Application

Application Comment Organism
molecular biology engineering of an O-fucosylation system in yeast provides a powerful tool for producing proteins with homogenous carbohydrate chains. Such proteins can be used for the analysis of substrate specificity and the production of antibodies that recognize O-glycosylated EGF domains Homo sapiens

Protein Variants

Protein Variants Comment Organism
additional information an artificial O-glycosylation pathway to produce an O-fucosylated epidermal growth factor (EGF) domain in Saccharomyces cerevisiae is generated. The in vivo O-fucosylation system is constructed via expression of genes that encode protein O-fut1 and the EGF domain, along with genes whose protein products convert cytoplasmic GDP-mannose to GDP-fucose Homo sapiens
