Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Protein glycosylation is one of the most common post-translational modifications. N-linked and O-linked glycosylation are the most abundant types, in which sugar is attached to the side chain of asparagine and serine/threonine residues, respectively. In addition, S-linked glycosylation on cysteine residues has been recently known. In this study, a bacterial S-linked glycosyltransferase involved in biosynthesis of a peptide antibiotic was focused on for the purpose of understanding the reaction mechanism of S-glycosylation by the glycosyltransferase, and the crystal structure of the enzyme was successfully determined.
