Glycoproteins

Giuseppe Palmisano and his colleagues report in the Journal of Proteome Research that substances called glycoproteins - proteins coated with sugars - could be at the root of many wine allergies. ❋ Beppi Crosariol (2011)

Scientists thwart wine allergies Sulfites long have been blamed for wine allergies, but new research suggests molecules called glycoproteins might be a bigger culprit. ❋ Unknown (2010)

Agents identified as glycoproteins is the sex-promoting ingredients in the plant. ❋ Amp;34; (2010)

Envelope-bound animal viruses instruct the host's endoplasmic reticulum to make certain proteins, called glycoproteins, which then collect in clumps along the cell membrane. ❋ Unknown (2009)

The expression sites for variant surface glycoproteins of Trypanosoma brucei. ❋ Carl Zimmer (2009)

The small oligosaccharides in glycoproteins of mammalian tissues are formed with just a few monosaccharides and neuraminic acid is the predominate one. ❋ Unknown (2008)

Neuraminic acid is one of the major species of sugars found in humans and it is a component of practically all the glycoproteins. ❋ Unknown (2008)

If one pile of a bridge is damaged, this leads to a weakening of the whole bridge, which becomes a hazard to those crossing it; just as our cell membranes are a hazard to us when their glycoproteins are functionally damaged. ❋ Unknown (2008)

The cell has that lost its glycoproteins is now functionally crippled, because its glycoproteins are damaged. ❋ Unknown (2008)

Furthermore, neuraminidases also split off other sugars from glycoproteins, producing as much damage as cutting off neuraminic acid. ❋ Unknown (2008)

All the plasma proteins are glycoproteins, except for albumin. ❋ Unknown (2008)

The liver recognizes and destroys all glycoproteins that are missing their sialic acids, inactivating the glycoproteins. ❋ Unknown (2008)
