Conformational implications of asparagine-linked glycosylation.
The effects of cotranslational protein modification on the process of protein folding are poorly understood. Time-resolved fluorescence energy transfer has been used to assess the impact of glycosylation on the conformational dynamics of flexible oligopeptides. The peptide sequences examined are selected from glycoproteins of known three-dimensional structure. The energy transfer modulation ass...
متن کاملChemistry and biology of asparagine-linked glycosylation*
The biosynthesis of glycoprotein conjugates is a complex process that involves the collective action of numerous enzymes. Recent research on the chemistry and biology of asparagine-linked glycosylation in our group has been focused on two speci®c areas. These are the development of potent inhibitors of oligosaccharyl transferase and the investigation of the conformational consequences of the gl...
متن کاملThe expanding horizons of asparagine-linked glycosylation.
Asparagine-linked glycosylation involves the sequential assembly of an oligosaccharide onto a polyisoprenyl donor, followed by the en bloc transfer of the glycan to particular asparagine residues within acceptor proteins. These N-linked glycans play a critical role in a wide variety of biological processes, such as protein folding, cellular targeting and motility, and the immune response. In th...
متن کاملAsparagine-linked glycosylation in the yeast Golgi.
The Golgi complex is the site where the terminal carbohydrate modification of proteins and lipids occurs. These carbohydrates play a variety of biological roles, ranging from the stabilization of glycoprotein structure to the provision of ligands for cell-cell interactions to the regulation of cell surface properties. Progress in our understanding of the biosynthesis and regulation of glycoconj...
متن کاملAsparagine-linked protein glycosylation: from eukaryotic to prokaryotic systems.
Asparagine-linked protein glycosylation is a prevalent protein modification reaction in eukaryotic systems. This process involves the co-translational transfer of a pre-assembled tetradecasaccharide from a dolichyl-pyrophosphate donor to the asparagine side chain of nascent proteins at the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane. Recently, the first such system of N-linked glycosylation was discove...
