Glycine data from LIS
Description | Members of this family are involved in asparagine-linked protein glycosylation. In particular, dolichyl-diphosphooligosaccharide-protein glycosyltransferase (DDOST), also known as oligosaccharyltransferase EC:2.4.1.119, transfers the high-mannose sugar GlcNAc(2)-Man(9)-Glc(3) from a dolichol-linked donor to an asparagine acceptor in a consensus Asn-X-Ser/Thr motif. In most eukaryotes, the DDOST complex is composed of three subunits, which in humans are described as a 48kD subunit, ribophorin I, and ribophorin II. However, the yeast DDOST appears to consist of six subunits (alpha, beta, gamma, delta, epsilon, zeta). The yeast beta subunit is a 45kD polypeptide, previously discovered as the Wbp1 protein, with known sequence similarity to the human 48kD subunit and the other orthologues. This family includes the 48kD-like subunits from several eukaryotes; it also includes the yeast DDOST beta subunit Wbp1. |
