Cyclization reaction catalyzed by glycogen debranching enzyme (EC 2.4.1.25/EC 3.2.1.33) and its potential for cycloamylose production.
Glycogen debranching enzyme (GDE) has 4-alpha-glucanotransferase and amylo-1,6-glucosidase activities in the single polypeptide chain. We analyzed the detailed action profile of GDE from Saccharomyces cerevisiae on amylose and tested whether GDE catalyzes cyclization of amylose. GDE treatment resulted in a rapid reduction of absorbance of iodine-amylose complex and the accumulation of a product...
متن کاملLeukocyte Debranching Enzyme in Glycogen Storage
In recent years the classification of glycogen storage disease has been based on the demonstration of a specific enzyme defect for each type (14). Type I, glycogenosis or von Gierke's disease, results from the lack of glucose 6-phosphatase (1). Type II, or Pompe's disease, is characterized clinically by the severity of the disease with cardiovascular complications causing death usually before t...
متن کاملCrystal structure of glycogen debranching enzyme and insights into its catalysis and disease-causing mutations
Glycogen is a branched glucose polymer and serves as an important energy store. Its debranching is a critical step in its mobilization. In animals and fungi, the 170 kDa glycogen debranching enzyme (GDE) catalyses this reaction. GDE deficiencies in humans are associated with severe diseases collectively termed glycogen storage disease type III (GSDIII). We report crystal structures of GDE and i...
متن کاملMono-(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate targets glycogen debranching enzyme and affects glycogen metabolism in rat testis.
Phthalate esters are commonly used plasticizers; however, some are suspected to cause reproductive toxicity. Administration of high doses of di-(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) induces germ cell death in male rodents. Mono-(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (MEHP), a hydrolyzed metabolite of DEHP, appears to be responsible for this testicular toxicity; however, the underlying mechanism of this chemical's ...
متن کاملThe Saccharomyces cerevisiae fermentation stress response protein Igd1p/Yfr017p regulates glycogen levels by inhibiting the glycogen debranching enzyme.
Wine fermentation imposes a number of stresses on Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and wine yeasts respond to this harsh environment by altering their transcriptional profile (Marks et al., 2008). We have labeled this change in gene expression patterns the fermentation stress response (FSR). An important component of the FSR is the increased expression of 62 genes for which no function has been identi...
