Introduction

N-glycosylation is conserved from yeast to humans.

Glycoprotein profiling of N-glycans may be facilitated by DSA-FACE.[1]

Activated core oligosaccharide of dolichol pyrophosphate transfered enbloc to a specific asparigine residue of growing ER & GOLGI-processed proteins within the lumen of the endoplasmic reticulum.
