Catabolism of heparan sulfate proteoglycans in Drosophila cell lines.
We have studied intracellular catabolism of heparan sulfate proteoglycans (HSPGs) in Drosophila cell lines, Kc and S2, by a series of pulse-chase experiments using [(35)S]sulfate as a precursor in metabolic labeling experiments. HSPGs in culture medium and cell layer were separately purified by serial chromatographic procedures using Q-Sepharose and Superose 6 for characterization. Analysis of ...
متن کاملEstablishment and mitotic characterization of new Drosophila acentriolar cell lines from DSas-4 mutant
In animal cells the centrosome is commonly viewed as the main cellular structure driving microtubule (MT) assembly into the mitotic spindle apparatus. However, additional pathways, such as those mediated by chromatin and augmin, are involved in the establishment of functional spindles. The molecular mechanisms involved in these pathways remain poorly understood, mostly due to limitations inhere...
متن کاملUndersulfated heparan sulfate in a Chinese hamster ovary cell mutant defective in heparan sulfate N-sulfotransferase.
Heparan sulfate N-sulfotransferase catalyzes the transfer of sulfate groups from adenosine 3'-phosphate, 5'-phosphosulfate to the free amino groups of glucosamine residues in heparan sulfate. We have identified a Chinese hamster ovary cell mutant, designated pgsE-606, which is 3-5-fold defective in N-sulfotransferase activity. The residual enzyme activity is indistinguishable from the wild-type...
متن کاملDrosophila syndecan: conservation of a cell-surface heparan sulfate proteoglycan.
In mammals, cell-surface heparan sulfate is required for the action of basic fibroblast growth factor, fibronectin, antithrombin III, as well as other effectors. The syndecans, a gene family of four transmembrane proteoglycans that participates in these interactions, are the major source of this heparan sulfate. Based on the conserved transmembrane and cytoplasmic domains of the mammalian synde...
متن کاملHeparan sulfate biosynthesis enzymes EXT1 and EXT2 affect NDST1 expression and heparan sulfate sulfation.
Heparan sulfate (HS) proteoglycans influence embryonic development and adult physiology through interactions with protein ligands. The interactions depend on HS structure, which is determined largely during biosynthesis by Golgi enzymes. How biosynthesis is regulated is more or less unknown. During polymerization of the HS chain, carried out by a complex of the exostosin proteins EXT1 and EXT2,...
