Objective: The intestine is an important organ for nutrient metabolism via absorption and endocrine systems. Nutrients regulate O-GlcNAcylation, a post-translational modification of various proteins by O-GlcNAc transferase (OGT). We have previously shown

Nutrient sensor O-GlcNAc transferase controls cancer lipid metabolism via SREBP-1 regulation [PDF]
Elevated O-GlcNAcylation is associated with disease states such as diabetes and cancer. O-GlcNAc transferase (OGT) is elevated in multiple cancers and inhibition of this enzyme genetically or pharmacologically inhibits oncogenesis.

The conserved threonine-rich region of the HCF-1PRO repeat activates promiscuous OGT:UDP-GlcNAc glycosylation and proteolysis activities [PDF]
O-Linked GlcNAc transferase (OGT) possesses dual glycosyltransferase-protease activities. OGT thereby stably glycosylates serines and threonines of numerous proteins and, via a transient glutamate glycosylation, cleaves a single known substrate-the so ...

O-Glcnac Modulates Nasal Inverted Papilloma Progression And Malignancy
Aim or purpose: This study investigated the role of O-GlcNAc glycosylation in nasal inverted papilloma (NIP) pathogenesis and malignant transformation, addressing its understudied mechanistic relevance (Zhao et al., 2016, Laryngoscope 126:E141-7 ...

Adipocyte OGT governs diet-induced hyperphagia and obesity [PDF]
AbstractPalatable foods (fat and sweet) induce hyperphagia, and facilitate the development of obesity. Whether and how overnutrition increases appetite through the adipose-to-brain axis is unclear. O-linked beta-D-N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc) transferase (OGT) couples nutrient cues to O-GlcNAcylation of intracellular proteins at serine/threonine ...

Microarray Discovery of New OGT Substrates: The Medulloblastoma Oncogene OTX2 Is O-GlcNAcylated [PDF]
O-GlcNAc transferase (OGT) is a serine/threonine glycosyltransferase that is essential for development and continues to be critically important throughout life. Understanding OGT’s complex biology requires identifying its substrates.

The nutrient sensor OGT in PVN neurons regulates feeding [PDF]
When enough isn't enough Overeating and obesity are rapidly becoming worldwide problems. Normally, mice do not overeat—they balance their caloric intake with their caloric needs. Lagerlöf et al.

Insights into the Ecological Roles and Evolution of Methyl-Coenzyme M Reductase-Containing Hot Spring Archaea [PDF]
Several recent studies have shown the presence of genes for the key enzyme associated with archaeal methane/alkane metabolism, methyl-coenzyme M reductase (Mcr), in metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs) divergent to existing archaeal lineages.
