We utilized an informatics-based approach to develop a transcriptional signature of β-cell GA stress using existing RNA sequencing and microarray datasets generated using human islets from donors with diabetes and islets where type 1(T1D) and type 2 diabetes (T2D) had been modeled ex vivo. To narrow our results to GA-specific genes, we applied a filter set of 1,030 genes accepted as GA associated.

In particular, POMT2 (protein O-mannosyltransferase-2) mutations have been identified in congenital muscular dystrophy patients with a wide range of clinical involvement, ranging from the severe muscle-eye-brain disease and Walker–Warburg syndrome to limb girdle muscular dystrophy without structural brain or ocular involvement. Cardiovascular disease is thought to be uncommon in congenital muscular dystrophy, with rare reports of cardiac involvement. We describe three brothers aged 21, 19, and 17 years with an apparently homozygous POMT2 mutation who all presented with congenital muscular dystrophy, intellectual disabilities, and distinct cardiac abnormalities. All three brothers were homozygous for a p.Tyr666Cys missense mutation in exon 19 of the POMT2 gene. On screening echocardiograms, all siblings demonstrated significant dilatation of the aortic root and depressed left ventricular systolic function and/or left ventricular wall motion abnormalities. Our report is the first to document an association between POMT2 mutations and aortopathy with concomitant depressed left ventricular systolic function. On the basis of our findings, we suggest patients with POMT2 gene mutations be screened not only for myocardial dysfunction but also for aortopathy.

Glycosylation is the main element of the post- translational transformation of most human proteins. Since glycosylation processes are necessary for many different biological processes, patients present a diverse spectrum of phenotypes and severity of symptoms. The most frequently observed neurological symptoms in congenital disorders of glycosylation (CDG) are: epilepsy, intellectual disability, myopathies, neuropathies and stroke-like episodes. Epilepsy is seen in many CDG subtypes and particularly present in the case of mutations

Year: 2014 Number of pages: 257 Flavonoid glycosides are natural plant secondary metabolites exhibiting many physicochemical and biological properties. Glycosylation usually improves flavonoid solubility but access to flavonoid glycosides is limited by their low production levels in plants. In this thesis work, the focus was placed on the development of new glucodiversification routes of natural flavonoids by taking advantage of protein engineering. Two biochemically and structurally characterized recombinant transglucosylases, the amylosucrase from Neisseria polysaccharea and the α-(1→2) branching sucrase, a truncated form of the dextransucrase from L. Mesenteroides NRRL B-1299, were selected to attempt glucosylation of different flavonoids, synthesize new α-glucoside derivatives with original patterns of glucosylation and hopefully improved their water-solubility.

In recent years, a large number of linkage and association studies have been conducted producing an extremely large number of findings often not replicated or partially replicated. Further, results from linkage and association studies are not always easily comparable. Unfortunately, at present a comprehensive coverage of available evidence is still lacking. In the present paper, we summarized results obtained from both linkage and association studies in BP. Further, we indicated new potential interesting genes, located in genome ‘hot regions’ for BP and being expressed in the brain. We reviewed published studies on the subject till December 2007. We precisely localized regions where positive linkage has been found, by the NCBI Map viewer (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/mapview/); further, we identified genes located in interesting areas and expressed in the brain, by the Entrez gene, Unigene databases (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/) and Human Protein Reference Database (http://www.hprd.org); these genes could be of interest in future investigations. The review of association studies gave interesting results, as a number of genes seem to be definitively involved in BP, such as SLC6A4, TPH2, DRD4, SLC6A3, DAOA, DTNBP1, NRG1, DISC1 and BDNF.

  • Viruses Like Sugars: How to Assess Glycan Involvement in Viral Attachment
    microorganisms Review Viruses Like Sugars: How to Assess Glycan Involvement in Viral Attachment Gregory Mathez and Valeria Cagno * Institute of Microbiology, Lausanne University Hospital, University of Lausanne, 1011 Lausanne, Switzerland; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: The first step of viral infection requires interaction with the host cell. Before finding the specific receptor that triggers entry, the majority of viruses interact with the glycocalyx. Identifying the carbohydrates that are specifically recognized by different viruses is important both for assessing the cellular tropism and for identifying new antiviral targets. Advances in the tools available for studying glycan–protein interactions have made it possible to identify them more rapidly; however, it is important to recognize the limitations of these methods in order to draw relevant conclusions. Here, we review different techniques: genetic screening, glycan arrays, enzymatic and pharmacological approaches, and surface plasmon resonance. We then detail the glycan interactions of enterovirus D68 and severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), highlighting the aspects that need further clarification.
