    Intracellular functions of N-linked glycans (2001)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2001-03-28
    Description: N-linked oligosaccharides arise when blocks of 14 sugars are added cotranslationally to newly synthesized polypeptides in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). These glycans are then subjected to extensive modification as the glycoproteins mature and move through the ER via the Golgi complex to their final destinations inside and outside the cell. In the ER and in the early secretory pathway, where the repertoire of oligosaccharide structures is still rather small, the glycans play a pivotal role in protein folding, oligomerization, quality control, sorting, and transport. They are used as universal "tags" that allow specific lectins and modifying enzymes to establish order among the diversity of maturing glycoproteins. In the Golgi complex, the glycans acquire more complex structures and a new set of functions. The division of synthesis and processing between the ER and the Golgi complex represents an evolutionary adaptation that allows efficient exploitation of the potential of oligosaccharides.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Helenius, A -- Aebi, M -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2001 Mar 23;291(5512):2364-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Institute of Biochemistry, Eidgenossische Technische Hochschule Zurich, Universitatstrasse 16, CH-8092 Zurich, Switzerland.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/11269317" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    N-linked glycosylation of folded proteins by the bacterial oligosaccharyltransferase (2006)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2006-11-18
    Description: N-linked protein glycosylation is found in all domains of life. In eukaryotes, it is the most abundant protein modification of secretory and membrane proteins, and the process is coupled to protein translocation and folding. We found that in bacteria, N-glycosylation can occur independently of the protein translocation machinery. In an in vitro assay, bacterial oligosaccharyltransferase glycosylated a folded endogenous substrate protein with high efficiency and folded bovine ribonuclease A with low efficiency. Unfolding the eukaryotic substrate greatly increased glycosylation. We propose that in the bacterial system, glycosylation sites are located in flexible parts of folded proteins, whereas the eukaryotic cotranslational glycosylation evolved to a mechanism presenting the substrate in a flexible form before folding.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Kowarik, Michael -- Numao, Shin -- Feldman, Mario F -- Schulz, Benjamin L -- Callewaert, Nico -- Kiermaier, Eva -- Catrein, Ina -- Aebi, Markus -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2006 Nov 17;314(5802):1148-50.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Institute of Microbiology, Department of Biology, Eidgenossische Technische Hochschule (ETH) Zurich, 8093 Zurich, Switzerland.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17110579" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
