A molecule that consists of a carbohydrate plus a protein. Glycoproteins play essential roles in the body. For instance, in the immune system almost all of the key molecules involved in the immune response are glycoproteins. A glycopeptide is similar in structure to a glycoprotein but has a shorter chain of amino acids.

A protein that has sugar molecules attached to it.

[Gk. glykys, sweet + proteios, primary] A protein with covalently attached carbohydrate.

a membrane-bound protein which has attached branching carbohydrates. These may function in cell-cell recognition, such as in human blood groups and immune system response, as well as in resisting comp [..]

A protein with carbohydrate modifications; can be secreted from the cell or embedded in the membrane; interactions between glycoproteins on adjacent cells permit cell-cell communication. © Nat [..]

A protein linked to an oligosaccharide or a polysaccharide. Glycosaminoglycans. Long, unbranched polysaccharide chains composed of repeating disaccharide subunits in which one of the two sugars is eit [..]

(n) a conjugated protein having a carbohydrate component

A glycoprotein is a protein joined to a carbohydrate.

Any protein to which one or more oligosaccharide chains are covalently linked. Most secreted proteins and many membrane proteins are glycoproteins.

Conjugated protein-carbohydrate compounds including Mucins, mucoid, and Amyloid glycoproteins.

A lectin and Cell Adhesion molecule found in B-Lymphocytes. It interacts with Sialic Acids and mediates signaling from B-Cell Antigen Receptors.

Glycoprotein from Sendai, para-Influenza, Newcastle Disease, and other Viruses that participates in binding the Virus to Cell-surface receptors. The HN protein possesses both Hemagglutinin and Neurami [..]

A transmembrane protein present in the Myelin Sheath of the Central Nervous System. It is one of the main Autoantigens implicated in the pathogenesis of Multiple Sclerosis.

A member of the Immunoglobulin superfamily of Neuronal Cell Adhesion Molecules that is required for proper Nervous System development. Neural Cell Adhesion Molecule L1 consists of six Ig domains, five [..]

Glycoproteins found on the surfaces of Cells, particularly in fibrillar structures. The Proteins are lost or reduced when these Cells undergo viral or chemical transformation. They are highly suscepti [..]

A protein that accounts for more than half of the Peripheral Nervous System myelin protein. The extraCellular domain of this protein is believed to engage in Adhesive interactions and thus hold the my [..]

A major adhesion-associated heterodimer molecule expressed by Monocytes; Granulocytes; NK Cells; and some Lymphocytes. The alpha subunit is the CD11c Antigen, a Surface Antigen expressed on some Myelo [..]

Glycoproteins found on the Membrane or surface of Cells.

A molecule that consists of a protein plus one or more carbohydrates.

A protein that has sugar molecules attached to it.

A biomolecule composed of a protein and a carbohydrate.

Proteins with covalently attached sugar units, either bonded via the OH group of serine or threonine O glycosylated) or through the amide NH2 of asparagine (N glycosylated).

A molecule that consists of a carbohydrate plus a protein. Glycoproteins play essential roles in the body. For instance, in the immune system almost all of the key molecules involved in the immune response are glycoproteins.

A protein with covalently bound carbohydrates.

A conjugated protein found in blood.

A protein-conjugate with a carbohydrate (sugar) component.
