As the enzyme is protein substances, they are always being coded for by gene located at the genetic loci of the producing organism. The illustration given in this question shows that the enzyme mentioned is responsible for the addition of sugars to proteins in the muscle so that these proteins can perform there a role for signaling, and ATP production. The process of addition of sugars to the proteins is called glycosylation of protein. The defect in the loss of this function in the enzyme leads to dystroglycan.
