As more than 1,000 proteins are now known to be O-linked β-N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc) modified, we refer readers to the following 2 sites for complete lists of O-GlcNAc modified proteins and amino acids: 1) http://cbsb.lombardi.georgetown.edu/hulab/OGAP.html and 2) http://www.phosphosite.org/homeAction.do;jsessionid=D89E4F582F1A5BE65C3034BC1883CDFF. ∫O-GlcNAc modification sites were mapped by BEMAD.
Identification by immunoprecipitation of the target protein was followed by Western blot with an O-GlcNAc specific antibody.
Identification by immunoprecipitation with an O-GlcNAc specific antibody or a GlcNAc-specific lectin was followed by detection with a protein specific antibody (this technique can produce false positives).
Spots that were reactive with an O-GlcNAc specific antibody on by two-dimensional PAGE were identified by mass spectrometry (this technique can produce false positives).STZ, streptozotocin; Cox1, cyclooxygenase 1; eNOS, endothelial nitric oxide (NO) synthase; DOCA, deoxycorticosterone acetate; HSP, heat shock protein; NDUFA9, NADH dehydrogenase [ubiquitin] 1α subcomplex subunit 9, mitochondrial; SERCA2a, cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase; VDAC, voltage-dependent anion-selective channel.
