“…Comparing our map to a previously published cryo-EM structure of the same complex (PDB ID: 6Q2J ) ( 16 ), we observed only minor differences, most notably extra density, consistent with the additional glycosylation at certain sites. RET ECD is heavily glycosylated, containing 11 glycosylation sites that influence the structure and function of RET ( 25 , 27 , 28 ). In our study, we used HEK293T cells to produce RET ECD bearing near-native glycans and, at this resolution, densities of the base glycans at all the glycosylation sites could be observed ( Fig.…”
