Protein posttranslational modifications (PTMs) refer to the breaking or generation of covalent
bonds on the backbones or amino acid side chains of proteins and expand the diversity of …

Cellular carbohydrates or glycans are critical mediators of biological function. Their
remarkably diverse structures and varied activities present exciting opportunities for …

Many eukaryotic receptors and enzymes rely on glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) anchors
for membrane localization and function. The transmembrane complex GPI-T recognizes …

We previously reported that glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) biosynthesis is upregulated
when endoplasmic reticulum–associated degradation (ERAD) is defective; however, the …

Pore-forming toxins (PFTs) are widely distributed in both Gram-negative and Gram-positive
bacteria. PFTs can act as virulence factors that bacteria utilise in dissemination and host …

Inflammation, a hallmark of cancer, has been associated with tumor progression, transition
into malignant phenotype and efficacy of the chemotherapeutic agents in cancer. Chronic …

Glycophosphatidylinositol (GPI) anchors are the predominant glycoconjugate in
Plasmodium parasites, enabling modified proteins to associate with biological membranes …

Glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored proteins (APs) are anchored at the outer leaflet
of plasma membranes (PMs) of all eukaryotic organisms studied so far by covalent linkage …

Blue mold, a postharvest disease of pome fruits, is caused by the filamentous fungus
Penicillium expansum. In addition to the economic losses caused by P. expansum, food …

Glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored proteins play crucial roles in various enzyme
activities, cell signaling and adhesion, and immune responses. While the molecular …
