Muc7 Models of Peptide Glycostation (MMPG)

Working Group leader: Kristopher Waynant

Group members: Darren Thompson, Tyler Siegford, Tanner Hahn

Originated: March 1, 2019

Description:

Modeling efforts of Muc7 homologs for understanding possible glycosylation patterning that will allow for bacterial agglutination. Using the preliminary results from this data we are attempting to synthesize the first of these analogs. We hope to see the first expected glycosylation models in September, as to create them synthetically and evaluate their viability.
