TG also undergoes N-glycosylations in the ER at 17 glycosylation sites, so that 10% of its molecular weight is carbohydrate. These modifications enhance its stability and solubility. Indeed, the two monomers are linked not by covalent interactions but via numerous interactions allowed by these N-glycosylations. | TG also undergoes N-glycosylations in the ER at 17 <scene name='86/868183/Carbohydrated/1'>glycosylation sites</scene>, so that 10% of its molecular weight is carbohydrate.
