Mechanisms of productive folding and endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation of glycoproteins and non-glycoproteins [PDF]
, 2021 BACKGROUND: The quality of proteins destined for the secretory pathway is ensured by two distinct mechanisms in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER): productive folding of newly synthesized proteins, which is assisted by ER-localized molecular chaperones and ...

Galactose starvation in a bloodstream form Trypanosoma brucei UDP-glucose 4'-epimerase conditional null mutant [PDF]
, 2006 Galactose metabolism is essential for the survival of Trypanosoma brucei, the etiological agent of African sleeping sickness. T. brucei hexose transporters are unable to transport galactose, which is instead obtained through the epimerization of UDP ...

Carbohydrate composition of rat intestine surface mucus layer after ceftriaxone treatment [PDF]
The Ukrainian Biochemical Journal, 2016 The epidemiological studies have shown that antibiotic treatment increases the susceptibility to inflammatory bowel disease development. The disturbance of mucus layer integrity might be one of the possible mechanisms. The aim of the present study was to
