Cards

Term
Glycosylation
Definition
- Process by which sugars are added to protein (or lipid)
- two kinds N versus O linked
Term
Carbohydrate
Definition
Naturally occuring compounds of the chemical formula (C)n (H2O)n
Term
Monosacccharide
Definition
Simple 5 or 6 ring sugar (gluc, galac, mann)
Term
Oligosaccharide
Definition
Sugar polymer (3-15 residues)
Term
Polysaccharide
Definition
Sugar Polymer (10-100 residues)
Term
Glycosyltransferase
Definition
- Enzyme that adds sugar (transfer from sugar nuceotide to protein/lipid)
- Specific for Donor sugar, acceptor, AND type of linkage
Term
Glycosidase
Definition
Removes sugars
Term
Lectin
Definition
Carb-binding protein
Term
Why glycosylate
Definition
- Shock absorbers (proteoglycans)
- Proper folding (Glc in ER)
- Protect from degradation (fibronectin, erythropoietin, platelets)
- Cell-cell recognition (CAMs on WBC)
- Targetting (mannose 6-phosphate on lysosomal enzymes)
Term
Gylcosylation occurs...
Definition
topologically outside the cell
Term
O-linked glycosylation
Definition
- Sugar added one at a time
- Post-translational addition
- Added to OH group of protein (ser/thr/hydroxylysine)
Term
Gal T'ase
Definition
- O-linked glycosylation
- Located in trans golgi
Term
NANA T'ase
Definition
-Sialic Acid t'ase
- TGN
Term
Proteoglycans
Definition
- Large aggregates of carbs and proteins
- Found in ECM and structural tissues like cartilage; gives viscosity and elasticity
- High carb/protein ratio
- Consists of core protein with many O-linked (-) GAG chains
Term
GAGs
Definition
- Glycosaminoglycans (GAGs)
- Repeating disaccharide containing an acid sugar (Glucuronic or iduronic acid) and an amino sugar (GlcNAc or GalNAc)
- Often sulfated
- Negative charge attacks Na+ and H2O
- Charge stretches protein out and associates lots of Na and H2O providing cushioning
Term
A blood group
Definition
- RBC have A antigen
- Has GalNAc attached to galactose
Term
B blood group
Definition
- RBC have B antigen on surface
- Has Gal attached to O-antigen
Term
A
Definition
- Accepts A and O
- Anti-B serum
Term
B
Definition
- Abodies to A
- Receive B and O
Term
AB
Definition
- No antibodies
- Receieve any
- Universal acceptor
Term
O
Definition
- Antibodies to A and B
- Can only receive O
- Universal donor
Term
Glycosylation and Immune defense
Definition
- Cells in cleft secrete mucins with terminal a-GlcNAc
- Prevent H. plyori growth by inhib cell wall synth
Term
H. Pylori
Definition
- Colonize gut surface
- Feed on Le^b antigen secreted by surface fastric mucosal cells
Term
H. Pylori Adaptive mechanism
Definition
- Encodes cholesterol-a-glucosyltransferase
- Hides necessary cholesterol from immune detection of macrophages and T cells
Term
Accumulation of __________ faciliatates _________
Definition
cholesterol in bacterial membrane
and
uptake and killing of bacteria by macrophage and T cells
Term
N-linked Addition of Oligosaccharides
Definition
- Begins in rough ER by transfer en bloc of 14 residue complex from lipid intermediate
- Occurs co-translationally
- Consensus sequence Asn-X-Ser/Thr
Term
Consensus sequence
Definition
- N-linked Oligo sach addition
- Asn-X-Ser/Thr
Term
14 residue complex
Definition
- 2 GlcNAc, 9 Mannose, 3 Glucose
Term
Oligosacchryl Transferase
Definition
Transfers oligo to PP chain
Term
N-linked oligo processing
Definition
- Processing enzymes are compartmentalized in golgi cisternae
- Flow through the golgi is unidirectional (if some cleavage doesnt occur and protein advances, then that is not fixed)
- Processing occurs one residue at a time from exposed end
Term
Glycosidases
Definition
- Remove sugars
Term
Glycosyltransferases
Definition
- Add sugars
Term
ER processing of Oligo
Definition
- Remove 1 glucose at a time (first 2 easy, last 1 serves signaling role)
- Remove Mannose
- Send to cis golgi
Term
Glucose trimming
Definition
- Calnexin recognizes unfolded protein with 1 glocuse on N linked oligo
- Proper folding allows removal of final glucose and exit from ER
- Improper folding has glucose readed and reporcessed by calnexin
Term
CGN
Definition
- Cis Golgi Network
- Phosphorylation of ologos on lysosomal proteins
Term
Cis Cist
Definition
- Member of Golgi stack
- removal of Man
Term
Medial Cist
Definition
- Member of golgi stack
- Removal of Man
- add GlcNAc
Term
Trans cist
Definition
- Golgi stack
- Add gal
Term
TGN
Definition
- Trans golgi network
- Sulfation of tyrosine and carbs
Term
Recognition Marker on Lysosomal Enzyme
Definition
- Mannose 6-phosphate
- N-linked
- Two step reaction: (i) GlcNAc phospho-transferase adds GlcNAc-P to terminal residue in cis-goldie and (ii) GlacNac phosphodiesterase removes GlcNac later
- UDP-GlcNAc
Term
How does GlcNacphophotransferase recognize lysosomal enzymes?
Definition
- signal patch based on 3d structure
Term
Lysosomal storage disease
Definition
- Lysosomal Enzymes arent tagged in golgi so dont make it there
Term
Platelets
Definition
- Platelets are glycosolated with NANA and Galactose
