‘O-GlcNAc Code’ Mediated Biological Functions of Downstream Proteins
As one of the post-translational modifications, O-linked β-N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc) modification (O-GlcNAcylation) often occurs on serine (Ser) and threonine (Thr) residues of specific substrate cellular proteins via the addition of O-GlcNAc ...

The EGF repeat-specific O-GlcNAc-transferase Eogt interacts with notch signaling and pyrimidine metabolism pathways in Drosophila. [PDF]
The O-GlcNAc transferase Eogt modifies EGF repeats in proteins that transit the secretory pathway, including Dumpy and Notch. In this paper, we show that the Notch ligands Delta and Serrate are also substrates of Eogt, that mutation of a putative UDP ...

IntroductionAberrant activation of Extracellular Signal-Regulated Kinase (ERK) signaling is associated with Alzheimer’s disease (AD) pathogenesis. For example, enhanced ERK signal activation mediated by Apolipoprotein E4 (APOE4), which is a critical ...

HCF-1 Is Cleaved in the Active Site of O-GlcNAc Transferase [PDF]
Dual-Duty Active Site O-linked N-acetylglucosamine transferase (OGT) catalyzes the addition of N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNac) to serine or threonine residues, influencing the localization and function of proteins. Because its activity is sensitive to the nutrient uridine diphosphate (UDP)–GlcNac, OGT has been proposed to regulate ...

Fueling the fire: emerging role of the hexosamine biosynthetic pathway in cancer
Altered metabolism and deregulated cellular energetics are now considered a hallmark of all cancers. Glucose, glutamine, fatty acids, and amino acids are the primary drivers of tumor growth and act as substrates for the hexosamine biosynthetic pathway ...

A mutant O-GlcNAcase enriches Drosophila developmental regulators [PDF]
YesProtein O-GlcNAcylation is a reversible post-translational modification of serines/threonines on nucleocytoplasmic proteins. It is cycled by the enzymes O-GlcNAc transferase (OGT) and O-GlcNAc hydrolase (O-GlcNAcase or OGA).

O-GlcNAc transferase regulates transcriptional activity of human Oct4 [PDF]
O-linked β-N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc) is a single sugar modification found on many different classes of nuclear and cytoplasmic proteins. Addition of this modification, by the enzyme O-linked N-acetylglucosamine transferase (OGT), is dynamic and inducible. One major class of proteins modified by O-GlcNAc is transcription factors. O-GlcNAc regulates

O-GlcNAcylation, a post-translational modification consisting of O-linked N-acetylglucosamine attached to serine and threonine residues, occurs in thousands of cytoplasmic, nuclear, and mitochondrial proteins but has been reported for relatively few ...

Comprehensive mapping of O-GlcNAc modification sites using a chemically cleavable tag [PDF]
The post-translational modification of serine or threonine residues of proteins with a single N-acetylglucosamine monosaccharide (O-GlcNAcylation) is essential for cell survival and function.

Human T cell glycosylation and implications on immune therapy for cancer [PDF]
Glycosylation is an important post-translational modification, giving rise to a diverse and abundant repertoire of glycans on the cell surface, collectively known as the glycome.
