Glycosylation is a ubiquitous post-translational modification responsible for a multitude of
crucial biological roles. As obligate parasites, viruses exploit host-cell machinery to …

The protein glycosylation is a post-translational modification of crucial importance for its
involvement in molecular recognition, protein trafficking, regulation, and inflammation …

Viruses are a heterogeneous ensemble of entities, all sharing the need for a suitable host to
replicate. They are extremely diverse, varying in morphology, size, nature, and complexity of …

N‐glycans from glycoproteins are complex, branched structures whose structural

Mimivirus is the prototype of the Mimiviridae family of giant dsDNA viruses. Little is known
about the organization of the 1.2 Mb genome inside the membrane-limited nucleoid filling …

The recent discovery that giant viruses encode proteins related to sugar synthesis and
processing paved the way for the study of their glycosylation machinery. We focused on the …

The general perception of viruses is that they are small in terms of size and genome, and
that they hijack the host machinery to glycosylate their capsid. Giant viruses subvert all these …

The chlorovirus Paramecium bursaria chlorella virus 1 (PBCV-1) is a large dsDNA virus that
