| 2. |
En-bloc
transfer of the
|
|
|
oligosaccharide
to the
|
|
|
protein
|
|
| • |
One step
transfer, catalyzed by
|
|
|
oligosaccharyl
transferase,
|
|
|
which is bound
to the membrane
|
|
at the
translocator.

| • |
Covalently
attached to certain
|
|
|
asparagines in
the polypeptide
|
|
|
chain (said to be
“N-linked”
|
|
|
glycosylation).
|
|
| • |
Attaches
to NH2 side chain of
|
|
|
|
|
Asn but only in
the context:
|

Asn-x-Ser or
Asn-x-Thr
