Gene:
asparagine-linked glycosylation 1 homolog (yeast, beta-1,4-mannosyltransferase)
Gene ID:
199200
Symbol:
ALG1
Species:
1000
Description:
The biosynthesis of lipid-linked oligosaccharides is highly conserved among eukaryotes and is catalyzed by 14 glycosyltransferases in an ordered stepwise manner. Mannosyltransferase I (MT I) catalyzes the first mannosylation step in this process.[supplied by OMIM]
