EDEM2 and OS-9 are required for ER-associated degradation of non-glycosylated sonic hedgehog. by Hsiang-Yun Tang, Chih-Hsiang Huang, Ya-Han Zhuang, John C Christianson, Xin Chen

“…In this study, we systematically study the function and substrate specificity of known mammalian ER lectins, including EDEM1/2/3, OS-9 and XTP-3B using the recently identified ERAD substrate sonic hedgehog (SHH), a soluble protein carrying a single N-glycan, as well as its nonglycosylated mutant N278A. Efficient ERAD of N278A requires the core processing complex of HRD1, SEL1L and p97, similar to the glycosylated SHH. …”
