Mucin-Type O-Glycosylation in the Drosophila Nervous System
Mucin-type O-glycosylation, a predominant type of O-glycosylation, is an evolutionarily conserved posttranslational modification in animals. Mucin-type O-glycans are often found on mucins in the mucous membranes of the digestive tract.

Glycans and Glycan-Binding Proteins in Atherosclerosis [PDF]
AbstractComplex glycans are readily accessible on the endothelium and on cell and plasma components. They interact with glycan-binding proteins which translate their structure into function. Advanced analytical tools are available to investigate their structure and functional interactions.

Investigating virus–glycan interactions using glycan microarrays [PDF]
While all viruses must transit the plasma membrane of mammalian cells to initiate infection, we know little about the complex processes involved in viral attachment, which commonly involve recognition of glycans by viral proteins. Glycan microarrays derived from both synthetic glycans and natural glycans isolated through shotgun glycomics approaches ...

Characterization of recombinant human lactoferrin N-glycans expressed in the milk of transgenic cows. [PDF]
Lactoferrin (LF) is one of the most abundant bioactive glycoproteins in human milk. Glycans attached through N-glycosidic bonds may contribute to Lactoferrin functional activities. In contrast, LF is present in trace amounts in bovine milk.

Glycan microarrays of fluorescently-tagged natural glycans [PDF]
This review discusses the challenges facing research in 'functional glycomics' and the novel technologies that are being developed to advance the field. The structural complexity of glycans and glycoconjugates makes studies of both their structures and recognition difficult. However, these intricate structures can be captured from their natural sources,

An Efficient and Economical N-Glycome Sample Preparation Using Acetone Precipitation
Due to the critical role of the glycome in organisms and its close connections with various diseases, much time and effort have been dedicated to glycomics-related studies in the past decade.

Protein glycosylation as a diagnostic and prognostic marker of chronic inflammatory gastrointestinal and liver diseases [PDF]
Glycans are sequences of carbohydrates that are added to proteins or lipids to modulate their structure and function. Glycans modify proteins required for regulation of immune cells, and alterations have been associated with inflammatory conditions.

Rationally designed immunogens enable immune focusing following SARS-CoV-2 spike imprinting
Summary: Eliciting antibodies to surface-exposed viral glycoproteins can generate protective responses that control and prevent future infections. Targeting conserved sites may reduce the likelihood of viral escape and limit the spread of related viruses
