| carbohydrate-deficient glycoprotein syndrome | <syndrome> An inborn error of carbohydrate metabolism manifesting as a genetic multisystem disorder of autosomal recessive inheritance. A predominant feature is severe central and peripheral nervous system involvement resulting in psychomotor retardation, seizures, cerebellar ataxia, and other symptoms which include growth retardation, retinitis pigmentosa, hypothyroidism, and fatty liver. The notable biochemical feature is the deficiency of a large number of blood glycoproteins and decreased activities of various blood coagulation factors. (12 Dec 1998) |

| variable surface glycoprotein | <protein> One of a battery of antigenicdeterminants expressed by a microorganism to elude immune detection. (09 Oct 1997) |
| mannosyl-glycoprotein endo-beta-n-acetylglucosaminidase | <enzyme> A group of related enzymes responsible for the endohydrolysis of the di-n-acetylchitobiosyl unit in high-mannose-content glycopeptides and glycoproteins. Chemical name: Glycopeptide-D-mannosyl-N(4)-(N-acetyl-D-glucosaminyl)2-asparagine 1,4-N-acetyl-beta-glucosaminohydrolase Registry number: EC 3.2.1.96 (12 Dec 1998) |
| glycine-rich beta-glycoprotein | <enzyme> A glycine-rich, heat-labile beta-glycoprotein found in blood. It is a proactivator of complement 3 in the alternate pathway of complement activation. Factor b is converted by factor d to c3 convertase. Registry number: EC 3.4.21.47 (12 Dec 1998) |
| glycoprotein | <protein> Proteins with covalently attached sugar units, either bonded via the OH group of serine or threonine O glycosylated) or through the amide NH2 of asparagine (N glycosylated). Includes most secreted proteins (serum albumin is the major exception) and proteins exposed at the outer surface of the plasma membrane. Sugar residues found include: mannose, N acetyl glucosamine, N acetyl galactosamine, galactose, fucose and sialic acid. (18 Nov 1997) |
| glycoprotein endo-alpha-1,3-mannosidase | <enzyme> An endomannosidase; cleaves glucosyl alpha1-3-mannose from monoglucosylated oligosaccharide (glcman(7-9)glcnac) of the glycoprotein produced in the golgi membrane Registry number: EC 3.2.1.130 Synonym: glucosyl mannosidase (26 Jun 1999) |
| glycoprotein glycosyltransferase | <enzyme> Enzymes which add monosaccharides from nucleoside mono-or diphosphate monosaccharides onto glycoproteins Registry number: EC 2.4.1.- (26 Jun 1999) |
| glycoprotein hormones, alpha subunit | A non-covalently bound subunit of the glycoprotein hormones tsh, fsh, lh, and hcg which originates in the anterior pituitary gland and placenta. This subunit is virtually identical in structure and indistinguishable by radioimmunoassay in all of the above glycoproteins. It is present in both men and women, but is elevated in postmenopausal women and in patients with hypothyroidism, uraemia and malignant tumours. The alpha subunit may be involved directly in recognition of certain receptors. (12 Dec 1998) |
| glycoprotein hormone-specific N-acetylgalactosamine transferase | <enzyme> Transfers galnac to the terminal glcnac moieties of glcnac2man3glcnac2asn Registry number: EC 2.4.1.- Synonym: ghs-acgalnh2 transferase, glycoprotein hormone galnac transferase, glycoprotein hormone - n-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase (26 Jun 1999) |
| glycoprotein-N-acetylgalactosamine 3-beta-galactosyltransferase | <enzyme> Forms o-glycan core i; forms galactosyl beta 1,3-n-acetylgalactosaminide mucin Registry number: EC 2.4.1.122 Synonym: udp-galactose-n-acetylgalactosamine-alpha-r beta3-galactosyltransferase, glycoprotein-galnac-galactosyltransferase, gp galnac gal transferase, core I beta3-galactosyltransferase, galnac-1-o-ser or thr 1-3 galactosyltransferase, udp-gal-n-acetylgalactosaminide mucin-beta 1,3-galactosyltransferase, udpgal-nacgm-galactosyltransferase, udp-galactose-alpha-n-acetylgalactosaminide beta 3 galactosyltransferase (26 Jun 1999) |
| p-glycoprotein | <cell biology, protein> A family of integral plasma membrane proteins which, when overexpressed, function as adenosine triphosphate-dependent efflux pumps, causing multidrug resistance. Mammalian p-glycoproteins are encoded by small mdr gene families. There are several isotypes in multiple species. See: multidrug transporter. (22 Sep 2002) |
| platelet glycoprotein gpib-ix complex | Platelet membrane glycoprotein complex essential for normal platelet adhesion and clot formation at sites of vascular injury. It is composed of three polypeptides, gpib alpha, gpib beta, and gpix. Glycoprotein ib functions as a receptor for von willebrand factor and for thrombin. Congenital deficiency of the gpib-ix complex results in bernard-soulier syndrome. The platelet glycoprotein gpv associates with gpib-ix and is also absent in bernard-soulier syndrome. (12 Dec 1998) |
| platelet glycoprotein gpiib-iiia complex | Platelet membrane glycoprotein complex important for platelet adhesion and aggregation. The complex is an integrin which recognises the arginine-glycine-aspartic acid (rgd) sequence present on several adhesive proteins. As such, it is a receptor for fibrinogen, von willebrand factor, fibronectin, vitronectin, and thrombospondin. A deficiency of gpiib-iiia results in glanzmann's thrombasthenia. (12 Dec 1998) |
| mucus glycoprotein sulfotransferase | <enzyme> Specific for gastric mucus sulfation Registry number: EC 2.8.2.- Synonym: mucus gp sulfotransferase (26 Jun 1999) |
| myelin-associated glycoprotein | A myelin protein found in the periaxonal membrane of both the central and peripheral nervous systems myelin sheaths. It has a structure that is similar to members of the ig superfamily that participate in cell adhesion. (12 Dec 1998) |
