A concise review of chemical biology methods applied towards the study of proteoglycans.
A chemical biology-based strategy to build proteoglycans to study their function and interactions in live cells.
36. Chemical editing of proteoglycan architecture.
T O'Leary,* M Critcher,* TN Stephenson, X Yang, A Hassan, NM Bartfield, R Hawkins, ML Huang
We envisioned using APEX2 proximity tagging in a 'baitless' manner to biotinylate and identify proteins on cell surfaces. Note: We find that anchoring APEX2 on cell surfaces (via cell surface engineering) is important to get tagging to work. We also find that N-linked glycosylation occludes some protein residues for radical-mediated tagging (see SI). A fun collaboration with Naomi Kamasawa to image APEX2-labelled cell surfaces using TEM (right).
