I am very happy to share that on August 1, I will be joining the amazing Complex Carbohydrate Research Center (CCRC) as assistant professor. I am looking forward to joining this wonderful glycocommunity at The University of Georgia

Happy to share our latest review on N-glycosylation. #Glycotime

Structural and mechanistic studies of the N-glycosylation machinery: From lipid-linked oligosaccharide biosynthesis to glycan transfer

Abstract. N-linked protein glycosylation is a post-translational modification that exists in all domains of life. It involves two consecutive steps: (1) biosynt

@Elisa @SfG Thanks Elisa :)

I am extremely happy to share my latest article in @lab_locher, "Molecular basis for glycan recognition and reaction priming of eukaryotic oligosaccharyltransferase” in @NatureComms
Thanks to all co-authors for this fantastic work!!

Molecular basis for glycan recognition and reaction priming of eukaryotic oligosaccharyltransferase - Nature Communications

Oligosaccharyltransferase (OST), the central enzyme in N-glycosylation, modifies acceptor proteins by attaching a complex glycan. Cryo-EM structures of OST in distinct states, reveal the molecular basis of substrate recognition and catalysis.
