Q

How is pre-oligosaccharide assembled?

A

Two molecules of UDP-N-acetylglucosamine donate N-acetylglucosamine to pyrophosphate.

Five molecules of GDP-mannose donate mannose to the N-acetylglucosamines.

Q

How many mannoses and glucoses are added to the sugars on the end of the dolichol complex?

A

4 mannoses
3 glucoses

17
Q

Why is it needed to add 4 mannose and 3 glucose on the end of the dolichol complex?

A

to finish intermediate (Dolichol-GlcNAc2-Man9-Glc3)`

18
Q

The finished intermediate is transferred to _________ on ________ of the ____________

A

amide nitrogen; asparagine; target protein

19
Q

In last alterations, the protein folds and __________ are removed

A

three glucoses

20
Q

True or False: If the protein cannot fold properly, it cannot leave the ER and the glucoses remain intact

A

True
