Regardless of blood group, staying cool, drinking enough fluids, and avoiding direct sun are vital tips to beat the heat ...

Salidroside has been widely used in the cosmetic and medicinal industries. Previously, potential glycosyltransferase UGTBS was obtained for salidroside synthesis. However, the catalytic efficiency ...

In a new study reported in this issue of the EMBO Journal, Brauer et al, reveal the mechanism of LYSET’s action in the M6P-tagging system and uncover an unexpected new role for M6P in the degradation ...

Glycans are chains of sugars that attach to cells through proteins or lipids, changing their chemical characteristics.

Glycosylation was catalyzed by UDP-glycosyltransferase (UGT) and was important for enriching diversity of flavonoids. Chinese bayberry (Morella rubra) has si ...

Understanding the dynamical motions and ligand recognition motifs of heptosyltransferase I (HepI) can be critical to discerning the behavior of other glycosyltransferase (GT) enzymes. Prior studies in ...

Eliminating fucose could improve prospects for development-stage drugs through some combination of reducing toxicity while increasing activity. Applications from early discovery through manufacturing.

This study identifies a glyco-signature relevant for a prognostic use, potentially applicable to resected and unresectable PDAC. Furthermore, it provides new potential therapeutic targets.

Glycosylation of flagellins with pseudaminic acid in the bacterial cytoplasm governed by an unknown type of modular glycosyltransferase harboring an N-terminal substrate binding domain and a ...
