Emerging field: O-GlcNAcylation in ferroptosis
In 2012, researchers proposed a non-apoptotic, iron-dependent form of cell death caused by lipid peroxidation called ferroptosis. During the past decade, a comprehensive understanding of ferroptosis has emerged. Ferroptosis is closely associated with the tumor microenvironment, cancer, immunity, aging, and tissue damage.

Solving the mystery of human sleep schedules one mutation at a time. [PDF]
Sleep behavior remains one of the most enigmatic areas of life. The unanswered questions range from "why do we sleep?" to "how we can improve sleep in today's society?" Identification of mutations responsible for altered circadian regulation of human ...

O-GlcNAcylation Is Essential for Autophagy in Cardiomyocytes [PDF]
Since both O-GlcNAcylation and autophagy sense intracellular nutrient level, the alteration of those two pathways plays substantial roles in the progression of heart failure. Hence, determining the relationship between O-GlcNAcylation and autophagy is imperative to understand, prevent, and treat heart failure.

dbOGAP - An Integrated Bioinformatics Resource for Protein O-GlcNAcylation
Background Protein O-GlcNAcylation (or O-GlcNAc-ylation) is an O-linked glycosylation involving the transfer of β-N-acetylglucosamine to the hydroxyl group of serine or threonine residues of proteins.

Protein O-GlcNAcylation in multiple immune cells and its therapeutic potential
O-GlcNAcylation is a post-translational modification of proteins that involves the addition of O-GlcNAc to serine or threonine residues of nuclear or cytoplasmic proteins, catalyzed by O-GlcNAc transferase (OGT).

Ferroptosis is a form of regulated cell death characterized by iron-dependent accumulation of lipid hydroperoxides to lethal levels. YAP has been reported to play a pivotal role in controlling ferroptotic death, and the expression of YAP is enhanced and ...

O-GlcNAcase:promiscuous hexosaminidase or key regulator of O-GlcNAc signalling? [PDF]
O-GlcNAc signaling is regulated by an opposing pair of enzymes: O-GlcNAc transferase installs and O-GlcNAcase (OGA) removes the modification from proteins.

Chemical approaches to study O-GlcNAcylation [PDF]
The enzymatic addition of a single β-D-N-acetylglucosamine sugar molecule on serine and/or threonine residues of protein chains is referred to as O-GlcNAcylation. This novel form of post-translational modification, first reported in 1984, is extremely abundant on nuclear and cytoplasmic proteins and has site specific cycling dynamics comparable to that
