Facts about Alpha-1,6-mannosylglycoprotein 6-beta-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase A.
Via its role in the biosynthesis of complex N- glycans, plays a significant role in the activation of cellular signaling pathways, reorganization of the actin cytoskeleton, cell-cell adhesion and cell migration. MGAT5-dependent EGFR N- glycosylation enhances the interaction between EGFR and LGALS3 and thereby prevents rapid EGFR endocytosis and prolongs EGFR signaling.
