| 2.4.1.257 | GDP-alpha-D-mannose + D-Man-alpha-(1->3)-D-Man-beta-(1->4)-D-GlcNAc-beta-(1->4)-D-GlcNAc-diphosphodolichol |
in eukaryotes, biosynthesis of N-glycans starts with the assembly of the common core oligosaccharide precursor Glc3Man9 GlcNAc2-PP-Dol, the glycan moiety of which is subsequently transferred onto selected Asn-Xaa-(Ser/Thr) acceptor sites of the nascent polypeptide chain by the oligosaccharyl-transferase complex |
| 2.4.1.257 | GDP-alpha-D-mannose + D-Man-alpha-(1->3)-D-Man-beta-(1->4)-D-GlcNAc-beta-(1->4)-D-GlcNAc-diphosphodolichol |
the biosynthesis of asparagine-linked glycoproteins utilizes a dolichylpyrophosphate-linked glycosyl donor, which is assembled by the series of membrane-bound glycosyltransferases that comprise the dolichol pathway. Alg2 carries out an alpha1,3-mannosylation of D-Man-beta-(1-4)-D-GlcNAc-beta-(1-4)-D-GlcNAc-diphosphodolichol, followed by an alpha1,6-mannosylation, to form the first branched pentasaccharide intermediate of the dolichol pathway |
