Function Summary
- Entrez Summary: N/A
- UniProt Summary: Essential subunit 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. Required for the assembly of both SST3A- and SS3B-containing OST complexes. Required for efficient N-glycosylation. Loss of the DAD1 protein triggers apoptosis. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:22467853, ECO:0000305}.
