Global Profiling of N-Glycoproteins and N-Glycans in the Diatom Phaeodactylum tricornutum.

ABSTRACT: N-glycosylation is an important posttranslational modification in all eukaryotes, but little is known about the N-glycoproteins and N-glycans in microalgae. Here, N-glycoproteomic and N-glycomic approaches were used to unveil the N-glycoproteins and N-glycans in the model diatom Phaeodactylum tricornutum. In total, 863 different N-glycopeptides corresponding to 639 N-glycoproteins were identified from P. tricornutum. These N-glycoproteins participated in a variety of important metabolic pathways in P. tricornutum. Twelve proteins participating in the N-glycosylation pathway were identified as N-glycoproteins, indicating that the N-glycosylation of these proteins might be important for the protein N-glycosylation pathway. Subsequently, 69 N-glycans corresponding to 59 N
