Parallel identification of O-GlcNAc-modified proteins from cell lysates

J Am Chem Soc. 2004 Sep 1;126(34):10500-1. doi: 10.1021/ja047872b.

Abstract

We report a new strategy for the parallel identification of O-GlcNAc-glycosylated proteins from cell lysates. The approach permits specific proteins of interest to be rapidly interrogated for the modification in any tissue or cell type and can be extended to peptides to facilitate the mapping of glycosylation sites. As an illustration of the approach, we identified four new O-GlcNAc-glycosylated proteins of low cellular abundance (c-Fos, c-Jun, ATF-1, and CBP) and two short regions of glycosylation in the enzyme O-GlcNAc transferase (OGT). The ability to target specific proteins across various tissue or cell types complements emerging proteomic technologies and should advance our understanding of this important posttranslational modification.
