Appropriate nucleotide sugars and highly specific Golgi-located glycosyltransferases are employed to synthesize the oligosaccharide chains of GAGs. The one enzyme, one linkage relationship appears to hold here,... 

Protein glycosylation occurs in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and Golgi compartments of the cell and involves a complex series of enzymatic reactions catalysed by membrane-bound glycosyltransferases and glyco-sidases. The two main types of protein glycosylation have very different biosynthetic pathways.

The biosynthesis of O-Iinked oligosaccharides follows a different scheme. In contrast with the dolichyl pyrophosphate-mediated synthesis of N-linked oligosaccharides, the glycosyltransferases necessary for the synthesis of O-linked oligosaccharides are located in the Golgi apparatus [9]. Monosaccharide residues are added sequentially to the growing oligosaccharide chain.
