Abstract
Severe allergic reactions to certain types of meat following tick bites have been reported in geographic regions which are endemic with ticks. This immune response is directed to a carbohydrate antigen (galactose-α-1,3-galactose or α-Gal), which is present in glycoproteins of mammalian meats. At the moment, asparagine-linked complex carbohydrates (N-glycans) with α-Gal motifs in meat glycoproteins and in which cell types or tissue morphologies these α-Gal moieties are present in mammalian meats are still unclear. In this study, we analyzed α-Gal-containing N-glycans in beef, mutton, and pork tenderloin and provided for the first time the spatial distribution of these types of N-glycans in various meat samples. Terminal α-Gal-modified N-glycans were found to be highly abundant in all analyzed samples (55, 45, and 36% of N-glycome in beef, mutton, and pork, respectively). Visualizations of the N-glycans with α-Gal modification revealed that this motif was mainly present in the fibroconnective tissue. To conclude, this study contributes to a better understanding of the glycosylation biology of meat samples and provides guidance for processed meat products, in which only meat fibers are required as an ingredient (i.e., sausages or canned meat).

Abstract
Peptide-N 4-(N-acetyl-β-glucosaminyl) asparagine amidases (PNGases, N-glycanases, EC 3.5.1.52) are indispensable tools in releasing N-glycans from glycoproteins. So far, only a limited number of PNGase candidates are available for the structural analysis of glycoproteins and their glycan moieties. Herein, a panel of 13 novel PNGase H+ candidates (the suffix H+ refers to the acidic pH optimum of these acidobacterial PNGases) was tested in their recombinant form for their deglycosylation performance. One candidate (originating from the bacterial species Dyella japonica) showed superior properties both in solution-phase and immobilized on amino-, epoxy- and nitrilotriacetate resins when compared to currently acidic available PNGases. The high expression yield compared to a previously described PNGase H+, broad substrate specificity, and good storage stability of this novel N-glycanase makes it a valuable tool for the analysis of protein glycosylation.

Abstract
The Hall and Seebeck effects of the stripe-ordered superconductor La(1.6-x)Nd(0.4)Sr(x)CuO(4) single crystals (x = 0.10, 0.12 and 0.15) were investigated systematically. The sign change of Hall and Seebeck coefficients (R(H) and S) from positive to negative with decreasing temperature suggests the presence of electron pockets in the Fermi surface due to the stripe ordering. We successfully tune this behavior through an epitaxial strain induced by the mismatch between the thin film and the substrate. The negative R(H) disappears in the thinner film in which the static charge stripe is greatly suppressed by the strong epitaxial strain, and for a strain released thicker film the negative R(H) recovers. These results indicate the possibility of Fermi surface reconstruction caused by the static charge stripe order in the system.
