TLDR
The synthesis of the complex-type oligosaccharide unit of the vesicular stomatitis virus G protein is initiated by the en bloc transfer of a high molecular weight oligosACcharide from a lipid carrier to the nascent polypeptide.

Sequential assembly and polymerization of the polyprenol-linked pentasaccharide repeating unit of the xanthan polysaccharide in Xanthomonas campestris.

TL;DR: In this study, the stepwise assembly of the repeating pentasaccharide unit of xanthan is described and results from two-stage reactions showed that essentially pentasACcharide-P-P -polyprenol is polymerized.

Isolation and characterization of mosquito cell membrane glycoproteins.

TL;DR: Plasma membranes have been purified from an established cell line, Mos 20A of Aedes aegypti, and analysed for glycoprotein and polypeptide constituents by isoelectric focusing and sodium dodecyl sulphate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, indicating the presence of N-glycans and O-glycosidically linked N-acetylgalactosamine residues.

N-Glycosylation of Yeast Proteins Characterization of the Solubilized Oligosaccharyl Transferase

TL;DR: The enzyme transferring the oligosaccharide from DolPP-(GlcNAc)2(Glc)3 to asparagine residues of glycoproteins has been solubilized from yeast membranes by extraction with detergents and a clear difference in Km values for the hexapeptide was observed with difference dolichol-linked sugar derivatives.

Structure and Assembly of Alphaviruses

TL;DR: The alphaviruses are enveloped animal viruses that belong to the family of Toga viruses and their molecular biology is almost entirely based on studies with two members of this virus group, the Semliki Forest Virus and the Sindbis virus.

Relationship of the terminal sequences to the length of poly-N-acetyllactosamine chains in asparagine-linked oligosaccharides from the mouse lymphoma cell line BW5147. Immobilized tomato lectin interacts with high affinity with glycopeptides containing long poly-N-acetyllactosamine chains.

TL;DR: There is a relationship in these cells between poly-N-acetyllactosamine chain length and the degree and type of sialylation of these chains, and it is found that immobilized tomato lectin interacts with high affinity with glycopeptides containing three or more linear units of the repeating disaccharide and thereby allows for a separation of glycopesptides on the basis of the length of the chain.

Detection of sugars on paper chromatograms.

W E Trevelyan, +2 more
- 09 Sep 1950 - 
TL;DR: Modifications are introduced, based on a test given by Feigl for reducing sugars, which eliminate the heating step, and in which the reagents are applied in organic solvents, thus removing the danger of migration of the sugar spots.

The role of polyprenol-linked sugars in glycoprotein synthesis.

TL;DR: The chiral stationary phase for lipid-Linked Monosaccharides showed good chiral recognition ability towards various lipids, and this property has been generalized to other lipids as well.

Structural studies of two ovalbumin glycopeptides in relation to the endo-beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase specificity.

TL;DR: The presence of the unsubstituted alpha-mannosyl residue linked at the C-3 position of the terminal mannose of Manbeta1 leads to 4 GlcNAcAsn core must be essential for the action of the enzyme.
