Protein Glycosylation in the ER
Description
This template was adapted from the original submission. Edits were made to enhance scientific accuracy, optimal usability and/or to meet industry-leading design standards for science communication.
Glycosylation is the attachment of glycans to a functional group in protein and crucial for protein folding, stability, and adhesion between cells. This figure illustrates the protein glycosylation on asparagine residues within the ER. The oligosaccharide, consist of N-acetyl glucosamine, mannose, and glucose, is transferred from dolichol to asparagine. Then, three residues of glucose and one mannose residues are removed.
