Herpes Simplex Virus 1 Entry Glycoproteins Form Complexes before and during Membrane Fusion
Herpesviruses—ubiquitous pathogens that cause persistent infections—have some of the most complex cell entry mechanisms. Entry of the prototypical herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) requires coordinated efforts of 4 glycoproteins, gB, gD, gH, and gL.

Saccharomyces uvarum mannoproteins stimulate a humoral immune response in mice
Yeasts discarded in industrial processes can be used as a nutritional supplement and to extract cellular components with biotechnological aims. In this study, the humoral immune response of Swiss mice treated with mannoproteins (MP) from the yeast ...

Glycoprotein Processing and Glycoprotein Processing Inhibitors [PDF]
Considerable evidence is now accumulating from both in vivo and in vitro studies that the oligosaccharide chains of the plant N-linked glycoproteins undergo modification or processing reactions after the oligosaccharide has been transferred from its lipid-linked oligosaccharide intermediate to the protein.

Structure of P-glycoprotein Reveals a Molecular Basis for Poly-Specific Drug Binding
P-glycoprotein (P-gp) detoxifies cells by exporting hundreds of chemically unrelated toxins but has been implicated in multidrug resistance (MDR) in the treatment of cancers.
