Biosynthetic Glycan Labeling [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the American Chemical Society, 2021
ABSTRACTGlycans are ubiquitous and play important biological roles, yet chemical methods for probing their structure and function within cells remain limited. Strategies for studying other biomacromolecules, such as proteins, often exploit chemoselective reactions for covalent modification, capture, or imaging.

A brief history of galectin evolution

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2023
Galectins are a family of carbohydrate-binding proteins found in vertebrates in great abundance and diversity in terms of both structure and ligand-binding properties as well as physiological function.

Variable Domain N-Linked Glycans Acquired During Antigen-Specific Immune Responses Can Contribute to Immunoglobulin G Antibody Stability

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2018
Immunoglobulin G (IgG) can contain N-linked glycans in the variable domains, the so-called Fab glycans, in addition to the Fc glycans in the CH2 domains.

Probing Virus–Glycan Interactions Using Glycan Microarrays [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Glycan microarrays are surfaces that contain immobilized oligosaccharides or glycoconjugates and have proven useful in probing the interactions between glycan-binding proteins (GBPs) and individual glycans. Such glycan microarrays have been especially important in studying virus-glycan interactions, as most viruses express one or more GBPs important ...

Anaplasma marginale Infection of Dermacentor andersoni Primary Midgut Cell Culture Is Dependent on Fucosylated Glycans

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2022
Tick midgut is the primary infection site required by tick-borne pathogens to initiate their development for transmission. Despite the biological significance of this organ, cell cultures derived exclusively from tick midgut tissues are unavailable and ...

Cellular O-Glycome Reporter/Amplification to explore O-glycans of living cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Protein O-glycosylation has key roles in many biological processes, but the repertoire of O-glycans synthesized by cells is difficult to determine. Here we describe an approach termed Cellular O-Glycome Reporter/Amplification (CORA), a sensitive method ...

The Role of Histo-Blood Group Antigens and Microbiota in Human Norovirus Replication in Zebrafish Larvae

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum, 2022
Human norovirus (HuNoV) is the major agent for viral gastroenteritis, causing >700 million infections yearly. Fucose-containing carbohydrates named histo-blood group antigens (HBGAs) are known (co)receptors for HuNoV.

Targeting Galectins With Glycomimetics

open access: yesFrontiers in Chemistry, 2020
Among glycan-binding proteins, galectins, β-galactoside-binding lectins, exhibit relevant biological roles and are implicated in many diseases, such as cancer and inflammation.

The Role of Host Cell Glycans on Virus Infectivity: The SARS‐CoV‐2 Case

open access: yesAdvanced Science, 2023
Glycans are ubiquitously expressed sugars, coating the cell and protein surfaces. They are found on many proteins as either short and branched chains or long chains sticking out from special membrane proteins, known as proteoglycans.
