Deficiency of adenosine deaminase 2 is characterized by vasculitis, early-onset strokes, immunodeficiency, and bone marrow failure. We describe a novel pathogenic mutation affecting a consensus N-linked glycosylation sequence and illustrate the essential role of glycosylation in the biology of ADA2.

Background/purpose: Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) is a pathogen with a negative economic impact on the global swine industry. In 2019, a suspected highly pathogenic strain, NPUST-108-929/2019 (108-929), was isolated from a pig farm in Pingtung with an outbreak of high mortality and analyzed. The characteristics of PRRSV 108-929 have barely been studied.

Missense mutations in the EPHA1 receptor tyrosine kinase have been identified in Alzheimer's patients. To gain insight into their potential role in disease pathogenesis, we investigated the effects of four of these mutations. We show that the P460L mutation in the second fibronectin type III (FN2) domain drastically reduces EPHA1 cell surface localization while increasing tyrosine phosphorylation of the cell surface localized receptor.

β-Klotho (KLB), a type I transmembrane protein, serves as an obligate co-receptor determining the tissue-specific actions of endocrine fibroblast growth factors (FGFs). Despite accumulative evidence suggesting the occurrence of N-glycosylation in the KLB protein, the precise N-glycosites, glycoforms, and the impacts of N-glycosylation on the expression and function of the KLB protein remain unexplored. Employing a mass spectrometry-based approach, a total of 12 N-glycosites displaying heterogeneous site occupancy and glycoforms were identified within the extracellular region of the recombinant human KLB protein.
