Abstract excerpt
Malectin is an endoplasmic reticulum-resident lectin, which recognizes di-glucosylated Glc(2)Man(9)GlcNAc(2) (G2M9) N-glycans on newly synthesized glycoproteins. We previously demonstrated that malectin preferentially associates with misfolded glycoproteins and inhibits their secretion (Chen, Y., Hu, D., Yabe, R., Tateno, H., Qin, S. Y., Matsumoto, N., Hirabayashi, J., and Yamamoto, K. (2011) Mol. Biol. Cell 22,...
