Abstract excerpt
The cytoplasmic peptide:N-glycanase (PNGase; Ngly1 in mice) is a deglycosylating enzyme involved in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-associated degradation (ERAD) process. The precise role of Ngly1 in the ERAD process, however, remains unclear in mammals. The findings reported herein, using mouse embryonic fibroblast (MEF) cells, that the ablation of Ngly1 causes dysregulation of the ERAD process. Interestingly,...
