The basic structure of the glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) moiety comprises ethanolamine phosphate, three mannose residues, glucosamine and phosphatidylinositol (PI). This basic structure and the mechanism by which proteins are anchored to membranes via the structure are conserved among organisms. After the identification of paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH), diseases derived from GPI anchor deficiencies were discovered. To comprehend these diseases fully, a comprehensive understanding of GPI anchor biosynthesis, encompassing the intricate remodeling of glycans and lipids, becomes imperative. We used mutant strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae in which the gene encoding the enzyme that catalyzes remodeling was knocked out and a model molecule for GPI-APs to observe the remodeling process. Herein, we introduce a method for analyzing and identifying glycan structures in GPI anchors using liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (LC-ESI MS).","PeriodicalId":55609,"journal":{"name":"Trends in Glycoscience and Glycotechnology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135859812","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

MUC2 mucin is a highly O-glycosylated glycoprotein, and its glycans are an essential post-translational modification for MUC2 function. In recent years, it has been discovered that specific structural units of the complex MUC2 glycans play distinct physiological functions. In particular, the sulfation of GlcNAc and Galactose in MUC2 glycans is essential for intestinal barrier function. Furthermore, gut bacteria utilize mucin sugar chains as a nutrient source by employing specific sulfatase enzymes, allowing them to colonize in the intestine. On the other hand, gut bacteria regulate host glycosylation through the induction of glycosyltransferase expression. In the light of recent studies on the structure and function of MUC2 glycans, mucins are not only functioning as a physical barrier but also as molecules that mediate complex interactions with gut microbiota. In this article, we discuss the function of MUC2 mucin and its glycosylation, with a particular focus on sulfated glycans.","PeriodicalId":55609,"journal":{"name":"Trends in Glycoscience and Glycotechnology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135859490","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The basic specificity of galectins for β-galactosides is conserved in their carbohydrate recognition domains (CRDs). Although galectins have been implicated in important biological functions, there is limited evidence that galectin-galactoside binding is directly linked to such functions. Extensive functional analysis of galectins in a large number of species is necessary to understand the broad range of evolutionarily conserved functions. Therefore, we focused on Xenopus galectins and identified and analyzed 12 species of Xenopus laevis galectins. The only non-mammalian vertebrate that has been comprehensively analyzed for galectins is the Xenopus laevis, which we use as a model for galectin research. In this review, we introduce the types of galectins and the functions of Xenopus galectins available to date.","PeriodicalId":55609,"journal":{"name":"Trends in Glycoscience and Glycotechnology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135859653","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
