  2. 1. Alterations of mucin O-glycosylation in response to intestinal infection. Importance of specific glycosyltransferases

    Author : Fredrik J. Olson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : mucins; altered O-glycosylation; Nippostrongylus brasiliensis infection; blood group A glycosyltransferase; Muc2; MUC1; GalNAc-T4; mass spectrometry;

    Abstract : Mucins are large glycoproteins constituting the major protein component of the mucus layer covering the epithelial surfaces. The mucins are characterised by a dense and heterogeneous O-glycosylation, important for their chemical and physiological properties. READ MORE

  4. 2. O-glycosylation of intestinal and respiratory mucins in health and disease
