Abstract
Glycosylation of proteins is an important post-translational modification that plays a role in a wide range of biological processes, including immune response, intercellular signaling, inflammation, and host-pathogen interaction. Abnormal protein glycosylation has been correlated with various diseases. However, the study of protein glycosylation remains challenging due to its low abundance, microheterogeneity of glycosylation sites, and low ionization efficiency. During the past decade, several methods for enrichment and for isolation of glycopeptides from biological samples have been developed and successfully employed in glycoproteomics research. In this chapter, we discuss the sample preparation protocol and the strategies for effectively isolating and enriching glycopeptides from biological samples, using PolyHYDROXYETHYL A as a hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography (HILIC) enrichment technique.
