Biological process

glycoprotein anabolism, glycoprotein biosynthesis, glycoprotein formation, glycoprotein synthesis

The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of glycoproteins, a protein that contains covalently bound glycose (i.e. monosaccharide) residues; the glycose occurs most commonly as oligosaccharide or fairly small polysaccharide but occasionally as monosaccharide.
