Structural basis of the molecular ruler mechanism of a bacterial glycosyltransferase
The glycosyltransferase PglH transfers three terminal N-acetylgalactosamine (GalNAc) residues to a carrier, which is a prerequisite for bacterial protein N-glycosylation. Here authors present the crystal structures of PglH in three distinct states and show that a ‘ruler helix’ facilitates membrane a...

| Sumario: | The glycosyltransferase PglH transfers three terminal N-acetylgalactosamine (GalNAc) residues to a carrier, which is a prerequisite for bacterial protein N-glycosylation. Here authors present the crystal structures of PglH in three distinct states and show that a ‘ruler helix’ facilitates membrane attachment and glycan counting. |
