Term Name: glycoprotein catabolic process
Synonyms: glycoprotein breakdown, glycoprotein catabolism, glycoprotein degradation
Definition: The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the breakdown of a glycoprotein, a protein that contains covalently bound glycose (i.e. monosaccharide) residues; the glycose occurs most commonly as oligosaccharide or fairly small polysaccharide but occasionally as monosaccharide.
