Branch-specific sialylation of IgG-Fc glycans by ST6Gal-I.

18 Oct 2009 Sialylated forms of the Fc fragment of immunoglobulin G, produced by the human alpha2-6 sialyltransferase ST6Gal-I, were identified as potent anti-inflammatory mediators in a mouse model of rheumatoid arthritis and are potentially the active ... Read more...


GPI glycan remodeling by PGAP5 regulates transport of GPI-anchored proteins from the ER to the Golgi.

14 Oct 2009 Many eukaryotic proteins are attached to the cell surface via glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) anchors. How GPI-anchored proteins (GPI-APs) are trafficked from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) to the cell surface is poorly understood, but the GPI ... Read more...


Fluorescent glycan derivatives: their use for natural glycan microarrays.

16 Sep 2009 Glycan microarrays have become powerful tools in the investigation of biological systems because they enable fast, quantitative, and simultaneous analysis of glycan-protein interactions with small quantities of samples. One hurdle in the ... Read more...
