A general O ‐glycosylation system : The highlighted publication, which was recently published by Laurie E. Comstock's group, describes a general protein O‐glycosylation system of the human intestinal symbiont Bacteroides fragilis. This broadening of knowledge about protein glycosylation systems is discussed in the context of prokaryotic protein glycosylation in general.
