OSGEP
Description
OSGEP (Oligosaccharyltransferase-Like 1) is a gene that encodes a protein involved in the N-glycosylation process within the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). This process is crucial for proper protein folding and function. OSGEP, though primarily known for its role in glycosylation, also interacts with mitochondria, impacting their function and stability. Mutations in the OSGEP gene can lead to disruptions in these processes, potentially contributing to various diseases.
