The ocular albinism type 1 gene product is an N-glycoprotein but glycosylation is not required for its subcellular distribution.

Pigment cell research - 1 Dec 2001

Shen B, Orlow S J

Abstract excerpt

The ocular albinism type 1 (OA1) gene product is a membrane glycoprotein that may play a role in controlling melanosome growth and maturation. A number of mutations in the OA1 gene lead to ocular albinism due at least in part to retention of the aberrant protein in the endoplasmic reticulum. To examine whether N-glycosylation plays a role in the post-translational trafficking of the Oa1 protein, we constructed a...
