Gene Details: ALG8
1 / 1
General Information
Gene Name: ALG8 (Dolichyl pyrophosphate Glc1Man9GlcNAc2 alpha-1,3-glucosyltransferase)
Synonym:
Short Names:
Alternative Names: Asparagine-linked glycosylation protein 8 homolog;Dol-P-Glc:Glc(1)Man(9)GlcNAc(2)-PP-dolichyl alpha-1,3-glucosyltransferase;Dolichyl-P-Glc:Glc1Man9GlcNAc2-PP-dolichyl glucosyltransferase;
Notes:
- Dol-P-Glc is formed from UDP-Glc using ALG5.
- Three Glc residues are then transferred from Dol-P-Glc to the LLO using ALG6 [α(1,3)GlcT], ALG8 [α(1,3)GlcT] and ALG10 [α(1,2)GlcT].
