AP2M1 Is a Candidate Gene for Microcephaly and Intellectual Disability in 3q27.1 Deletions

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Deletions of the 3q26.33q27.2 region appear to correlate with a distinct phenotype, although there are few reported cases. Here, we present seven previously unreported individuals carrying de novo 3q27 deletions (under 5 Mb), which include the AP2M1 (adaptor‐related protein complex 2, mu‐1 subunit) gene and summarize data from 12 previously ...

Impact of Glycoclustering on Stiffening of MUC5AC Peptides Revealed by High‐Efficiency Synthesis

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Peptides featuring a previously unattained degree of glycoclustering were obtained by fully automated solid‐phase synthesis in 1,3‐dioxolane/Tween‐20 and diselenide–selenoester ligation. Circular Dichroism (CD) and Pulsed Electron‐Electron Double Resonance (PELDOR) measurements of densely GalNAcylated MUC5AC multi‐tandem repeat peptides provided ...

A Drosophila model of prion disease and its metabolic changes in the brain

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
We developed a Drosophila model for prion disease, and flies were capable of expressing the hamster prion protein (HaPrP) under the control of the GAL4/UAS system. The model exhibited some characteristics of the disease in mammals and displayed alterations in protein, sphingolipid, and carbohydrate metabolism. Preliminary applications have demonstrated

Rapid Synthesis and Diversification of Thymine‐Containing Bridged Nucleic Acids Through Cascade Cyclization Reactions

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Several processes are reported that enable the rapid diversification of bridged nucleoside analogues (NAs) starting from a common and readily prepared fluorohydrin. Also, several clinically relevant bridged nucleosides are now prepared in as few as three synthetic steps, creating new opportunities for examining structure‐activity relationships within ...

Transcriptomics as a predictor of biopharmaceutically favourable glycan profiles

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology
N-glycosylation plays a crucial role in defining the pharmacological properties and efficacy of therapeutic proteins, commonly referred to as biologics. The inherent complexity and lack of a templated process in glycosylation leads to a wide variation in

Glycosylation and rheumatic disease

open access: yesBiochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular Basis of Disease, 1998
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and other rheumatic diseases are associated with a significant defect in the galactosyltransferase enzyme that results in a profound change in the galactosylation of immunoglobulin G. This change has been demonstrated to be integrally associated with pathogenic mechanisms associated with inflammation in RA.

Biallelic Variants in the DARS2 Gene as a Novel Cause of Axonal Charcot–Marie–Tooth Disease

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Charcot–Marie–Tooth (CMT) disease is a heterogeneous group of genetic neuropathies, with >90 genes identified. Several aminoacyl‐tRNA synthetases have been linked to CMT. DARS2, encoding the mitochondrial aspartyl‐tRNA synthetase, has been typically associated with leukoencephalopathy with brainstem and spinal cord involvement and lactate ...
