N-glycan processing

Term ID

GO:0006491

Synonyms

glycoprotein trimming involved in glycoprotein maturation
N-linked glycoprotein maturation

Definition

The conversion of N-linked glycan (N = nitrogen) structures from the initially transferred oligosaccharide to a mature form, by the actions of glycosidases and glycosyltransferases. The early processing steps are conserved and play roles in glycoprotein folding and trafficking. (2)
