ALG1

Chitobiosyldiphosphodolichol beta-mannosyltransferase is an is_associated_with::enzyme that is encoded by the ALG1 is_associated_with::gene whose structure and function has been conserved from yeast to man.

Function
The biosynthesis of lipid-linked is_associated_with::oligosaccharides is highly conserved among is_associated_with::eukaryotes and is catalyzed by 14 is_associated_with::glycosyltransferases in an ordered stepwise manner. The Alg1 mannosyltransferase I (MT I) catalyzes the first is_associated_with::mannosylation step in this process.
