CH-π Interactions in Glycan Recognition.

open access: yesACS Chemical Biology, 2021
Carbohydrate recognition is crucial for biological processes ranging from development to immune system function to host-pathogen interactions. The proteins that bind glycans are faced with a daunting task: to coax these hydrophilic species out of water ...

Glycan microarrays of fluorescently-tagged natural glycans [PDF]

open access: yesGlycoconjugate Journal, 2015
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,

mRNA vaccines against SARS-CoV-2 induce comparably low long-term IgG Fc galactosylation and sialylation levels but increasing long-term IgG4 responses compared to an adenovirus-based vaccine

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2023
BackgroundThe new types of mRNA-containing lipid nanoparticle vaccines BNT162b2 and mRNA-1273 and the adenovirus-based vaccine AZD1222 were developed against SARS-CoV-2 and code for its spike (S) protein.

Glycan Labeling and Analysis in Cells and In Vivo.

open access: yesAnnual Review of Analytical Chemistry, 2021
As one of the major types of biomacromolecules in the cell, glycans play essential functional roles in various biological processes. Compared with proteins and nucleic acids, the analysis of glycans in situ has been more challenging.

Glycan Fingerprints: Calculating Diversity in Glycan Libraries [PDF]

open access: yesACS Chemical Biology, 2012
Carbohydrate libraries printed in glycan micorarray format have had a great impact on the high-throughput analysis of the specificity of a wide range of mammalian, plant, and bacterial lectins. Chemical and chemo-enzymatic synthesis allows the construction of diverse glycan libraries but requires substantial effort and resources.

Analysis of the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein glycan shield reveals implications for immune recognition

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2020
Here we have generated 3D structures of glycoforms of the spike (S) glycoprotein from SARS-CoV-2, based on reported 3D structures and glycomics data for the protein produced in HEK293 cells.

Glycans and Glycan-Binding Proteins as Regulators and Potential Targets in Leukocyte Recruitment

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
Leukocyte recruitment is a highly controlled cascade of interactions between proteins expressed by the endothelium and circulating leukocytes. The involvement of glycans and glycan-binding proteins in the leukocyte recruitment cascade has been well ...

Aeromonas salmonicida binds α2-6 linked sialic acid, which is absent among the glycosphingolipid repertoires from skin, gill, stomach, pyloric caecum, and intestine

open access: yesVirulence, 2022
Carbohydrates can both protect against infection and act as targets promoting infection. Mucins are major components of the slimy mucus layer covering the fish epithelia.

Characterization of Monoclonal Antibody Glycan Heterogeneity Using Hydrophilic Interaction Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2022
Glycosylation is a critical quality attribute of monoclonal antibody (mAb) therapeutics. Hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (HILIC-MS) is an invaluable technology for the characterization of protein glycosylation.

Inhibition of SARS-CoV-2 viral entry upon blocking N- and O-glycan elaboration

open access: yeseLife, 2020
The Spike protein of SARS-CoV-2, its receptor-binding domain (RBD), and its primary receptor ACE2 are extensively glycosylated. The impact of this post-translational modification on viral entry is yet unestablished.
