glycoengineering

Analyze and engineer protein glycosylation. Scan sequences for N-glycosylation sequons (N-X-S/T), predict O-glycosylation hotspots, and access curated glycoengineering tools (NetOGlyc, GlycoShield, GlycoWorkbench). For glycoprotein engineering, therapeutic antibody optimization, and vaccine design.

# Glycoengineering

## Overview

Glycosylation is the most common and complex post-translational modification (PTM) of proteins, affecting over 50% of all human proteins. Glycans regulate protein folding, stability, immune recognition, receptor interactions, and pharmacokinetics of therapeutic proteins. Glycoengineering involves rational modification of glycosylation patterns for improved therapeutic efficacy, stability, or immune evasion.

**Two major glycosylation types:**
- **N-glycosylation**: Attached to asparagine (N) in the sequon N-X-[S/T] where X ≠ Proline; occurs in the ER/Golgi
- **O-glycosylation**: Attached to serine (S) or threonine (T); no strict consensus motif; primarily GalNAc initiation
