| Term Name: | protein O-linked glycosylation via mannose |
|---|---|
| Synonyms: | protein amino acid O-linked mannosylation, protein O-linked mannosylation |
| Definition: | A glycoprotein biosynthetic process starting with the covalent linkage of a mannose via an alpha-glycosidic bond to the oxygen atom of a serine or threonine side chain in a protein, which can be further elongated with the sequential addition of sugar units resulting in the formation of a protein O-linked glycan. |
