Glycosylation focuses sequence variation in the influenza A virus H1 hemagglutinin globular domain. [PDF]

PLoS Pathogens, 2010
Antigenic drift in the influenza A virus hemagglutinin (HA) is responsible for seasonal reformulation of influenza vaccines. Here, we address an important and largely overlooked issue in antigenic drift: how does the number and location of glycosylation ...

Epigenetic Regulation of Glycosylation

, 2021
Expression of glycosylation-related genes (or glycogenes) is strictly regulated by transcription factors and epigenetic processes, both in normal and in pathological conditions.

Unraveling 4‐Phenylbutyrate's Therapeutic Role in SLC6A1 Disorders: Pharmacochaperoning Over HDAC Inhibition

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Variants in SLC6A1, encoding the GABA transporter 1 (GAT‐1), cause epilepsy, autism spectrum disorder, and developmental delay via loss of GABA uptake, impaired trafficking, and ER retention. We previously found that 4‐Phenylbutyrate (PBA), an FDA‐approved drug, restores GABA uptake and reduces seizures in SLC6A1‐related disorders ...

The Comprehensive Live Cell‐Based Cytotoxicity Assay for Monitoring Disease Activity and Guiding Rescue Therapy in Acute Attacks of NMOSD

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) is a devastating neurological disease that lacks serological biomarkers that can accurately reflect disease activity. We established a live cell‐based assay (LCBA) using serum with endogenous complement to quantify the overall cytotoxicity, offering a novel functional tool for monitoring

Refining the genetics of muscular dystrophies with defective glycosylation of dystroglycan [PDF]

, 2010
The aberrant glycosylation of α-dystroglycan is associated with a subset of clinically heterogeneous muscular dystrophies collectively referred to as dystroglycanopathies.

Transgenic Overexpression of LARGE Induces alpha-Dystroglycan Hyperglycosylation in Skeletal and Cardiac Muscle [PDF]

, 2010
Background: LARGE is one of seven putative or demonstrated glycosyltransferase enzymes defective in a common group of muscular dystrophies with reduced glycosylation of alpha-dystroglycan.

Route Efficiency Assessment and Review of the Synthesis of β-Nucleosides via N-Glycosylation of Nucleobases [PDF]

, 2020
Instead of focusing on maximizing glycosylation yield, future syntheses of nucleosides via N-glycosylation should aim to use shorter routes, fewer protecting groups and less chromatography to achieve more efficient and sustainable processes, as this E ...

Juvenile Huntington Disease With Cerebellar‐Predominant Atrophy Identified by Genome Sequencing

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Juvenile Huntington disease accounts for a small fraction of Huntington disease cases and is driven by the largest trinucleotide repeat expansions. We describe a 6‐year‐old boy with progressive global regression, generalized dystonia, and epilepsy, in whom serial imaging showed striking cerebellar‐predominant atrophy with an initially normal ...

Glycosylation and Disease

, 2018
Glycosylation is the process of attachment of carbohydrates (glycans) to proteins and lipids to form the glycoproteins and glycolipids found in eukaryotic organisms. Glycosylation reactions are amongst the most common posttranslational modifications that

Remote Activation of Wnt Signaling and Cell Proliferation by E‐Cadherin Magnetomechanical Stimulation

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A pioneering magnetogenetic toolkit enables non‐invasive, precise spatiotemporal modulation of intracellular Wnt/β‐catenin signaling. Functionalized magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs@E/EC15) target cellular E‐cadherins to generate localized magnetomechanical forces under low‐intensity magnetic fields.
