N-glycan LLO assembly I — cytoplasmic face (to Man5GlcNAc2-PP-dolichol); DPAGT1/ALG13/ALG14/ALG1/ALG2/ALG11

N-linked glycosylation begins with the stepwise assembly of the dolichol-linked oligosaccharide (LLO, or dolichol-PP-oligosaccharide) on the cytoplasmic face of the endoplasmic-reticulum membrane. Using nucleotide-sugar donors from the cytosol, the pathway builds a Man5GlcNAc2 glycan on the polyprenol carrier dolichyl phosphate before the intermediate is flipped into the ER lumen. DPAGT1 (GlcNAc-1-phosphotransferase, the first and committed step, and the tunicamycin target) transfers GlcNAc-1-P from UDP-GlcNAc onto dolichyl phosphate to give GlcNAc-PP-dolichol; the bipartite UDP-GlcNAc transferase ALG13/ALG14 (ALG13 catalytic, ALG14 membrane-anchoring) adds the second GlcNAc to form the chitobiose core GlcNAc2-PP-dolichol; ALG1 (beta-1,4-mannosyltransferase) adds the first mannose; the bifunctional ALG2 (alpha-1,3 and alpha-1,6 mannosyltransferase) adds the second and third mannoses to give Man3GlcNAc2-PP-dolichol; and ALG11 (alpha-1,2-mannosyltransferase) adds the fourth and fifth mannoses to complete Man5GlcNAc2-PP-dolichol, the final cytoplasmic-face intermediate (subsequently flipped to the lumen by the RFT1 flippase, and extended by the lumenal ALG enzymes). All the mannose-addition steps in this segment use GDP-mannose. Inherited defects in each step cause a congenital disorder of glycosylation (CDG type I): DPAGT1-CDG (and a congenital myasthenic syndrome), ALG13-CDG (an X-linked developmental/epileptic encephalopathy), ALG14-CDG (congenital myasthenic syndrome), ALG1-CDG, ALG2-CDG (and CMS14) and ALG11-CDG.

Cytoplasmic-face segment of dolichol-linked oligosaccharide (LLO) assembly, grounded to the human enzymes DPAGT1 (UniProtKB:Q9H3H5, GO:0003975, EC 2.7.8.15), the ALG13/ALG14 UDP-GlcNAc transferase (Q9NP73 GO:0004577 catalytic + Q96F25 GO:0043495 anchor, EC 2.4.1.141), ALG1 (Q9BT22, GO:0004578, EC 2.4.1.142), ALG2 (Q9H553, GO:0004378/GO:0102704, EC 2.4.1.132/257) and ALG11 (Q2TAA5, GO:0004377, EC 2.4.1.131). GO molecular-function/location terms were taken from the completed human gene reviews and verified against the local go.db; Reactome reaction ids/titles were verified against the local reactome cache. Each step uses a PANTHER family selector with the human enzyme as representative so the module generalises across orthologs/paralogs. The ALG13/ALG14 step is modelled as a PROTEIN_COMPLEX node (catalytic + membrane-anchoring subunits; ALG14's core function is the non-catalytic adaptor activity GO:0043495, not a transferase term). Sugar donors are cytosolic UDP-GlcNAc (DPAGT1, ALG13/14) and GDP-mannose (ALG1, ALG2, ALG11). Downstream, Man5GlcNAc2-PP-Dol is flipped into the ER lumen by the RFT1 flippase (already reviewed) and extended by the lumenal ALG enzymes (ALG3, ALG9, ALG12, ALG6, ALG8, ALG10 — a separate module), then transferred to protein by the oligosaccharyltransferase. Dolichol-phosphate and the Dol-P-Man/Dol-P-Glc donors are supplied by a further module (DOLK, SRD5A3, DPM1/2/3, MPDU1, ALG5). Disorders: each step's loss is a CDG type I (DPAGT1-, ALG13-, ALG14-, ALG1-, ALG2-, ALG11-CDG), several also presenting as congenital myasthenic syndromes. ALIGN (YeastPathways project, 2026-10): S. cerevisiae (ALG7 P07286, ALG13 P53178, ALG14 P38242, ALG1 P16661, ALG2 P43636, ALG11 P53954) and S. pombe (alg7 P42881, alg13 O14190, alg14 O14199, alg1 O13933, alg2 Q96WW6, alg11 O74878) exemplars were added to every role; the ALG names are yeast-derived, and the YeastCyc gene assignments in GLUCOSE-MANNOSYL-CHITO-DOLICHOL are correct. The ALG13 role now lists two PANTHER families because S. cerevisiae ALG13 is placed in PTHR47043 while human and S. pombe ALG13 are in PTHR12867. Connections were converted to PRECEDES. GO-CAM disagreements: the SGD model places every ER-membrane enzyme in cytosol, gives ALG11 only the parent GO:0000026 and types the ALG2 alpha-1,6 step with GO:0033164; the PomBase model agrees with the step order and adds causal links through the rft1 flippase to the lumenal module.
