High-mannose oligosaccharides present on the surface of these glycoproteins act to mark their transient nature, since they are eventually recognised by the mannose receptor and removed from the circulation.
Os oligosacáridos ricos en manosa presentes na superfice destas glicoproteínas actúan marcando a súa natureza transitoria, polo que son finalmente recoñecidas polo receptor da manosa e eliminadas da circulación.
