N-glycosylation Triggers a Dual Selection Pressure in Eukaryotic Secretory Proteins
Abstract Nearly one third of the eukaryotic proteome traverses the secretory pathway and most of these proteins are N-glycosylated in the lumen of the endoplasmic reticulum. N-glycans fulfill multiple structural and biological functions, and are crucial for productive folding of many glycoproteins....
