The new study, published in the journal Nature Structural & Molecular Biology, is the first to show that bacteria living in the gut can influence how proteins in the brain are modified by ...

By employing a novel technique to examine how carbohydrates modify proteins, scientists have found that gut bacteria can ...

Glycosylation is the reaction catalysed by glycosyltransferases, which adds carbohydrates site-specifically to another molecule, generally proteins and lipids. Glycosylation comes in five forms ...

Changes in glycosylation are often associated with disease progression, but the genetic and metabolic basis of these events is rarely understood in detail at a molecular level. We describe a ...

The microbes in the human gastrointestinal tract can have a significant influence on human health and disease, and this gut microbiome has been associated | Cell And Molecular Biology ...
