N-glycosylation enables high lateral mobility of GPI-anchored proteins at a molecular crowding threshold

How molecular crowding affects membrane protein diffusion and function is not known. Here the authors measure diffusion of variant surface glycoprotein on trypanosomes and discover a molecular crowding threshold that limits diffusion, and find that N-linked glycans help to prevent retarding intermol...
