Endo-beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase, an enzyme involved in processing of free oligosaccharides in the cytosol.
Formation of oligosaccharides occurs both in the cytosol and in the lumen of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Luminal oligosaccharides are transported into the cytosol to ensure that they do not interfere with proper functioning of the glycan-dependent quality control machinery in the lumen of the ER for newly synthesized glycoproteins. Once in the cytosol, free oligosaccharides are catabolized,...
متن کاملThe Suppressor of fused gene encodes a novel PEST protein involved in Drosophila segment polarity establishment.
Suppressor of fused, Su(fu), was identified as a semi-dominant suppressor of the putative serine/threonine kinase encoded by the segment polarity gene fused in Drosophila melanogaster. The amorphic Su(fu) mutation is viable, shows a maternal effect and displays no phenotype by itself. Su(fu) mutations are often found associated to karmoisin (kar) mutations but two complementation groups can be ...
متن کاملN-glycan processing in ER quality control.
Glycosylation of asparagine residues in Asn-x-Ser/Thr motifs is a common covalent modification of proteins in the lumen of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). By substantially contributing to the overall hydrophilicity of the polypeptide, pre-assembled core glycans inhibit possible aggregation caused by the inevitable exposure of hydrophobic patches on the as yet unstructured chains. Thereafter, N-...
متن کاملInsights into transcriptional regulation of β-D-N-acetylhexosaminidase, an N-glycan-processing enzyme involved in ripening-associated fruit softening
Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) fruit ripening-specific N-glycan processing enzyme, β-D-N-acetylhexosaminidase (β-Hex), plays an important role in the ripening-associated fruit-softening process. However, the regulation of fruit ripening-specific expression of β-Hex is not well understood. We have identified and functionally characterized the fruit ripening-specific promoter of β-Hex and provided...
متن کاملIntraphagocytic Β-n-acetylglucosaminidase
The beta-N-acetylglucosaminidases of rabbit and human polymorphonuclear leukocytes and of rabbit alveolar macrophages have been studied in comparison with the beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase derived from a soil bacillus which had previously been shown to hydrolyze the group-specific polysaccharide of Group A streptococci. The phagocytic enzymes are lysosome associated and have an acid pH optimum. ...
