Cell-based glycan arrays for probing glycan–glycan binding protein interactions [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
Glycans, interaction platforms protruding from the surface of cells, are hard to study due to their diverse architecture. Here, the authors present a method to obtain cells carrying defined glycans, which can then be used to find proteins specifically ...

A glycan gate controls opening of the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein

open access: yesNature Chemistry, 2021
SARS-CoV-2 infection is controlled by the opening of the spike protein receptor binding domain (RBD), which transitions from a glycan-shielded ‘down’ to an exposed ‘up’ state to bind the human angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 receptor and infect cells ...

Vulnerabilities in coronavirus glycan shields despite extensive glycosylation

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
Severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) and Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS) coronaviruses (CoVs) are zoonotic pathogens with high fatality rates and pandemic potential.

The challenges of glycan recognition with natural and artificial receptors

open access: yesChemical Society Reviews, 2019
Glycans - simple or complex carbohydrates - play key roles as recognition determinants and modulators of numerous physiological and pathological processes.

Immune regulatory networks coordinated by glycans and glycan-binding proteins in autoimmunity and infection

open access: yesCellular & Molecular Immunology, 2023
The immune system is coordinated by an intricate network of stimulatory and inhibitory circuits that regulate host responses against endogenous and exogenous insults.

Glyco-Decipher enables glycan database-independent peptide matching and in-depth characterization of site-specific N-glycosylation

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
Glycopeptides with unusual glycans or poor peptide backbone fragmentation in tandem mass spectrometry are unaccounted for in typical site-specific glycoproteomics analysis and thus remain unidentified.

RDFizing the biosynthetic pathway of E.coli O-antigen to enable semantic sharing of microbiology data

open access: yesBMC Microbiology, 2021
Background The abundance of glycomics data that have accumulated has led to the development of many useful databases to aid in the understanding of the function of the glycans and their impact on cellular activity. At the same time, the endeavor for data

Efficient and selective catalytic hydroxylation of unsaturated plant oils: a novel method for producing anti-pathogens

open access: yesBMC Chemistry, 2021
With the increasing demand for antimicrobial agents and the spread of antibiotic resistance in pathogens, the exploitation of plant oils to partly replace antibiotic emerges as an important source of fine chemicals, functional food utility and ...

Changes in protein N-glycosylation during the fruit development and ripening in melting-type peach

open access: yesFood Materials Research, 2021
The posttranslational modification of proteins with complex carbohydrate moieties (glycosylation) regulates the process of fruit ripening. Exoglycosidases are enzymes that can trim this protein glycosylation and are therefore considered to be important ...
