NormalN-oligosaccharyltransferase activity in fibroblasts from patients with carbohydrate-deficient glycoprotein syndrome

  • Published:
Journal of Inherited Metabolic Disease

Summary

TheN-oligosaccharyltransferase activity was found to be normal in fibroblasts from five patients with the carbohydrate-deficient glycoprotein syndrome type I and type III using an assay based on dolichyldiphosphoryl-N-N′-diacetylchitobiose as donor and a hexapeptide as acceptor substrate.
