Is the human collagen beta ( 1-O ) galactosyltransferase , GLT25D1 , a soluble endoplasmic reticulum localized protein?
Taken together our data indicate that galactosylation of collagenous proteins by the soluble GLT25D1 occurs in the early secretory pathway.
The results demonstrate that female rats do not develop IR upon GlcN treatment except after ovariectomy. Those who take GlcN after menopause or bilateral oophorectomy should watch their blood glucose level closely, especially after meals.
