Guidelines for the use and interpretation of assays for monitoring autophagy

Daniel J. Klionsky, +1287 more
- 01 Apr 2012 - 
TL;DR: These guidelines are presented for the selection and interpretation of methods for use by investigators who aim to examine macroautophagy and related processes, as well as for reviewers who need to provide realistic and reasonable critiques of papers that are focused on these processes.

Mechanisms Underlying Aberrant Glycosylation of MUC1 Mucin in Breast Cancer Cells

TL;DR: The mechanism for the exposure of peptide epitopes in BT20 and T47D cells is proposed to be the loss of core-2 branching leading to shorter, sialylated O-glycan chains.
Journal ArticleDOI

The relative activities of the C2GnT1 and ST3Gal-I glycosyltransferases determine O-glycan structure and expression of a tumor-associated epitope on MUC1.

TL;DR: Even when C2GnT1 is expressed, the O-glycans added to MUC1 become core 1-dominated structures, provided expression of ST3Gal-I is increased as it is in breast cancer, which indicates a switch to core 2 structures.
Journal ArticleDOI

An α2,3 sialyltransferase (ST3Gal I) is elevated in primary breast carcinomas

TL;DR: In situ hybridization of primary breast tissue showed that a sialyltransferase (ST3Gal I), responsible for adding sialic acid to core 1 thereby terminating chain extension, is elevated in primary breast carcinomas when compared to normal or benign tissue.
