Asparagine-linked glycosylation 1 homolog (S. cerevisiae, beta-1,4-mannosyltransferase), also known as ALG1, is a human gene.[1]

The biosynthesis of lipid-linked oligosaccharides is highly conserved among eukaryotes and is catalyzed by 14 glycosyltransferases in an ordered stepwise manner. Mannosyltransferase I (MT I) catalyzes the first mannosylation step in this process.[supplied by OMIM][1]
