BackgroundPompe disease (PD) is a metabolic myopathy caused by α-glucosidase (GAA) deficiency and characterized by generalized glycogen storage. Heterogeneous GAA gene mutations result in wide phenotypic variability, ranging from the severe classic ...

Herpes simplex viruses (HSV) use multiple and sequential receptors to enter host cells. HSV glycoprotein D (gD) has been implicated in binding to cellular receptors that facilitate virus penetration into cells. We used soluble forms of gD that were expressed in Chinese hamster ovary cells to characterize and identify a putative cellular receptor for ...

Targeting MAN1B1 potently enhances bladder cancer antitumor immunity via deglycosylation of CD47
Abstract Background Only a few bladder cancer patients benefit from anti‐programmed cell death protein 1/programmed cell death ligand 1 immunotherapy. The cluster of differentiation 47 (CD47) plays an important role in tumor immune evasion. CD47 is a highly glycosylated protein, however, the mechanisms governing CD47 glycosylation and its potential ...

Rhabdomyosarcoma targeting with tuned porous silicon nanoparticles
We describe porous silicon nanoparticles (pSiNP) chemically functionalized with an analog of mannose 6‐phosphate (AMFA) and a porphyrin derivative to target aggressive pediatric Rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) tumor cells.

Glycosidases Interact Selectively With Mannose‐6‐Phosphate Receptors of Bull Spermatozoa
ABSTRACTGlycosidases may play a role in sperm maturation during epididymal transit. In this work, we describe the interaction of these enzymes with bull spermatozoa. We found that β‐galactosidase associated to spermatozoa can be released under low ionic strength conditions, whereas the interaction of N‐acetyl‐β‐D‐glucosaminidase and β‐glucuronidase ...

Reactivity of Carbohydrate Phosphodiesters, Potential Targets of Antibacterial Agents
A simple carbohydrate phosphodiester model was synthesized to compare the reactivity of phosphodiester bonds within carbohydrates and RNA. ABSTRACT While monosaccharide units in bacterial carbohydrates may be linked with phosphodiester bonds, human carbohydrates exclusively contain glycosidic linkages.
