High abundance of Serine/Threonine-rich regions predicted to be hyper-<it>O</it>-glycosylated in the secretory proteins coded by eight fungal genomes
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p><it>O</it>-glycosylation of secretory proteins has been found to be an important factor in fungal biology and virulence. It consists in the addition of short glycosidic chains to Ser or Thr residues in the protein backbon...
