I love this thread by @glycoshape.org, this is @bsky.app at its best!
Super interesting work from @carolynbertozzi.bskyverified.social group about the effects of glycosylation in protein structure and function at the proteome scale 🤯💥🤩
Results show that sialylation and fucosylation are crucial, which makes a lot of sense. We did some extra bits 🧐 with GlycoShape ⬇️🧵

Congratulations former postdoc @jfhevler.bsky.social (in transit to Roche) and the team on their work using thermal proteome profiling along with glycosylation perturbagens to discover glycan-dependent protein functions at the proteome scale 👏
