Abstract excerpt
N-glycosylation was measured in wild-type cell lysates of Dictyostelium discoideum and in two mutant strains that synthesize a truncated lipid-linked oligosaccharide, Man6GlcNAc2 lacking terminal mannose and glucose residues. Endogenous lipid-linked oligosaccharide (LLO) was transferred to octanoyl-Asn-[125I]Tyr-ThrNH2 by membrane fractions. About 50% of the glycopeptide product remained associated with...
