A concise review of chemical biology methods applied towards the study of proteoglycans.
A chemical biology-based strategy to build proteoglycans to study their function and interactions in live cells.
36. Chemical editing of proteoglycan architecture.
T O'Leary,* M Critcher,* TN Stephenson, X Yang, A Hassan, NM Bartfield, R Hawkins, ML Huang
We envisioned using APEX2 proximity tagging in a 'baitless' manner to biotinylate and identify proteins on cell surfaces. Note: We find that anchoring APEX2 on cell surfaces (via cell surface engineering) is important to get tagging to work. We also find that N-linked glycosylation occludes some protein residues for radical-mediated tagging (see SI). A fun collaboration with Naomi Kamasawa to image APEX2-labelled cell surfaces using TEM (right).
34. Seeing the forest through the trees: Characterizing the glycoproteome.
M Critcher, AA Hassan, ML Huang*
Our editorial piece illustrating the need to study protein glycoconjugates as replete entities and the latest advancements to study their structures, interactions, and functions.
Mia: Among the greatest joys of my career thus far has been to serve as a guest editor alongside Editor-in-Chief Prof. Laura Kiessling, for this special issue.
