A brief excursion through the glycobiology of unicellular eukaryotes
Unicellular eukaryotes have evolved diverse adaptations to many earthly environments, including as pathogens of human and plant hosts. Their glycosylation is often similarly varied, and the extant record reflects a combination of evolutionary history and contributions to fitness that are only beginning to be explored in detail. I will introduce select aspects of the glycomics, glycogenomics and glycobiology of the soil-borne amoebozoan Dictyostelium discoideum, the apicomplexan human pathogen Toxoplasma gondii, and the agent for Chagas disease Trypanosoma cruzi.

Advancing Glycomics and Glycoproteomics via MultiplexedChemical Tagging Technology
Glycosylation is one of the most important and most complex protein post-translational modifications. Alterations in glycomic profiles have been linked to various diseases, including cancer, neurodegenerative disorders, and cardiovascular problems. Thus, new methods are needed for quantitative analysis of glycans to facilitate the elucidation of their diverse functional roles in human diseases.Advances in mass spectrometry (MS)-based glycoproteomics and glycomics are increasingly enabling qualitative and quantitative approaches for site-specific structural analysis of protein glycosylation. In this presentation, Iwill describe our recent efforts in developing both MS1 and MS2-based relative quantification strategies for glycomic and glycoproteomicanalysis ofbiological samples. Several cost-effective and novel isobariclabeling reagents will be highlighted for their utility in quantitativeglycanand glycopeptideanalyses ofhuman serum and cerebrospinal fluid samples.
