Gene Description

Die2 (also called Alg10) is a multi-pass ER membrane glucosyltransferase of the ALG10 family (GT-C superfamily). It catalyses the final step of lipid-linked oligosaccharide assembly: it transfers glucose from dolichyl-phosphate-glucose in Ξ±1,2 linkage onto Glc2Man9GlcNAc2-PP-dolichol to give the complete Glc3Man9GlcNAc2-PP-dolichol donor (EC 2.4.1.256). The reaction takes place on the lumenal side of the ER membrane. The terminal Ξ±1,2-glucose is a key recognition element for the oligosaccharyltransferase, so only fully assembled LLO is used efficiently. DIE2 is not essential. alg10 mutants accumulate Glc2Man9GlcNAc2-PP-dolichol and hypoglycosylate secreted proteins, and they show synthetic growth defects with reduced OST activity (wbp1). DIE2 was first isolated as a gene that, in multicopy, raises expression of the inositol transporter gene ITR1 and of INO1, although its deletion does not abolish ITR1 expression and the link to its glycosylation activity is unknown.

Summary: is_active_in cytosol, RCA from the YeastPathways LLO pathway compartment. The compartment is wrong for Die2/Alg10. Die2 uses Dol-P-Glc to add the terminal glucose to Glc2Man9GlcNAc2-PP-Dol, which is the last lumenal LLO step.
Reason: Pathway-level compartment over-propagation. The Die2 reaction is lumenal.

MARK AS OVER ANNOTATED
Summary: cell periphery, HDA from the SWAp-Tag GFP library (Yofe et al. 2016), where 'cell periphery' is one of the visual categories. Die2 is a polytopic ER membrane enzyme. In yeast, cortical ER lies just under the plasma membrane and gives a peripheral signal, which most likely explains this call. No plasma-membrane or cell-surface function is known.
Reason: Most likely reflects the cortical ER. The ER membrane location is already captured.

Core Functions

Dol-P-Glc-dependent Ξ±1,2-glucosylation of Glc2Man9GlcNAc2-PP-dolichol. This adds the terminal glucose and completes the Glc3Man9GlcNAc2-PP-dolichol donor that OST prefers. It is the last ER-lumenal LLO step.

Suggested Questions for Experts

Q: Die2/Alg10 belongs to a GT-C family distinct from Alg6/Alg8. Does it use the same conserved-module catalytic aspartate as Alg6?

Suggested Experiments

Experiment: Determine a Die2/Alg10 structure with a Dol-P-Glc analogue and test candidate lumenal acidic residues by mutagenesis in the in vitro glucosylation assay.
