Analysis of N-Glycosylation Sites in HIV glycoprotein 160 [PDF]
HIV infection is a condition caused by the human immunodeficiency virus. The condition gradually destroys the immune system, which makes it harder for the body to fight infections. HIV presents a complex knot for scientists to unravel.

Autosomal Recessive Dilated Cardiomyopathy due to DOLK Mutations Results from Abnormal Dystroglycan O-Mannosylation [PDF]
Genetic causes for autosomal recessive forms of dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) are only rarely identified, although they are thought to contribute considerably to sudden cardiac death and heart failure, especially in young children.

SRD5A3 is required for converting polyprenol to dolichol and is mutated in a congenital glycosylation disorder. [PDF]
N-linked glycosylation is the most frequent modification of secreted and membrane-bound proteins in eukaryotic cells, disruption of which is the basis of the congenital disorders of glycosylation (CDGs).

Impact of Yeast Glycosylation Pathway on Cell Integrity and Morphology, Glycosylation, Stefana Petrescu (Ed.), ISBN: 978-953-51-0771-2, InTech, Available from: http://www.intechopen.com/books/glycosylation/impact-of-yeast-glycosylation-pathway-on-cell-integrity-and-morphology [PDF]
Protein glycosylation is a multi step reaction, well conserved in the eukaryotic cells. In N-glycosylation reactions dolichyl phosphate (DolP) serves as a lipid acceptor of sugar residues forming DolPPGlcNAc2Man9Glc3.

Glycosylation and behavioral symptoms in neurological disorders
Glycosylation, the addition of glycans or carbohydrates to proteins, lipids, or other glycans, is a complex post-translational modification that plays a crucial role in cellular function.

A Chemoenzymatic Strategy toward Understanding O-GlcNAc Glycosylation in the Brain [PDF]
Posttranslational modification to proteins represents a fundamental mechanism by which protein function is extended and elaborated. In the brain, modifications such as phosphorylation play critical roles in mediating neuronal communication and ...

Protein glycosylation in the gram-negative gamma proteobacterium photorhabdus luminescens [PDF]
The objective of this research was to investigate the possibility that Photorhabdus luminescens produces glycoproteins and thus contains a protein glycosylation system. P. luminescens is a pathogen of insects and a symbiont of soil nematodes.
