basic FUNCTION
| may have an oligosaccharyltransferase activity |
|
RPN1 isoform, required for efficient cotranslational glycosylation of an acceptor site adjacent to the N-terminal signal sequence of a secreted protein |
|
efficiently mediates posttranslational glycosylation of a C-terminal glycosylation site in an unfolded protein |
|
distinct and complementary roles for the RPN1 isoforms STT3A, STT3B allowing sequential scanning of polypeptides for acceptor sites to insure the maximal efficiency of N-glycosylation |
|
STT3B-dependent posttranslational N-glycosylation is part of a triage-salvage system recognizing cryptic N-glycosylation sites of secretory proteins to preserve protein homeostasis |
|
one prominent role of the STT3B complex is to mediate glycosylation of sequons that are skipped by the STT3A complex, including those at the extreme C terminus of proteins |
