Protein glycosylation in Campylobacter jejuni: partial suppression of pglF by mutation of pseC.

Published: September 2007

Campylobacter jejuni has systems for N- and O-linked protein glycosylation. Although biochemical evidence demonstrated that a pseC mutant in the O-linked pathway accumulated the product of pglF in the N-linked pathway, analyses of transformation frequencies and glycosylation statuses of N-glycosylated proteins indicated a partial suppression of pglF by pseC.

Background: Posttranslational modifications (PTMs) play critical roles in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, the locations of PTM-modified sites across protein secondary structures and regulatory patterns in HCC remain largely uncharacterized.

Methods: Total proteome and nine PTMs (phosphorylation, acetylation, crotonylation, ubiquitination, lactylation, N-glycosylation, succinylation, malonylation, and β-hydroxybutyrylation) in tumor sections and paired normal adjacent tissues derived from 18 HCC patients were systematically profiled by 4D-Label free proteomics analysis combined with PTM-based peptide enrichment.

Comprehensive site- and structure-specific profiling of N-glycosylation of edible bird's nest (EBN) proteome using label-free quantitative glycoproteomics.

Glycoproteins, which are involved in numerous biological functions, are among the most critical functional ingredients in an edible bird's nest (EBN). To gain a comprehensive understanding of the glycoprotein species within EBN, a label-free, site-specific glycoproteomic approach was used to analyze their N-glycoproteins, N-glycopeptides, and N-glycans systematically. A total of 127 N-glycoproteins were identified in EBN, of which 72 were found in house-EBN and 63 in cave-EBN, yielding 4195 and 5649 glycopeptides, respectively.

Abundant polyphenols in Flos Sophorae Immaturus tea (FSIt) exhibited xanthine oxidase (XO) inhibitory activity. However, the XO inhibitory activity of FSIt was closely related to the processing methods. Herein, organic acids were employed as catalysts for polyphenol conversion during heat treatment and applied to enhance the XO inhibitory activity of FSIt; the potential mechanisms were clarified by polyphenols degradation and conversion analysis, omission experiment, and interaction assay.
