The role of the ER glucosyltransferase in the quality control of glycoprotein maturation

N-linked glycans serve as quality control tags in the eukaryotic secretory pathway. The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) protein UDP-glucose: glycoprotein glucosyltransferase 1 (GT1) is the main enzyme that modifies carbohydrate tags based upon the folding state of the maturing substrate. GT1 adds glucose...
