The Dual Role and Clinical Potential of Core Fucosylation in Liver Diseases

open access: yesShengwu huaxue yu shengwu wuli jinzhan
Core fucosylation, catalyzed exclusively by fucosyltransferase 8 (FUT8), is an evolutionarily conserved post-translational modification that has emerged as a central regulatory hub linking liver homeostasis, chronic disease progression, and malignant ...

Cytogenetics, conserved synteny and evolution of chicken fucosyltransferase genes compared to human

open access: yes, 2003
Fucosyltransferases appeared early in evolution, since they are present from bacteria to primates and the genes are well conserved. The aim of this work was to study these genes in the bird group, which is particularly attractive for the comprehension of

Chemoenzymatic Synthesis of 6‐Sulfo Sialyl Lewisx Containing Glycans to Probe the Receptor Specificity of MERS Coronavirus

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.
A chemoenzymatic methodology is described that provided a panel of 6‐sulfo sialyl Lewisx‐containing glycans that were probed for receptor specificity of MERS‐CoV. Although the fucoside of 6‐sulfo‐SLex does not directly interact with the spike, it pre‐organizes the molecule into a conformation to allow a salt bridge between the sulfate and the ...

Purification and Some Properties of Fucosyltransferase in Human Parotid Saliva

open access: yes, 1987
Fucosyltransferase was purified from human parotid saliva by affinity chromatography on GDP-hexanolamine Sepharose, followed by chromatofocusing on PBE 94 exchanger gel. The purified enzyme had the N-acetylglucosaminide α1→4, the N-acetylglucosaminide α1→

O-fucosylation of the notch ligand mDLL1 by POFUT1 is dispensable for ligand function. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Fucosylation of Epidermal Growth Factor-like (EGF) repeats by protein O-fucosyltransferase 1 (POFUT1 in vertebrates, OFUT1 in Drosophila) is pivotal for NOTCH function.

Alterations of Fucosyltransferase Genes and Fucosylated Glycans in Gastric Epithelial Cells Infected with Helicobacter pylori

open access: yesPathogens, 2021
Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) adhesion to human gastric epithelial cells is closely linked with fucosylated glycans. Therefore, investigation of fucosylation in the interaction of gastric epithelial cells with H. pylori is critical.

Peripheral Blood DNA Methylation Changes Precede Lymphoma Diagnosis in Primary Sjögren's Disease

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Primary Sjögren's disease (SjD) is a systemic autoimmune disease associated with an increased risk of lymphoma. The molecular mechanisms underlying lymphomagenesis remain poorly understood, and sensitive biomarkers for early identification of patients at high risk of developing lymphoma are lacking.

Structure-based prioritization of marine natural products as candidate FUT8 binders

open access: yesIn Silico Research in Biomedicine
Protein glycosylation is one of the most common post-translational modifications and plays an important role in maintaining protein structure and function. Aberrant glycosylation can alter the structural profile of glycoproteins in colorectal cancer (CRC)

Analysis of Carbohydrates and Glycoconjugates by Matrix‐Assisted Laser Desorption/Ionization Mass Spectrometry: An Update for 2023–2024

open access: yesMass Spectrometry Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The use of MALDI mass spectrometry for the analysis of carbohydrates and glycoconjugates is a well‐established technique and this comprehensive review is the twelfth update of the original article published in 1999 and brings coverage of the literature to the end of 2024.
