Properties of N-acetylglucosamine 1-phosphotransferase from human lymphoblasts

Abstract: Human lymphoblast and fibroblast cell lines from a patient with I-cell disease and normal individuals were characterized with respect to certain properties of UDP-N-acetylglucosamine: lysosomal enzyme precursor N-acetylglucosamine phosphotransferase. The enzyme isolated from normal lymphoblast and fibroblast cell lines expressed similar kinetic properties, substrate specificities and subcellular localizations. Coincident with the severe reduction of N-acetylglucosamine phosphotransferase activity in both I-cel… Show more

“…Patients with the autosomal recessive disorder termed I-Cell Disease (ICD) have severely reduced levels of the enzyme N-acetylglucosamine 1-phosphotransferase, which forms the Man-6-P moiety on newly synthesized lysosomal enzymes (Hasilik et al, 1981;Reitman et al, 1981). Although this disorder results in severe cellular lysosomal enzyme deficiencies in many tissues, certain cell types in ICD patients, such as B lymphocytes, have nearly normal levels of lysosomal enzymes (Little et al, 1987;Okada et al, 1988;Tsuji et al, 1988). The targeting of newly synthesized lysosomal enzymes in an ICD B lymphoblastoid cell line occurs by a direct intracellular route (DiCioccio and Miller, 1991;Glickman and Kornfeld, 1993) and in at least one instance is dependent upon the selective recognition of amino acid sequences present in lysosomal enzymes but absent from related secretory proteins (Glickman and Kornfeld, 1993).…”

“…As a consequence of the I-cell defect, soluble lysosomal proteins are not phosphorylated and cannot be recognized by the Man-6-P receptor which would normally sort them into the lysosomal pathway. Previous studies have demonstrated the absence of the phosphotransferase in various cell types including lymphoid tissues of I-cell patients (Haubeck et al, 1985;Little et al, 1987;Waheed et al, 1982). However, lymphocytes as well as hepatocytes and Kuptfer cells are exceptional in I-cell disease patients in showing nearly normal levels of lysosomal enzymes (Glaser et al, 1974;Owada and Neufeld, 1982;Waheed et al, 1982), and it has been suggested that an alternative pathway exists for the delivery of proteins to lysosomes in these cell types.…”
