The involvement of glucose in fundamental metabolic pathways represents a core element of biology. Late in the 20th century, a unique glucose-derived signal was discovered, which appeared to be involved in a variety of cellular processes, including mitosis, transcription, insulin signaling, stress responses, and potentially, Alzheimer’s disease, and diabetes. By definition, this glucose-fed signaling system was a posttranslational modification to proteins. However, unlike classical cotranslational N-glycosylation occurring in the endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi apparatus, this process occurs elsewhere throughout the cell in a highly dynamic fashion, similar to the quintessential posttranslational modification, phosphorylation. This more recently described posttranslational modification, the β-O-linkage of N-acetylglucosamine (i.e., O-GlcNAc) to nucleocytoplasmic proteins, represents an under-investigated area of biology. This signaling system operates in all of the tissues examined and seems to have persisted throughout all multi-cellular eukaryotes. Thus, it comes with little surprise that O-GlcNAc signaling is an integral system and viable target for biomedical investigation. This system may be a boundless source for insight into a variety of diseases and yield numerous opportunities for drug design. This Perspective will address recent insights into O-GlcNAc signaling in the cardiovascular system as a paradigm for its involvement in other biological systems.
