An illustration of the partially formed GRP94 protein (pink) as it is generated by the ribosome (white). The chaperone proteins FKBP11 (purple) and CCDC134 (blue) shield the nascent protein to prevent the oligosaccharyl transferase complex (green) from adding too many sugar molecules, or hyperglycosylation (Credit: Robert Keenan)
