Glycobiology: Progress, problems, and perspectives

Abstract: This review highlights different aspects of glycobiology with analysis of recent progress in the study of biosynthesis, degradation, and biological role of glycoconjugates and of hereditary diseases related to the metabolism of these compounds. In addition, the review presents some analysis of the papers of other authors who have contributed to this special issue.

“…Besides the increase in total activity of some lysosomal enzymes in glycosidoses, the concentration of protein activators/ chaperones that are components of the intralysosomal matrix is significantly increased. Based on these data, we suppose that the hyperactivation of the lysosomal hydrolytic system could be a protective reaction of the cell to product accumulation [17]. The elucidation of mechanisms regulating these processes possibly through certain signaling messengers of lysosomes-cytoplasmnucleus-cell membranes may lead to discovery of other important pathways of intracellular communication.…”

“…At the same time, it affects the function of proteins, such as glycosylation plays an important role in protein folding, transport and location [41,42]. According to the connection modes, it can be divided into four types: N-glycosylation, O-glycosylation, C-glycosylation and glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) anchored connection [43,44]. FLT3 has been reported to be N-glycosylated in the endoplasmic reticulum [45][46][47], which may be due to the difficulty in O-glycosylation research.…”

“…Glycosylation of a protein imposes comprehensive effects on its folding, localization, trafficking, solubility, antigenicity and many other aspects, thus endows the modified protein with new functions [2]. Depending on the linkage between the amino acid and glycans, protein glycosylation are divided into four categories, namely N- linked glycosylation ( N -glycosylation), O-linked glycosylation, C-mannosylation and glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) anchor attachments [2,3]. An analysis of the 75,000 glycosylated protein entries in SWISS-PROT estimated that N- glycosylated proteins accounted for over two thirds with a frequency of 3.1 sites per protein, representing the richest glycosylation type in eukaryotes [4].…”

“…Although the cellular machinery used to N- glycosylate is well conserved, the capacity to form hybrid or complex N- glycans does vary between species and between cell types [6]. N -glycosylation is involved in protein folding, ER-associated degradation and protein sorting, processes which underpin growth, development, morphogenesis and stress signaling [3,79]. In human, the aberrant status and structure of N- glycan in cell surface receptors have been associated with the cancer cell progression and metastasis [10].…”
