Abstract excerpt
Functions of the carbohydrate side chains of the yeast vacuolar enzyme carboxypeptidase Y (CPY) were investigated by removal, through site-directed mutagenesis, of the sequences which act as signals for N-linked glycosylation. The mutant forms of the enzyme were analysed with respect to activity and intracellular sorting, and the stabilities in vivo and in vitro were studied. It was found that carbohydrate was...
