Bisecting Galactose as a Feature of N-Glycans of Wild-type and Mutant Caenorhabditis elegans.

Abstract excerpt

The N-glycosylation of the model nematode Caenorhabditis elegans has proven to be highly variable and rather complex; it is an example to contradict the existing impression that "simple" organisms possess also a rather simple glycomic capacity. In previous studies in a number of laboratories, N-glycans with up to four fucose residues have been detected. However, although the linkage of three fucose residues to...
