The layout of this reaction may differ from that in the pathway view due to the constraints in pathway layout

The last glucose is added to the N-glycan precursor. This reaction occurs inside the ER lumen and uses Dol-P-Glc as the glucose donor. In yeast, this reaction is catalyzed by ALG10 (Burda P and Aebi M,1998); however, this gene is duplicated in primates (Ciccarelli FD et al, 2005; Table 1), leading to two homologues, ALG10A and ALG10B, and to date there is no clear evidence to say which of these two paralogues (or both) is responsible for catalyzing this reaction in humans. No Congenital Disorders of Glycosylations are known to be associated with either gene.
