Abstract excerpt
The major yeast exoglucanase (ExgIb) consists of a 408 amino acid polypeptide carrying two short N-linked oligosaccharides attached to asparagines 165 (Asn(165)) and 325 (Asn(325)). These oligosaccharides are very similar, in both length and composition, to those present in the vacuolar protease carboxypeptidase Y. Minor glycoforms of exoglucanase arise by underglycosylation of the protein precursor (Exg(165) and...
