Abstract excerpt
Mucin-type O-linked glycosylation, a posttranslational modification affecting the stability and biophysical characteristics of proteins, requires C1GalT1 (T synthase) and its obligate, X-linked chaperone Cosmc. Hypomorphic C1GalT1 mutations cause renal failure via not yet established mechanisms. We hypothesize that impaired Cosmc-dependent O-glycosylation in podocytes is sufficient to cause disease....
