- Abstract
- This study provides the first functional characterization of Gmh5p as a mannosyltransferase of the GT34 family and demonstrates its role in N-glycan biosynthesis. Our findings expand the current understanding of the diversity and specificity of glycosyltransferases in eukaryotes and highlight their importance in cell wall biology.
