Glycosylation is one of the most prevalent posttranslational modifications that profoundly
affects the structure and functions of proteins in a wide variety of biological recognition …

SUMMARY Type IV pili (T4P) are multifunctional protein fibers produced on the surfaces of a
wide variety of bacteria and archaea. The major subunit of T4P is the type IV pilin, and …

Infections caused by bacterial species from the genus Campylobacter are one of the four
main causes of strong diarrheal enteritis worldwide. Campylobacteriosis, a typical food …

The members of the Aeromonas genus are ubiquitous, water‐borne bacteria. They have
been isolated from marine waters, rivers, lakes, swamps, sediments, chlorine water, water …

Sialic acids are structurally unique nine-carbon keto sugars occupying the interface between
the host and commensal or pathogenic microorganisms. An important function of host sialic …

The bacterial flagellum is a complex and dynamic nanomachine that propels bacteria
through liquids. It consists of a basal body, a hook, and a long filament. The flagellar filament …

Campylobacter jejuni has a general N-linked protein glycosylation system that can be
functionally transferred to Escherichia coli. In this study, we engineered E. coli cells in a way …

Asparagine-linked protein glycosylation is a prevalent protein modification reaction in
eukaryotic systems. This process involves the co-translational transfer of a pre-assembled …

In eukaryotes, glycosylated proteins are ubiquitous components of extracellular matrices
and cellular surfaces. Their oligosaccharide moieties are implicated in a wide range of cell …

Discovering virulence factors of pathogenic bacteria is a key in understanding pathogenesis
and for identification of targets for novel drugs and design of new vaccines. Comparative …
