1.
Jones D, Mehlert A, Ferguson M
Biochem Soc Trans . 2004 Oct; 32(Pt 5):766-8. PMID: 15494010
Reactions involving removal and addition of glucose to N-glycans in the ER (endoplasmic reticulum) are performed in higher eukaryotes by glucosidases I and II and the UDP-glucose:glycoprotein glucosyltransferase respectively. Monoglucosylated...

Garami A, Mehlert A, Ilg T
Mol Cell Biol . 2001 Nov; 21(23):8168-83. PMID: 11689705
Leishmania parasites synthesize an abundance of mannose (Man)-containing glycoconjugates thought to be essential for virulence to the mammalian host and for viability. These glycoconjugates include lipophosphoglycan (LPG), proteophosphoglycans (PPGs), glycosylphosphatidylinositol...

Milne K, Mehlert A, Ferguson M
Biochim Biophys Acta . 2001 Mar; 1531(1-2):1-3. PMID: 11278169
Pseudomonas acyl-CoA synthetase is shown to act on saturated dicarboxylic acids with a chain length of C10 or greater to produce conjugates containing a single CoA unit. The synthetase can,...

Almeida I, Camargo M, Procopio D, Silva L, Mehlert A, Travassos L, et al.
EMBO J . 2000 Apr; 19(7):1476-85. PMID: 10747016
Intracellular protozoan parasites are potent stimulators of cell-mediated immunity. The induction of macrophage proinflammatory cytokines by Trypanosoma cruzi is considered to be important in controlling the infection and the outcome...

Zitzmann N, Mehlert A, Carrouee S, Rudd P, Ferguson M, Carroue S
Glycobiology . 2000 Mar; 10(3):243-9. PMID: 10704523
The variant surface glycoproteins (VSGs) of Trypanosoma brucei are a family of homodimeric glycoproteins that adopt similar shapes. An individual trypanosome expresses one VSG at a time in the form...

Lischke A, Klein C, Stierhof Y, Hempel M, Mehlert A, Almeida I, et al.
Biochem J . 2000 Jan; 345 Pt 3:693-700. PMID: 10642530
Wild and farmed freshwater fishes are widely and heavily parasitized by the haemoflagellate Trypanosoma carassii. In contrast, common carp, a natural host, can effectively control experimental infections by the production...

Cole R, Mehlert A, Lee M, Ferguson M, Englund P
J Biol Chem . 1999 Oct; 274(42):29763-71. PMID: 10514452
The surface of the insect stages of the protozoan parasite Trypanosoma brucei is covered by abundant glycosyl phosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored glycoproteins known as procyclins. One type of procyclin, the EP isoform,...

Branquinha M, Vermelho A, Almeida I, Mehlert A, Ferguson M
Mol Biochem Parasitol . 1999 Sep; 102(1):179-89. PMID: 10477186
The polar glycoinositol phospholipids (GIPLs) of a Trypanosoma species that belongs to the Schizotrypanum subgenus were purified by reversed-phase and normal-phase liquid chromatography and analysed by negative-ion mode electrospray-mass spectrometry...

Wilson I, ODonnell N, Allen S, Mehlert A, Ferguson M
Mol Biochem Parasitol . 1999 Jul; 100(2):207-15. PMID: 10391382
A method has been developed to identify the repeating phosphosaccharide units of Leishmania lipophosphoglycans using electrospray mass-spectrometry (ES-MS). Cone voltage-induced fragmentation of intact lipophosphoglycan was found to be as effective...
