Abstract excerpt
Seizure-related gene 6 (sez-6) is a trans-membrane protein expressed by neuronal cells that modulates dendritic branching. It has three clusters of eleven possible N-glycosylation sites in the extracellular domain region: sugar chain (SC)1-3, SC4-7, and SC8-11. Recent reports suggest that N-glycosylation modulates the membrane trafficking and function of trans-membrane proteins. Here, we studied the role of...
