description

Cell wall mannoproteins from Saccharomyces cerevisiae are completely or partially incorporated into their final location when N-glycosylation is inhibited by tunicamycin. These include a 90–100 kDa species still containing O-linked oligomannose chains, derived from a N-glycosylated material larger than 120 kDa; and a 30.5 kDa peptide lacking mannose residues, derived from a 33 kDa species. For both species, the growth temperature influences the level of incorporation of the non N-glycosylated molecules. Secretion of the peptides lacking N-linked saccharide chains follows the route defined by sec mutants.
