The bisecting N-acetylglucosamine of N-glycans appear dispensable for development and reproduction

The biosynthesis of complex asparagine (N)-linked oligosaccharides in vertebrates proceeds with the linkage of N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) to the core mannose residues. UDP-N-acetylglucosamine:β-D-mannoside β-4 N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase HI (GlcNAc-TIII, E.C. 2.4.1.144) catalyzes the additio...
