Proteome and Glycoproteome Analyses Reveal Regulation of Protein Glycosylation Site-Specific Occupancy and Lysosomal Hydrolase Maturation by N-Glycan-Dependent ER-Quality Control

N-Glycan-dependent endoplasmic reticulum quality control (ERQC) primarily mediates protein folding, which determines the fate of the polypeptide. Monoglucose residues on N-glycans determine whether the nascent N-glycosylated proteins enter into and escape from the calnexin (CANX)/calreticulin (CALR) cycle, which is a central system of the ERQC. To reveal the impact of ERQC on glycosylation and protein fate, we performed comprehensive quantitative proteomic and glycoproteomic analyses using cells defective in N-glycan-dependent ERQC. Deficiency of MOGS encoding the ER α-glucosidase I, CANX, or/and CALR broadly affected protein expression and glycosylation…e demonstrated that lysosomal hydrolases were not correctly modified with mannose-6-phosphates on the N-glycans and were directly secreted to the culture medium in N-glycan-dependent ERQC mutant cells.
