Subcellular Location | Membrane |
Function | May contribute to rigidity of the membrane and cation binding. The existence of membrane glycoprotein in wall-less Thermoplasma acidophilum may provide a protective coat for plama membrane. |
Glycosylation Status |
Glycosylation Type | N(Asn)- linked |
Technique(s) used for Glycosylation Detection | PAS staining and ConA-Sepharose column chromatography, and deglycosylation |
