Abstract excerpt
Processing of the glycan structures on glycoproteins by different glycosylation enzymes depends on, among other, the non-uniform distribution of these enzymes within the Golgi stacks. This compartmentalization is achieved by a balance between anterograde and retrograde vesicular trafficking. If the balance is disturbed, the glycosylation machinery is mislocalized, which can cause Congenital Disorders of...
