Abstract excerpt
The potassium ion channel Kv3.1b is a member of a family of voltage-gated ion channels that are glycosylated in their mature form. In the present study, we demonstrate the impact of N-glycosylation at specific asparagine residues on the trafficking of the Kv3.1b protein. Large quantities of asparagine 229 (N229)-glycosylated Kv3.1b reached the plasma membrane, whereas N220-glycosylated and unglycosylated Kv3.1b...
