A strategy for chromatographic and structural analysis of monosaccharide species from glycoproteins.

1996

A general strategy for the chromatographic and structural analysis of the monosaccharide species fucose (Fuc), N-acetylgalactosamine (GalNAc), N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc), galactose (Gal), glucose (Glc), mannose (Man), N-acetylneuraminic acid (NANA) present in glycoproteins is described. Qualitative and quantitative aspects for the separation of these glycoprotein monosaccharides (monosaccharide species) using ligand-exchange chromatography (LEC) and high pH anion-exchange chromatography (HPAEC) in combination with pulsed-amperometric detection (PAD), refractive index (RI) and ultraviolet (UV) monitoring are discussed in detail. The conditions for the acidic hydrolysis of glycoproteins and…

Enzymatic glycosylation of o-glycopeptides

1992

Abstract O-Glycosylation of serine derivatives carried out with N-urethane protected glucosamine yields O-glycopeptides which are regio- and stereoselectively galactosylated with the aid of β-1,4-galactosyltransferase (EC 2.4.1.22).

The quality of Valle del Belice sheep’s milk and cheese produced in the hot summer season in Sicily

2013

In response to the growing consumer demand for fresh cheese in summer, this investigation was aimed to evaluate the chemical and microbiological characteristics of sheep’s milk and cheese produced in Sicily in the hot summer months. A total of 810 bulk milk samples collected from 17 farms rearing ewes of the Valle del Belice breed were analysed for chemical composition, somatic cell count, total bacterial count and clotting parameters. Samples (n = 18) of Protected Designation of Origin Vastedda della valle del Belice cheese produced in six dairies were collected in summer, autumn and spring and analysed for chemical composition, microbiological profile and fatty acid (FA) composition.

Transition metal–saccharide chemistry: synthesis, characterization and solution stability studies of cis-dioxomolybdenum saccharide complexes

1998

Six cis-dioxomolybdenum(VI) complexes of simple monosaccharides (D-glucose, D-fructose, D-galactose, D-mannose, D-ribose and D-xylose) have been synthesized and characterized by a variety of analytical and spectral methods. Both the solution and solid-state studies have supported the presence of dimeric structures, formed through the cis-MoO2 moieties and the bridging saccharide units. Solution stability of these complexes as a function of time has also been addressed.

Characterization of a proteinaceous extracellular coat synthesized by the ?slime? variant of Neurospora crassa

1989

Cells of the “slime” strain of Neurospora crassa synthesize a coherent extracellular material which remains attached to the cell surface, but is released into the liquid medium by shaking. The material was purified and studied by different criteria. By electron microscopy it appears as long wavy sheets which strongly bind concanavalin A, but not wheat germ agglutinin, and maintain their integrity in the absence of structural polysaccharides. Analysis of the purified material revealed that it was free of contaminating membranes; it contained more than 70% protein, 1% neutral sugars (glucose, mannose, fucose and galactose), less than 2% lipids and ca. 4% not-characterized hexosaminelike compo…

Adult Lactose Tolerance Is Not an Advantageous Evolutionary Trait

2004

To the Editor. I read with great interest the recent article from Fomon1 in which he refers to the well-known hypothesis that views the variable frequencies of lactase persistence in different human populations and, consequently, the possibility for some adults to feed on milk (lactose tolerance) as an advantageous evolutionary trait that has been genetically determined and brought about through centuries of natural selection. This notion stands as a common statement in current medical literature, and most authors have accepted its validity since the 1970s.2,3 Because adult mammals are lactose-intolerant, this hypothesis is, moreover, based on the low percentage of lactose malabsorption and…
