1 Structure of the N-linked core glycan.
Structure of the N-linked core glycan. The triantennary tetradecaoligosaccharide is assembled on the ER membrane and is covalently linked to the Asn side chains in the context of the N-glycosylation sequon of newly translocated proteins. The 14-sugar form, starting from the Asn residue, contains two N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc, squares), nine mannose (circles) and three glucose (triangles) residues. The three branches – A, B and C – are illustrated. Glycosidic linkage types are indicated next to the connectors. Sean P. Ferris et al. Dis. Model.
