O-glycosylation has been considered a limiting factor in protein secretion in filamentous fungi. Overexpression of the yeast DPM1 gene encoding dolichylphosphate mannose synthase (DPMS) in an Aspergillus nidulans mutant (BWB26A) deficient in O-glycosylation caused an increase in the number of secretory vesicles and changes in protein secretion. However, the secretory proteins, primarily O-mannosylated glucoamylase and N-glycosylated invertase, were mainly trapped in the periplasmic space. Different glycoforms of invertase were found insite the cells, in the periplasmic space and in the cultivation medium. Our data point to the importance of the cell wall as a barrier in protein secretion.

The saliva of Rhynocoris marginatus consists of amylase, invertase, trehalase, protease, acid phosphatase, alkaline phosphatase, phospholipase, lipase, trypsin, hyaluronidase, and esterase. All enzyme activities were significantly higher in the saliva of female R. marginatus when compared to the saliva of male individuals. The saliva was analyzed by tricine SDS/PAGE, sephadex column chromatography, FT-IR, and MALDI-TOF. The pH of the saliva was slightly alkali. The SDS/PAGE revealed a few proteins with molecular masses greater than 29.5 and 36.2 kDa for male and female predator saliva respectively. The FT-IR spectrum confirmed the acidic, proteinaceous, enzymatic, and aromatic nature of the saliva. The MALDI-TOF-MS revealed the presence of enzymes, proteins, peptides, and other biomolecules. The most prominent peptides were named as RmIT-1 (3.79 kDa), RmIT-2 (9.7 kDa), and RmIT-3 (10.94 kDa) (Rhynocoris marginatus Insect Toxin). Further studies are underway to isolate and identify these biomolecules.
