PMID: 28077298
Biochim Biophys Acta Gen Subj. 2017 Apr;1861(4):699-714. doi: 10.1016/j.bbagen.2017.01.009. Epub 2017 Jan 08.

BACKGROUND: Insects are significant to the environment, agriculture, health and biotechnology. Many of these aspects display some relationship to glycosylation, e.g., in case of pathogen binding or production of humanised antibodies; for a long time, it has been considered...

Exp Cell Res. 2014 Jan 01;320(1):153-63. doi: 10.1016/j.yexcr.2013.09.021. Epub 2013 Oct 04.

Hyaluronan is a ubiquitous glycosaminoglycan involved in embryonic development, inflammation and cancer. In mammals, three hyaluronan synthase isoenzymes (HAS1-3) inserted in the plasma membrane produce hyaluronan directly on cell surface. The mRNA level and enzymatic activity of HAS1 are...

Two approaches for the synthesis of the thiodisaccharide β-S-GlcA(1→3)β-S-AllNAc are described here. The target disaccharide was a C-3 epimer and thio-analogue of the hyaluronic acid repetitive unit, tuned with a thiopropargyl anomeric group for further click conjugation. Thus, we...

Chem Biol Drug Des. 2013 Dec;82(6):756-60. doi: 10.1111/cbdd.12204. Epub 2013 Oct 25.

Glycyrrhizin, a saponin, and its aglycone glycyrrhetinic acid are natural products found in the Liquorice (Glycyrrhiza glabra L.) root extract. This saponin is known for its in vitro and in vivo thrombin inhibitory activity. The design and synthesis of...

Biosynthesis of the carbohydrate moieties of arabinogalactan proteins by membrane-bound β-glucuronosyltransferases from radish primary roots.

Planta

Endo M, Kotake T, Watanabe Y, Kimura K, Tsumuraya Y.

Planta. 2013 Dec;238(6):1157-69. doi: 10.1007/s00425-013-1959-0. Epub 2013 Sep 22.

A membrane fraction from etiolated 6-day-old primary radish roots (Raphanus sativus L. var hortensis) contained β-glucuronosyltransferases (GlcATs) involved in the synthesis of the carbohydrate moieties of arabinogalactan proteins (AGPs). The GlcATs transferred [(14)C]GlcA from UDP-[(14)C]GlcA on to β-(1 →...

Structure and anticoagulant activity of fucosylated glycosaminoglycan degraded by deaminative cleavage.

Carbohydrate polymers

Zhao L, Lai S, Huang R, Wu M, Gao N, Xu L, Qin H, Peng W, Zhao J.
PMID: 24053834
Carbohydr Polym. 2013 Nov 06;98(2):1514-23. doi: 10.1016/j.carbpol.2013.07.063. Epub 2013 Aug 06.

Fucosylated glycosaminoglycans (FGs) are complex glycosaminoglycans that exhibit potent anticoagulant activity. To study the relationship between molecular size and biological activity, oligosaccharides with (2,5)-anhydro-D-talose units at new reducing ends were prepared by hydrazine deacetylation and nitrous acid depolymerization. The...

Cooperation of binding sites at the hydrophilic domain of cell-surface sulfatase Sulf1 allows for dynamic interaction of the enzyme with its substrate heparan sulfate.

Biochimica et biophysica acta

Milz F, Harder A, Neuhaus P, Breitkreuz-Korff O, Walhorn V, Lübke T, Anselmetti D, Dierks T.
PMID: 23891937

BACKGROUND: Sulf1 is a cell-surface sulfatase removing internal 6-O-sulfate groups from heparan sulfate (HS) chains. Thereby it modulates the activity of HS-dependent growth factors. For HS interaction Sulf1 employs a unique hydrophilic domain (HD).METHODS: Affinity-chromatography, AFM-single-molecule force spectroscopy (SMFS)...

Phytoplankton inhabiting oligotrophic ocean gyres actively reduce their phosphorus demand by replacing polar membrane phospholipids with those lacking phosphorus. Although the synthesis of nonphosphorus lipids is well documented in some heterotrophic bacterial lineages, phosphorus-free lipid synthesis in oligotrophic marine...
