Abstract
Protein O-GlcNAcylation refers to the covalent binding of a single N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) to the serine or threonine residue. This modification primarily occurs on proteins in the nucleus and the cytosol, and plays critical roles in many cellular events, including regulation of gene expression and signal transduction. Aberrant protein O-GlcNAcylation is directly related to human diseases such as cancers, diabetes and neurodegenerative diseases. In the past decades, considerable progress has been made for global and site-specific analysis of O-GlcNAcylation in complex biological samples using mass spectrometry (MS)-based proteomics. In this review, we summarized previous efforts on comprehensive investigation of protein O-GlcNAcylation by MS. Specifically, the review is focused on methods for enriching and site-specifically mapping O-GlcNAcylated peptides, and applications for quantifying protein O-GlcNAcylation in different biological systems. As O-GlcNAcylation is an important protein modification for cell survival, effective methods are essential for advancing our understanding of glycoprotein functions and cellular events.Keywords
