Reduced CETP glycosylation and activity in patients with homozygous B4GALT1 mutations [PDF]
The importance of protein glycosylation in regulating lipid metabolism is becoming increasingly apparent. We set out to further investigate this by studying the effects of defective glycosylation on plasma lipids in patients with B4GALT1-CDG, caused by a
