Uncommon N-Glycan Structures in Anhydrobiotic Tardigrades. [PDF]
We characterized the N-glycosylation profiles of anhydrobiotic tardigrades, R. varieornatus and H. exemplaris, identifying high-mannose, paucimannose, and complex-type oligosaccharides, while hybrid-type glycans were undetectable. Notably, paucimannose-type oligosaccharides accounted for 39% of the N-glycans in R. varieornatus and 17% in H. exemplaris,

Species-specific N-glycan patterns in animal and human breast milk samples [PDF]
The main components of milk are protein, fat and carbohydrates. Glycans are complex carbohydrate structures covalently bound to proteins and lipids or exist freely in solutions.

Identification of a free-N-glycan with difucosylated type-1 lactosamine in cancerous tissue and its validation for cancer diagnosis by urinary testing [PDF]
Numerous urinary acidic free-glycan tumor marker candidates have been identified based on the glycan structure profiles of human cancer tissues. In this study, to identify novel glycan tumor markers, we performed precise glycan structural analysis ...

Recent advances in N-glycan biomarker discovery among human diseases. [PDF]
N-glycans play important roles in a variety of biological processes. In recent years, analytical technologies with high resolution and sensitivity have advanced exponentially, enabling analysts to investigate N-glycomic changes in different states. Specific glycan and glycosylation signatures have been identified in multiple diseases, including cancer,

Production and N-glycan engineering of Varlilumab in Nicotiana benthamiana
N-glycan engineering has dramatically evolved for the development and quality control of recombinant antibodies. Fc region of IgG contains two N-glycans whose galactose terminals on Fc-glycan have been shown to increase the stability of CH2 domain and ...

The Impact of Glycoengineering on the Endoplasmic Reticulum Quality Control System in Yeasts
Yeasts are widely used and established production hosts for biopharmaceuticals. Despite of tremendous advances on creating human-type N-glycosylation, N-glycosylated biopharmaceuticals manufactured with yeasts are missing on the market.

N-Glycans in cancer progression [PDF]
N-Glycan branching in the medial-Golgi generates ligands for lattice-forming lectins (e.g., galectins) that regulate surface levels of glycoproteins including epidermal growth factor (EGF) and transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) receptors. Moreover, functional classes of glycoproteins differ in N-glycan multiplicities (number of N-glycans ...
