Ascorbic acid (vitamin C, VC) increases the secretion of mature collagen by promoting the activity of prolyl 4-hydroxylase subunit α 1 (P4HA1). To explore the mechanism involved, we investigated the role of N-linked glycosylation, which can regulate enzyme activity. P4HA1 has two glycosylation sites, Asn (N) 113 and N259. Our studies show that glycosylation of N259, but not N113, by STT3B and magnesium transporter 1 (MAGT1) is augmented by VC. N259 glycosylation on P4HA1 correlates with enhanced ...[more]
