In vivo mapping of the mouse Galnt3-specific O-glycoproteome.

ABSTRACT: The UDP-N-acetylgalactosamine polypeptide:N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase (GalNAc-T) family of enzymes initiates O-linked glycosylation by catalyzing the addition of the first GalNAc sugar to serine or threonine on proteins destined to be membrane-bound or secreted. Defects in individual isoforms of the GalNAc-T family can lead to certain congenital disorders of glycosylation (CDG). The polypeptide N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase 3 (GALNT)3-CDG, is caused by mutations in GALNT3, resulting in hyperphosphatemic familial tumoral calcinosis due to impaired glycosylation of the phosphate-regulating hormone fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) within osteocytes of the bone. Patients with hyperphosphatemia present altered bone density, abnormal tooth structure, and calcified masses throughout
