O-Glycosylation of thrombospondin type 1 repeats : identification and characterisation of β1,3-glucosyltransferase [PDF]

, 2008
Rare types of protein glycosylation often occur in a domain-specific manner required for important biological functions (Okajima et al. 2008). O-linked fucosylation, where the fucose is linked directly to the hydroxyl groups of serine or threonine ...

Ethanol triggers grape gene expression leading to anthocyanin accumulation during berry ripening [PDF]

, 2002
Recent studies have shown that low doses of ethanol stimulate the maturation of some fruits. The present work showed that spraying Cabernet Sauvignon grapes, with 5% ethanol at veraison enhances the anthocyanin accumulation.
