Current opinion in structural biology - 1 Oct 2011
Stalnaker Stephanie H, Stuart Ryan, Wells Lance
Abstract excerpt
Post-translational modification of polypeptides with glycans increases the diversity of the structures of proteins and imparts increased functional diversity. Here, we review the current literature on a relatively new O-glycosylation pathway, the mammalian O-mannosylation pathway. The importance of O-mannosylation is illustrated by the fact that O-mannose glycan structures play roles in a variety of processes...
