesFucosyltransferase 8 (FUT8) and core fucose expression in oxidative stress response
GlycoMaple is a new tool to predict glycan structures based on the expression levels of 950 genes encoding glycan biosynthesis-related enzymes and proteins using RNA-seq data. The antioxidant response, protecting cells from oxidative stress, has been focused on because its activation may relieve pathological conditions, such as neurodegenerative ...
