Abstract excerpt
Unlike their counterparts in budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the glycoproteins of Schizosaccharomyces pombe contain, in addition to alpha-D-mannose (Man), a large number of alpha-D-galactose (Gal) residues. In both yeasts, large outer chains are attached to the oligosaccharide cores of glycoproteins during export via Golgi. Formation of the yeast-specific large outer chain is initiated by...
