title:
Asialoglycoprotein
text:
If terminal sialic acid residues are removed from glycoproteins, the resulting proteins are known as asialoglycoproteins. In rats, the exposure of subterminal galactose or GalNAc residues may assist in receptor-mediated endocytosis of asialoglycoproteins by asialoglycoprotein receptors on Kuppfer cells. The human ortholog of this gene is non-functional, but hepatocyte asialoglycoprotein receptors are functional in both humans and rats.
