N-linked glycans are crucial for the folding, sorting, and degradation of glycoproteins, playing a vital role in maintaining cellular homeostasis. Recent advances have shed light on the mechanisms by which glycan-related proteins respond to different folding states of glycoproteins.
About half of all newly synthesized proteins have N-linked glycans. These glycans play pivotal roles in controlling the folding, sorting, and degradation of glycoproteins via several glycan-related proteins. The glycan-mediated protein quality control system is important for cellular homeostasis. In this review, we summarize recent advances in our understanding of the system and discuss structural insights from chemical and biological perspectives. In particular, we focus on the mechanisms by which these mediators respond to several folding states of glycoproteins.
