Overview

Oligosaccharyltransferase complex non-catalytic subunit (OSTC) is a membrane protein that functions as a subunit of the STT3A-containing oligosaccharyltransferase (OST-A) complex in the endoplasmic reticulum. It acts as an adapter that anchors the OST-A complex to the protein-conducting channel (Sec61 complex), facilitating the co-translational transfer of glycans to asparagine residues in nascent polypeptides—an essential step in protein N-glycosylation. OSTC does not possess catalytic activity itself but is critical for proper assembly and localization of the OST-A complex, and its dysfunction can contribute to specific congenital disorders of glycosylation and potentially influence tumor cell biology through altered glycosylation patterns[1][3][4].
