Uncovering bacterial pseudaminylation with pan-specific antibody tools

This study develops pan-specific monoclonal antibodies to detect pseudaminic acids in bacteria, enabling deeper glycoproteomic analysis and improved phagocytosis of multidrug-resistant strains.

The RBR E3 ubiquitin ligase HOIL-1 can ubiquitinate diverse non-proteinaceous substrates in vitro

This study demonstrates that HOIL-1 can ubiquitinate non-proteinaceous substrates like saccharides in vitro, identifies a key residue for this activity, and produces ubiquitinated saccharides as potential tools.

The molecular basis of immunosuppression by soluble CD52 is defined by interactions of N-linked and O-linked glycans with HMGB1 Box B

This paper characterizes the glycosylation of soluble CD52 and identifies its role in immune suppression through interactions with HMGB1 and SIGLEC-10.

POFUT2-mediated O-glycosylation of MIC2 is dispensable for Toxoplasma gondii tachyzoites

This study shows that O-glycosylation of MIC2 by TgPOFUT2 is not essential for Toxoplasma gondii tachyzoite infectivity and plaque formation.
