Definition

glycosylated residue in which a carbohydrate or carbohydrate-derived group is attached to an oxygen atom through formation of an O-glycosidic bond

Semi-Formal Definition:

every instance of β€˜O-glycosylated residue’ is defined as exactly an instance of β€˜glycosylated residue’ that β€˜has proper continuant part at all times’ some β€˜O-glycan moiety’

Explanatory Notes

This class includes amino acid residues, most commonly serine and threonine, that have a covalently attached carbohydrate group through an O-glycosidic linkage. O-glycosylation may occur on hydroxyl-containing residues and should be distinguished from N-glycosylation, where the glycan is attached through a nitrogen atom, and from glycation, where sugar attachment arises through non-enzymatic reaction with amino groups.

Examples

  • O-glycosylated serine residue in a glycoprotein; O-glycosylated threonine residue in a mucin-like domain; Serine residue carrying an O-linked glycan in a recombinant therapeutic protein; Threonine residue carrying an O-linked glycan introduced through enzymatic glycosylation
