Application

O-(2-acetamido-2deoxy-D-glucopyranosylidene)amino-N-phenylcarbamate (PUGNAc) has been used to evaluate the effects of silibinin on O-GlcNAc levels of glycoproteins in Adult Retinal Pigment Epithelial-19 (ARPE-19) cells. It has also been used as a component of the HEPES lysis buffer for rat brain samples.
PUGNAc has been used as an inhibitor of O-GlcNAc-β-N-acetylglucosaminidase.

Biochem/physiol Actions

O-(2-acetamido-2deoxy-D-glucopyranosylidene)amino-N-phenylcarbamate (PUGNAc) induces insulin resistance in 3T3-L1 adipocytes by reducing insulin-prompting phosphorylation of protein kinase B (Akt) and glycogen synthase kinase 3β (GSK3β).
PUGNAc is an in vitro and in vivo inhibitor of peptide O-GlcNAc-β-N-acetylglucosaminidase, the enzyme which removes O-linked N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc) from O-linked glycosylated proteins.

O-GlcNAcylation is an essential, dynamic and inducible post-translational glycosylation of cytosolic proteins in metazoa and can show interplay with protein phosphorylation. Inhibition of OGA (O-GlcNAcase), the enzyme that removes O-GlcNAc from O-GlcNAcylated proteins, is a useful strategy to probe the

The O-GlcNAc modification is found on many nucleocytoplasmic proteins. The dynamic nature of O-GlcNAc, which in some ways is reminiscent of phosphorylation, has enabled investigators to modulate the stoichiometry of O-GlcNAc on proteins in order to study its function. Although
