Finding the missing link between the unfolded protein response and O-GlcNAcylation in the heart - PubMed (original) (raw)

Christopher C Glembotski. Circ Res. 2014.

Abstract

The ER stress-inducible transcription factor, x-box binding protein 1 (XBP1), which enhances protein glycosylation in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), was shown to also enhance protein glycosylation outside the ER, via a process called O-GlcNAcylation, which protected the heart from ischemia/reperfusion damage.

(A) XBP1 is the Missing Link between the UPR and O-GlcNAcylation. The contributions made by Wang et al are shown in blue. (B)Proteins are glycosylated in different cell compartments. (C) A key substrate for O-GlcNAcylation, which is used by the enzyme OGT (O-GlcNAc transferase), is UDP-GlcNAc (uridine diphosphate N-acetyl glucosamine).(D) UDP-GlcNAc is generated by the hexose biosynthetic pathway (HBP). O-GlcNAc groups can be removed from proteins by OGA (O-GlcNAcase). The contributions made by Wang et al are shown in blue.
