CWH8/YGR036c of Saccharomyces cerevisiae has been identified as a dolichylpyrophosphate (Dol-PP) phosphatase that removes a phosphate from the Dol-PP generated by the oligosaccharyltransferase (OST), while it adds N-glycans to nascent glycoproteins in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Lack of CWH8 was proposed to interrupt the so called dolichol (Dol) cycle by trapping...
