The Ubiquitous Conserved Glycopeptidase Gcp Prevents Accumulation of Toxic Glycated Proteins
ABSTRACT Amadori-modified proteins (AMPs) are the products of nonenzymatic glycation formed by reaction of reducing sugars with primary amine-containing amino acids and can develop into advanced glycated end products (AGEs), highly stable toxic compounds. AGEs are known to participate in many age-re...
