N-linked glycosylation and homeostasis of the endoplasmic reticulum [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Cell Biology, 2016
As a major site of protein biosynthesis, homeostasis of the endoplasmic reticulum is critical for cell viability. Asparagine linked glycosylation of newly synthesized proteins by the oligosaccharyltransferase plays a central role in ER homeostasis due to the use of protein-linked oligosaccharides as recognition and timing markers for glycoprotein ...

N-Linked Protein Glycosylation in the Endoplasmic Reticulum [PDF]

open access: yesCold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Biology, 2013
The attachment of glycans to asparagine residues of proteins is an abundant and highly conserved essential modification in eukaryotes. The N-glycosylation process includes two principal phases: the assembly of a lipid-linked oligosaccharide (LLO) and the transfer of the oligosaccharide to selected asparagine residues of polypeptide chains.

The N-linking glycosylation system from Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae is required for adhesion and has potential use in glycoengineering [PDF]

open access: yesOpen Biology, 2017
Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae is a mucosal respiratory pathogen causing contagious porcine pleuropneumonia. Pathogenesis studies have demonstrated a major role for the capsule, exotoxins and outer membrane proteins.

Effects of N-linked glycosylation on the creatine transporter [PDF]

open access: yesBiochemical Journal, 2005
The CRT (creatine transporter) is a member of the Na+- and Cl−-dependent neurotransmitter transporter family and is responsible for the import of creatine into cells, and thus is important for cellular energy metabolism. We established for CRT an expression system in HEK-293 cells that allowed biochemical, immunological and functional analysis of CRT ...

Autosomal Recessive Dilated Cardiomyopathy due to DOLK Mutations Results from Abnormal Dystroglycan O-Mannosylation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
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.

Oligosaccharyltransferase: the central enzyme of N‐linked protein glycosylation [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Inherited Metabolic Disease, 2011
AbtractN‐linked glycosylation is one of the most abundant modifications of proteins in eukaryotic organisms. In the central reaction of the pathway, oligosaccharyltransferase (OST), a multimeric complex located at the membrane of the endoplasmic reticulum, transfers a preassembled oligosaccharide to selected asparagine residues within the consensus ...

Structural Insight into the Mechanism of N-Linked Glycosylation by Oligosaccharyltransferase

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2020
Asparagine-linked glycosylation, also known as N-linked glycosylation is an essential and highly conserved post-translational protein modification that occurs in all three domains of life. This modification is essential for specific molecular recognition,

Genomic and Biochemical Analysis of N Glycosylation in the Mushroom-Forming Basidiomycete Schizophyllum commune [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
N-linked glycans of Schizophyllum commune consist of Man(5-9)GlcNAc(2) structures. Lack of further glycan maturation is explained by the absence of genes encoding such functions in this and other homobasidiomycetes.

HIV-1 gp120 N-linked glycosylation differs between plasma and leukocyte compartments

open access: yesVirology Journal, 2008
Background N-linked glycosylation is a major mechanism for minimizing virus neutralizing antibody response and is present on the Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) envelope glycoprotein.
