Abstract excerpt
Initial steps in N-linked glycosylation involve formation of a large oligosaccharide structure on a lipid carrier, dolichyl phosphate. We have previously characterized Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) glycosylation mutants (Lec9 cells) that utilize the polyisoprenoid lipid polyprenyl phosphate rather than dolichyl phosphate in these glycosylation reactions. Polyprenyl phosphate differs from dolichyl phosphate only in...
