Glycosylation in neuroinflammation: mechanisms, implications, and therapeutic strategies for neurodegenerative diseases

Translational Neurodegeneration
Neuroinflammation is a key pathological mechanism underlying neurodegenerative diseases, and intricately interacts with protein glycosylation. Emerging evidence suggests that aberrant glycosylation disrupts immune homeostasis, activates microglia, and ...

Dynamic glycosylation remodeling in neurological disorders

Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience
Glycosylation, a crucial post-translational modification, involves the covalent attachment of monosaccharides or oligosaccharides to proteins. This process significantly influences protein stability and function.

From glycosylation disorders back to glycosylation: what have we learned? [PDF]

, 2009
Diseases of glycosylation have long remained confined to the rare hematological disorders, the Tn-syndrome [1] and paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria [2].

A Micropeptide Component of the OGDH Complex Modulates ATP Production in the TCA Cycle

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identified a mitochondrial micropeptide encoded by a non‐canonical open reading frame (alt‐ORF) within the CTSB gene. This micropeptide named APPM (ATP production‐promoting micropeptide) is a novel component of the OGDHc complex in the TCA cycle. APPM localizes to the inner mitochondrial membrane and directly binds to OGDH, the E1 subunit of

Switching Spike Plasticity Shapes ACE2 Engagement Across SARS‐CoV‐2 Variants

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Conformational plasticity governs SARS‐CoV‐2 spike function and ACE2 recognition. Using high‐speed AFM and single‐molecule force spectroscopy, we analyzed the ancestral spike and nine variants, revealing progressive rigidification from Delta, variable plasticity in Omicron sublineages, and JN.1 compaction.

Computational analysis reveals non-consensus N-glycosylation sequons in antibody Fab region

mAbs
Protein glycosylation at asparagine typically occurs at a consensus motif. However, recent studies have reported instances of N-glycosylation at non-consensus sites, though the mechanisms and implications of these atypical modifications remain unclear ...

Prediction of O-glycosylation Sites Using Random Forest and GA-Tuned PSO Technique

, 2015
O-glycosylation is one of the main types of the mammalian protein glycosylation; it occurs on the particular site of serine (S) or threonine (T). Several O-glycosylation site predictors have been developed.

A Synthetic Platform for Antibody Junctional Diversification Beyond Natural Constraints

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ARESEC is a synthetic platform that reconstructs functional V(D)J recombination in HEK293T cells. By introducing RSS elements and co‐expressing RAG1/2 and TdT across all three antibody CDRs, it enables programmable junctional diversification and direct generation of high‐affinity variants targeting PD‐1/PD‐L1, overcoming the evolutionary constraints of

An Engineered HR1‐Stem Helix‐HR2 Trimeric Platform for Developing Broad‐Spectrum Coronavirus Vaccines

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Sun et al. report a self‐assembling trimeric subunit vaccine platform termed RHS, which integrates the JN.1 receptor‐binding domain (RBD) with the heptad repeat 1 (HR1), stem helix (SH), and heptad repeat 2 (HR2) regions. The SARS‐CoV‐2 RHS vaccine elicits variant‐reactive RBD‐specific antibodies and cross‐reactive SH‐specific antibodies against ...
