The N-linked glycosylation of secretory and membrane proteins is the most complex posttranslational modification known to occur in eukaryotic cells. It has been shown to play critical roles in modulating protein function.

Platelets and Defective N-Glycosylation [PDF]
N-glycans are covalently linked to an asparagine residue in a simple acceptor sequence of proteins, called a sequon. This modification is important for protein folding, enhancing thermodynamic stability, and decreasing abnormal protein aggregation within the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), for the lifetime and for the subcellular localization of proteins ...

The essential endoplasmic reticulum chaperone Rot1 is required for protein N- and O-glycosylation in yeast [PDF]
Rot1 is an essential yeast protein originally shown to be implicated in such diverse processes such as β-1,6-glucan synthesis, actin cytoskeleton dynamics, or lysis of autophagic bodies.

Expanding roles of N-glycosylation in the endoplasmic reticulum. [PDF]
N-linked glycosylation in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), catalyzed by two oligosaccharyltransferase (OST) complexes, has long been viewed as a constitutive post-translational modification. Recent discoveries suggest that OST complexes play a much more plastic and directive role in regulating ER processes.

Studying Lactoferrin N-Glycosylation [PDF]
Lactoferrin is a multifunctional glycoprotein found in the milk of most mammals. In addition to its well-known role of binding iron, lactoferrin carries many important biological functions, including the promotion of cell proliferation and differentiation, and as an anti-bacterial, anti-viral, and anti-parasitic protein.

Unraveling the Mechanism of Protein N-Glycosylation [PDF]
Asparagine-linked glycosylation is the most ubiquitous protein co-translational modification in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). The enzyme that catalyzes this process is called oligosaccharyl transferase (OT). It catalyzes the transfer of an oligosaccharyl moiety (Glc3Man9GlcNAc2) from the dolichol-linked pyrophosphate donor to the side chain of Asn ...

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.

The Impact of N-Glycosylation on the Functions of Polysialyltransferases [PDF]
Poly-alpha-2,8-sialic acid (polysialic acid) is a post-translational modification of the neural cell adhesion molecule (NCAM) and an important regulator of neuronal cell-cell interactions. The synthesis of polysialic acid depends on the two polysialyltransferases ST8SiaII and ST8SiaIV.
