N-glycosylation signature and its relevance in cardiovascular immunometabolism

Abstract excerpt

Glycosylation is a post-translational modification in which complex, branched carbohydrates (glycans) are covalently attached to proteins or lipids. Asparagine-link protein ( N -) glycosylation is among the most common types of glycosylation. This process is essential for many biological and cellular functions, and impaired N -glycosylation has been widely implicated in inflammation and cardiovascular diseases....
