Zusammenfassung
The structural and functional integrity of many proteins is highly dependent upon enzyme catalyzed covalent modification reactions. The timing of these transformations may be co-translational, occurring as a protein is being biosynthesized or post-translational, acting on folded protein substrates. Our research focuses on understanding the conformational basis of specificity and selectivity in the process of co-translational protein glycosylation. This objective presents a significant challenge because the opportunities for competing transformations on the densely functionalized protein substrate in this reaction are innumerable. Since enzyme-catalyzed glycosylation is an essential eukaryotic process, an understanding of the origin of specificity is of utmost importance both to fundamental biochemistry and to a consideration of the mechanisms of homeostatic control.
