Abstract excerpt
Thermosensitive mutants of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, affected in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) located glycosylation, i.e. in Dol-P-Man synthase (dpm1), in beta-1,4 mannosyl transferase (alg1) and in alpha-1,3 mannosyltransferase (alg2), were used to assess the role of GDP-Man availability for the synthesis of dolichol-linked saccharides. The mutants were transformed with the yeast gene MPG1 (PSA1/VIG9) encoding...
