Similarly, we show that the animal extracellular matrix protein leprecan [ 20] defines a hitherto unknown family of protein hydroxylases that might be involved in the generation of substrates for protein glycosylation.
Androgen treatment also induced a number of genes that participate in protein folding and glycosylation (Figure 5b).
A naturally occuring Asn57Asp polymorphism may be associated with JOAG [ 39 ] which, if truly disease-associated, would suggest the functional importance of N-linked glycosylation.
Indeed, it is known that anakinra, the recombinant form of human IL-1Ra, differs from its naturally occurring counterpart by possessing an additional amino-terminal methionine residue and lacking glycosylation [ 26 ] . In the first part of the present study similar end-point levels of transgenic and recombinant IL-1Ra were necessary to inhibit fully the response of synoviocytes to a single challenge with IL-1β.
Variations in glycosylation patterns have been shown to exist among tissues [ 31 ] and glycosylation levels have been reported to influence hyaluronidase activity of SPAM1 in the mouse and horse [ 10 32 ] . Note that in the mouse, tissue differences in glycosylation patterns have been reported for the testis and epididymis [ 33 ] . It is possible that in the epididymis and vas deferens instead of hyaluronidase activity, a more important role of SPAM1 (which is a glycosidase) may be to modify surface proteins of sperm during their maturation.
