Glycoproteomics: High-Throughput Sequencing of Oligosaccharide Modifications to Proteins

  • Chapter
Book cover Proteome Research: Mass Spectrometry

Abstract

Genomics establishes the relationship between biological processes and gene activity. Proteomics (James 1997), which relates biological activity to the proteins expressed by genes, is fundamental to our understanding of biology. It is the proteins, rather than the genes that encode them, which engage in biological events (Wilkins et al. 1995). Furthermore, most proteins contain post-translational modifications which are the products of enzyme reactions. Since the enzymes are coded for by different genes, the complete structure of an individual protein cannot be determined by reference to either a single gene or the protein sequence alone. One of the most common ways that a protein is modified is by the process of glycosylation, in which oligosaccharides are attached to specific sites encoded in the primary sequence of the protein (Dwek 1996).
