[edit] Summary

Description

Comparative overview of the major types of vertebrate N-glycan subtypes and some representative C. elegans N-glycans. Top panel: Vertebrate diversification in the Golgi apparatus generates high-mannose, hybrid and complex N-glycan subtypes. Most cell surface and secreted N-glycans are of the complex subtype. Vertical arrows indicate locations of branch formation in diversification, not all of which occur on a single N-glycan. (Adapted from (Varki et al., 1999) Bottom panel: The main classes of C. elegans N-glycans include high-mannose (up to Man9GlcNAc2), pauci-mannosidic and hybrid type. Note that this scheme only includes some of the documented structures.
