Structures and mechanisms of glycosyltransferases
Abstract
Glycosyltransferases (GTs) catalyze the transfer of a sugar moiety from an activated donor sugar onto saccharide and nonsaccharide acceptors. A sequence-based classification spreads GTs in many families thus reflecting the variety of molecules that can be used as acceptors. In contrast, this enzyme family is characterized by a more conserved three-dimensional architecture. Until recently, only two different folds (GT-A and GT-B) have been identified for solved crystal structures. The recent report of a structure for a bacterial sialyltransferase allows the definition of a new fold family. Progress in the elucidation of the structures and mechanisms of GTs are discussed in this review. To accommodate the growing number of crystal structures, we created the 3D-Glycosyltransferase database to gather structural information concerning this class of enzymes.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
