Abstract

Protein O-fucosyltransferase 1 (POFUT1) fucosylates the epidermal growth factor (EGF)-like domains found in cell-surface and secreted glycoproteins including Notch and its ligands. Although Notch fucosylation is critical for development, and POFUT1 deficiency leads to human disease, how this enzyme binds and catalyzes the fucosylation of its diverse EGF-like domain substrates has not been determined. Reported here is the X-ray crystal structure of mouse POFUT1 in complex with several EGF-like domains, including EGF12 and EGF26 of Notch. Overall shape complementarity, interactions with invariant atoms of the fucosylation motif and flexible segments on POFUT1 all define its EGF-like-domain binding properties. Using large-scale structural and sequence analysis, we also show that POFUT1 binds EGF-like domains of the hEGF type and that the highly correlated presence of POFUT1 and fucosylatable hEGFs has accompanied animal evolution.

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.
