Development of a C5-Azidoacetamide-Modified 4-Amino-2,3-Difluorosialic Acid Activity-Based Probe for Labeling of Influenza A Neuraminidases. [PDF]
We report DFSA5Az/DFSA5bio, C5‐azidoacetamide 4‐amino‐2,3‐difluorosialic acid activity‐based probes that trap influenza A viral (IAV) neuraminidases (NA) via a stabilized covalent Tyr‐sialosyl intermediate with hour‐scale reactivation. A bioorthogonal azide enables CuAAC (or one‐step biotin) tagging for activity‐dependent Western‐blot detection at ...

Characterization of recombinant human lactoferrin N-glycans expressed in the milk of transgenic cows. [PDF]
Lactoferrin (LF) is one of the most abundant bioactive glycoproteins in human milk. Glycans attached through N-glycosidic bonds may contribute to Lactoferrin functional activities. In contrast, LF is present in trace amounts in bovine milk.

Comparative Genomics and Virulence Mechanisms to Identify Genes Related to Mucin O-Glycan Degradation and Pathogenicity in a Potentially Multidrug-Resistant Clostridium tertium Strain. [PDF]
The comparative genomic analysis provides information about how C. tertium HGMC01 strain cause disease through mucin glycan degradation, colonization, multidrug resistance, and modulation of immune responses. Moreover, this analysis data suggest that this strain interacts with host cells by degrading mucin in the gut, potentially through recognition or
