Importance of N-glycosylation at the Neuromuscular Junction

Asparagine-linked glycosylation (N-glycosylation) is the process of attaching complex carbohydrate trees to asparagines in a peptide motif consisting of Asparagine-X-Serine/Threonine, where X can be any amino acid except proline. N-glycosylation is one of the most common forms of post-translational modification that is present on roughly half of…
