Isn't it amazing when a fresh new preprint is out on Friday? 😎🥳 Check out the fabulous work by @beatricetropea.bsky.social who gives us a clear mechanistic explanation behind the 'peculiar' structure of the LLO donor preferentially chosen by eukaryotic OST 🤓😍 doi.org/10.64898/202...
Figure 1. Structural overview of the yeast OST complex and donor-binding site. (a) 3D structure of the yeast OST complex embedded in the ER membrane (brown sticks), showing the 8 subunits as surface color coded according to the labels. The lipid-linked oligosaccharide (LLO) donor is shown in orange and the backbone of the acceptor peptide is shown with a cartoon representation in yellow. The central panel shows the 2D SNFG representation of the LLO donor, with labels specifying glycosidic linkages and the nomenclature used for the branches. Below we show the sequence of an acceptor peptide, i.e. YJR1_N99, used as substrate in all MD simulations in this work, where the target asparagine was previously characterised as efficiently glycosylated(Khaleque et al. 2025). (b) Close-up view of the donor-binding pocket from the cryo-EM structure (PDB ID: 8AGC), showing the resolved LLO donor represented in sticks (orange) and SNFG symbols and the Stt3 N539 glycan (white). (c) Close-up view of the donor-binding pocket from the 3D model used in the MD simulations with the reconstructed N-glycans. The monosaccharides resolved in the cryo-EM structure are shown in white and orange as in panel b, whereas the monosaccharides added in the reconstruction of the full LLO donor and N539 glycan are highlighted in dark orange and grey, respectively.
