Chemoenzymatic methods for GAG chain editing on proteoglycans

Abstract:

Proteoglycans (PGs) are ubiquitous on the cell surface and in the extracellular matrix of almost all mammalian tissues and comprise one of the most complex and multifunctional glycoprotein families. PGs carry one or more complex glycosaminoglycan (GAG) chains on their protein backbone, which are assembled through a multi-step biosynthetic process. These glycoconjugates regulate diverse functions in mammalian physiology but are typically intractable to precise molecular study due, in part, to ...
