Glycoproteins are an important class of glycoconjugates. The various biological functions of glycans are also exerted mainly through their participation in various important biological processes with the protein backbones. The composition of oligosaccharide structures in glycoproteins produces various glycosylated structures depending on their cell type, organization, and species. Glycosylation also affects glycoprotein functions, including but not limited to immunogenicity, tissue targeting, and pharmacokinetics. CD BioGlyco dissects intermolecular interactions and the biological functions of glycoproteins through Cell-based Arrays and provides a wide range of biological analysis services to our clients.
At CD BioGlyco, we provide the specific binding assay service and substrate tolerance assay service for cell-based glycoprotein arrays. Moreover, we provide array screening services in identifying high-affinity ligands. Our analysts characterize the protein-binding properties to further analyze the interaction relationship between cell-based glycoprotein arrays and viruses.

Paper Title: Display of the human mucinome with defined O-glycans by gene engineered cells
Technology: Genetic engineering, Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE), Mass spectrometry, Flow cytometry
Journal: Nature Communications
Published: 2021
IF: 16.6
Results: In this study, cell-based mucin displays were constructed from HEK293 isogenic cells and bound to three adhesins (HsaBR, GSPBR, and NCT10712BR), respectively. All three adhesins were found to bind tightly to different O-glycan structures and different subpopulations of mucin tandem repeats (TRs). Analysis of the binding properties of the adhesion proteins identified specific O-glycan structures and screened for mucin TR sequences. The high-intensity mucins TRs display information indicates the mucin display platform for the discovery and dissection of interactions with O-glycans on mucins.
