True significance of N-acetylglucosaminyltransferases GnT-III, V and α1,6 fucosyltransferase in epithelial-mesenchymal transition and cancer.

open access: yesMolecular Aspects of Medicine, 2020
It is well known that numerous cancer-related changes occur in glycans that are attached to glycoproteins, glycolipids and proteoglycans on the cell surface and these changes in structure and the expression of the glycans are largely regulated by ...

Fringe controls naïve CD4(+)T cells differentiation through modulating notch signaling in asthmatic rat models. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
The ability of Notch signaling to regulate T helper cell development and differentiation has been widely accepted. Fringe, O-fucose-β1,3-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferases modulate Notch receptor expression and promote the Notch signaling pathway through ...

GnT1IP-L specifically inhibits MGAT1 in the Golgi via its luminal domain

open access: yeseLife, 2015
Mouse GnT1IP-L, and membrane-bound GnT1IP-S (MGAT4D) expressed in cultured cells inhibit MGAT1, the N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase that initiates the synthesis of hybrid and complex N-glycans.

Identification and functional characterization of a highly divergent N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase I (TbGnTI) in Trypanosoma brucei [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Trypanosoma brucei expresses a diverse repertoire of N-glycans, ranging from oligomannose and paucimannose structures to exceptionally large complex N-glycans.

Minimal catalytic domain of N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase V [PDF]

open access: yesGlycobiology, 2000
UDP-GlcNAc: Manalpha1-6Manbeta-R beta1-6 N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase V (EC 2.4.1.155, GlcNAc-TV) is a Golgi enzyme that substitutes the trimannosyl core in the biosynthetic pathway for complex-type N-linked glycans. GlcNAc-TV activity is regulated by oncogenes frequently activated in cancer cells ( ras, src, and her2/neu ) and by activators of T ...

6″-Azido-6″-deoxy-UDP-N-acetylglucosamine as a glycosyltransferase substrate [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
6 ''-Azido-6 ''-deoxy-UDP-N-acetylglucosamine (UDP-6Az-GlcNAc) is a potential alternate substrate for N-acetylglucosaminyltransferases. This compound could be used to generate various glycoconjugates bearing an azide functionality that could in turn be ...

Substrate Engagement and Catalytic Mechanisms of N-Acetylglucosaminyltransferase V [PDF]

open access: yesACS Catalysis, 2020
α-Mannoside β-1,6-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase V (MGAT5) is a mammalian glycosyltransferase involved in complex N-glycan formation, which strongly drives cancer when overexpressed. Despite intense interest, the catalytic mechanism of MGAT5 is not known in detail, precluding therapeutic exploitation.

Chemoenzymatic Synthesis of Heparan Sulfate Oligosaccharides by a Covalent Catch‐and‐Release Approach

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
A glycan having a hydrazide tag enables chemoenzymatic synthesis of HS oligosaccharides. The hydrazide can, under mild acidic conditions, react with an aldehyde‐containing resin to give an immobilized hydrazone that is stable under neutral conditions, allowing washing. The product can be released by transiminolysis using aqueous hydroxylamine to give a

Overexpression of N-acetylglucosaminyltransferases III and V in human melanoma cells. Implications for MCAM N-glycosylation.

open access: yesBiochimie, 2014
An important role in cancer pathogenesis is attributed to N-glycans with "bisecting" N-acetylglucosamine and beta1-6 branches but the exact mechanisms still remain to be elucidated. Two structures are formed by Golgi beta-1,4-mannosyl-glycoprotein 4-beta-
