Here we characterize TMTC3 as an ER, polytopic membrane protein with C-terminal luminal-facing TPRs, and an O-mannosyltransferase of E-cadherin. O-mannosylation of cadherins by TMTC3 affects cellular adherence, E-cadherin homophilic binding, and embryonic gastrulation, helping to explain the basis of a number of TMTC3-associated disease variants.

N-glycosylated sites in polytopic membrane proteins are usually localized to single extracytosolic (EC) loops containing more than 30 residues [Landolt-Marticorena and Reithmeier (1994) Biochem. J. 302, 253–260]. This may be due to a biosynthetic restriction whereby only a single loop of nascent polypeptide is available to the oligosaccharyl transferase in the lumen of the endoplasmic reticulum. To test this hypothesis, two types of N-glycosylation mutants were constructed using Band 3, a polytopic membrane protein that contains up to 14 transmembrane segments and a single endogenous site of N-glycosylation at Asn-642 in EC loop 4. In the first set of mutants, an additional N-glycosylation acceptor site (Asn-Xaa-Ser/Thr) was constructed by site-directed mutagenesis in EC loop 3, with or without retention of the endogenous site. In the second set of mutants, EC loop 4 was duplicated and inserted into EC loop 2, again with or without retention of the endogenous site. Cell-free translation experiments using reticulocyte lysates showed that microsomes were able to N-glycosylate multiple EC loops in these Band 3 mutants. The acceptor site in EC loop 3 was poorly N-glycosylated, probably due to the suboptimal size (25 residues) of this EC loop. The localization of N-glycosylation sites to single EC loops in multi-span membrane proteins is probably due to the absence of suitably positioned acceptor sites on multiple loops.
