doi: 10.7554/elife.24419
Figure Lengend Snippet: Figure 1. EOGT promotes NOTCH1 binding to Delta ligands. (A) Diagram of predicted O-glycans on mouse NOTCH1: red triangle, O-fucose glycans; blue circle, O-glucose glycans; blue square, O-GlcNAc glycans. Individual sugar residues that may extend O-fucose, O-glucose or O-GlcNAc to varying degrees are: yellow circle, galactose; pink diamond, sialic acid; orange star, xylose. (B) Flow cytometry of Lec1 CHO cells expressing vector control or Eogt siRNA with NOTCH1 mAb, DLL1-Fc, DLL4-Fc or JAG1-Fc. (C) Relative mean fluorescence index (MFI) for binding of DLL1-Fc and DLL4-Fc to control and Eogt-siRNA Lec1 cells. Concentrations of ligand varied from 100 to 750 ng/ml. MFI values for binding to control cells taken as 1.0 were 455 ± 55 (DLL1-Fc) and 1215 ± 49 (DLL4-Fc). Data from 9 to 10 independent experiments are average, normalized MFI ± SEM; significance determined by paired, two-tailed Student’s t-test, *p<0.05, ****p<0.0001. (D) MFI values obtained for binding of Figure 1 continued on next page
