A few weeks of delay but still very fresh, the end of an unforgettable chapter: my main PhD paper is in PNAS!!! 🤩 1/5

Perturbing nuclear glycosylation in the mouse preimplantation embryo slows down embryonic development | PNAS
The main form of intracellular protein glycosylation (O-GlcNAc) is reversible and
has been mapped on thousands of cytoplasmic and nuclear proteins,...

1st 1st-author paper of my PhD (& of my career 😊) is out 🤓 OGT is the only enzyme for reversible intracellular glycosylation in animals. Using a mouse allelic series of hypomorphic OGT-mutants, we discover that intracellular glycosylation is essential for mammalian embryonic development..1/3
Researchers in the Boulard group at EMBL Rome demonstrated for the first time that the catalytic activity of the OGT enzyme is essential for embryonic development, and that when it’s reduced, embryo development is delayed – especially in males.
