Abstract excerpt
The yeast ALG7 gene functions by initiating the synthesis of the dolichol-linked oligosaccharide precursor and plays an important role in the control of protein N-glycosylation. The levels of ALG7 multiple transcripts are modulated by the physiological status of the cell and environmental cues, and deregulation of their abundance is deleterious to several cellular functions. Since ALG7 mRNAs are unstable, we...
