Technique(s) used for Glycosylation Detection | Intact mass analysis with QTOF2-MS (hybrid quadrupole time of flight mass spectrometry) |
Technique(s) used for Glycosylated Residue(s) Detection | Electron transfer dissociation (ETD) MS |
Protein Glycosylation- Implication | Glycosylation of the flagellin protein is required for proper assembly and consequent motility. |
Glycan Information |
Glycan Annotation | (398-Da glycan) O-linked HexNAc residue, to which a methylated aspartic acid is linked via a phosphate bond. Flagellins from a number of C. difficile isolates from more recent outbreaks are modified in O linkage with a heterogeneous glycan containing up to five monosaccharide residues with masses of 204 (HexNAc), 146 (deoxyhexose), 160 (methylated deoxyhexose), and 192 (heptose). |
Technique(s) used for Glycan Identification | MS/MS (tandem mass spectrometry), nESI-feCID-MS/MS (nano-electrospray ionization?front-end collision-induced dissociation MS/MS) analyses |
Protein Glycosylation linked (PGL) gene(s) |
OST ProGT ID | ProGT32 (GT) |
