An evolving hierarchical family classification for glycosyltransferases. (2003, background): “These molecules govern a diverse range of cellular functions, including energy storage, cellwall structure, cell–cell interactions and signalling, host–pathogen interactions, and protein glycosylation.(1) – 3 Because these functions, especially those in which carbohydrate moieties act as a cellular ”
Identification and Quantification of Protein Glycosylation (2012, background): “In the past few decades, growing attention has been directed to protein glycosylation in the biomedical field, since aberrant glycosylations have been associated with various congenital [2], metabolic, neurodegenerative [3], and immune diseases [4] and with cancer [5].”
