Term Name:	N-glycan processing
Synonyms:	glycoprotein trimming involved in glycoprotein maturation, N-linked glycoprotein maturation
Definition:	The conversion of N-linked glycan (N = nitrogen) structures from the initially transferred oligosaccharide to a mature form, by the actions of glycosidases and glycosyltransferases. The early processing steps are conserved and play roles in glycoprotein folding and trafficking.
