O-GlcNAc Transferase in complex with covalent inhibitorO-GlcNAc Transferase in complex with covalent inhibitor
Structural highlights
Publication Abstract from PubMedO-GlcNAc transferase (OGT) glycosylates numerous proteins and is implicated in many diseases. To date, most OGT inhibitors lack either sufficient potency or characterized specificity in cells. We report the first targeted covalent inhibitor that predominantly reacts with OGT but does not affect other functionally similar enzymes. This study provides a new strategy to interrogate cellular OGT functions and to investigate other glycosyltransferases.
