Abstract Asparagine-linked glycosylation protein 1 homolog (ALG1), a β-1,4-mannosyltransferase, catalyzes the initial committed step of the N-glycosylation pathway. While its role in congenital glycosylation disorders is well established, the contribution of ALG1 to bladder cancer (BC) progression, particularly its impact on the tumor immune microenvironment, remains poorly understood. In this multi-omics study, we delineated the pathological significance and molecular mechanisms of ALG1 in BC.
