NCIt definition : Tumor suppressor candidate 3 (348 aa, 40 kDa) is encoded by the human TUSC3 gene.
This protein is involved in both the transport of magnesium ions and the N-glycosylation
of proteins.;
NCIt note : Tumor suppressor candidate 3 is an accessory component of the N-oligosaccharyl transferase
(OST) complex which catalyzes the transfer of a high mannose oligosaccharide from
a lipid-linked oligosaccharide donor to an asparagine residue within an Asn-X-Ser/Thr
consensus motif in nascent polypeptide chains. (UniProt);
