S-Layer Glycoproteins and Flagellins: Reporters of Archaeal Posttranslational Modifications
Many archaeal proteins undergo posttranslational modifications. S-layer proteins and flagellins have been used successfully to study a variety of these modifications, including N-linked glycosylation, signal peptide removal and lipid modification. Use of these well-characterized reporter proteins in the genetically tractable model organisms, Haloferax volcanii, Methanococcus voltae and Methanoc...
متن کاملHalobacterial flagellins are sulfated glycoproteins.
The cell-surface glycoprotein of Halobacteria contains oligosaccharides of the type Glc4----1GlcA4----1GlcA4----1GlcA (where GlcA indicates glucuronic acid) with a sulfate group attached to each of the GlcA residues. We report here that in addition to this cell-surface glycoprotein, the halobacterial flagellar proteins (recently described by Alam, M., and Oesterhelt, D. (1984) J. Mol. Biol. 176...
متن کاملArchaeal S-layer glycoproteins: post-translational modification in the face of extremes
Corresponding to the sole or basic component of the surface (S)-layer surrounding the archaeal cell in most known cases, S-layer glycoproteins are in direct contact with the harsh environments that characterize niches where Archaea can thrive. Accordingly, early work examining archaeal S-layer glycoproteins focused on identifying those properties that allow members of this group of proteins to ...

متن کاملPosttranslational modifications of tissue factor.
Tissue factor (TF), a membrane protein, is an initiator of blood coagulation in vivo. In this review we discuss how posttranslational modifications affect activity and other properties of TF. Glycosylation of the extracellular domain and the composition of carbohydrates at three glycosylation sites have an influence on TF activity in the extrinsic FXase by increasing the rate of FX proteolysis....
