Disease relevance of Osgep

  • A putative O-sialoglycoprotease (a homologue of Pasteurella haemolytica glycoprotease, gcp; abbreviated as Prsmg1/Gcpl1) gene consisting of 11 exons and 10 introns spanning 7.3 kb lies immediately adjacent to the Apex gene in a 5'-to-5' orientation [1].
  • O-Sialoglycoprotein endopeptidase treatment revealed that on carcinomas and cell lines, the epitope was present on O-glycans [2].
 

High impact information on Osgep

  • The protein is sensitive to O-sialoglycoprotein endopeptidase, indicating that it belongs to the class of sialomucin-like proteins [3].
  • HL-60 cell rolling was almost completely abolished by pretreatment with sialidase or monoclonal antibody (MoAb) AM-3 recognizing sLex, and was reduced by about 80% by O-sialoglycoprotein-endopeptidase (OSGP) [4].
