摘要
Proteophosphoglycans are an expanding family of highly glycosylated Leishmania proteins with many unusual and some unique structural features. The novel protein-glycan linkage in proteophosphoglycans - phosphoglycosylation of Ser by lipophosphoglycan-like structures - emerges as a major form of protein glycosylation in Leishmania. Here, Thomas Ilg reviews the chemical structure, the ultra-structure, the genes and the potential functions of different members of this novel family of parasite glycoproteins.
