This study investigates how maternal Zika virus infection affects placental nutrient transporters and signaling pathways differently in male and female fetuses, revealing sex-specific molecular alterations in nutrient handling.

This paper develops a CRISPR-Cas9-based system to manipulate O-GlcNAc modification at cis-regulatory elements, demonstrating its role in γ-globin gene regulation.

This study reports the expression, purification, and characterization of hGFAT2, revealing its unique enzymatic properties and structural features.

This study shows hyperglycemia promotes cancer immune evasion by increasing O-GlcNAcylation in tumor-associated macrophages, shifting their polarization to a pro-tumorigenic M2-like phenotype.
