Project description:Disruption of Golgi alpha-mannosidase II activity can result in type II congenital dyserythropoietic anemia and induce lupus-like autoimmunity in mice. Here, we isolated a mutant human embryonic kidney (HEK) 293T cell line called Lec36, which displays sensitivity to ricin that lies between the parental HEK 293T cells, in which the secreted and membrane-expressed proteins are dominated by complex-type glycosylation, and 293S Lec1 cells, which produce only oligomannose-type N-linked glycans. Stem cell marker 19A was transiently expressed in the HEK 293T Lec36 cells and in parental HEK 293T cells with and without the potent Golgi alpha-mannosidase II inhibitor, swainsonine. Negative ion nano-electrospray ionization mass spectra of the 19A N-linked glycans from HEK 293T Lec36 and swainsonine-treated HEK 293T cells were qualitatively indistinguishable and, as shown by collision-induced dissociation spectra, were dominated by hybrid-type glycosylation. Nucleotide sequencing revealed mutations in each allele of MAN2A1, the gene encoding Golgi alpha-mannosidase II: a point mutation that mapped to the active site was found in one allele, and an in-frame deletion of 12 nucleotides was found in the other allele. Expression of the wild type but not the mutant MAN2A1 alleles in Lec36 cells restored processing of the 19A reporter glycoprotein to complex-type glycosylation. The Lec36 cell line will be useful for expressing therapeutic glycoproteins with hybrid-type glycans and as a sensitive host for detecting mutations in human MAN2A1 causing type II congenital dyserythropoietic anemia.

Project description:Human LAMAN (lysosomal a-mannosidase) was synthesized as a 120 kDa precursor in transfected COS cells [African-green-monkey kidney cells], which was partly secreted as a single-chain form and partly sorted to the lysosomes being subsequently cleaved into three peptides of 70, 40 and 15 kDa respectively. Both the secreted and the lysosomal forms contained endo H (endoglucosidase H)-resistant glycans, suggesting a common pathway through the trans-Golgi network. A fraction of LAMAN was retained intracellularly as a single-chain endo H-sensitive form, probably in the ER (endoplasmic reticulum). The inherited lack of LAMAN causes the autosomal recessive storage disease a-mannosidosis. To understand the biochemical consequences of the disease-causing mutations, 11 missense mutations and two in-frame deletions were introduced into human LAMAN cDNA by in vitro mutagenesis and the resulting proteins were expressed in COS cells. Some selected mutants were also expressed in Chinese-hamster ovary cells. T355P (Thr355Pro), P356R, W714R, R750W and L809P LAMANs as well as both deletion mutants were misfolded and arrested in the ER as inactive single-chain forms. Six of the mutants were transported to the lysosomes, either with less than 5% of normal specific activity (H72L, D196E/N and R220H LAMANs) or with more than 30% of normal specific activity (E402K LAMAN). F320L LAMAN resulted in much lower activity in Chinese-hamster ovary cells when compared with COS cells. Modelling into the three-dimensional structure revealed that the mutants with highly reduced specific activities contained substitutions of amino acids involved in the catalysis, either co-ordinating Zn2+ (His72 and Asp196), stabilizing the active-site nucleophile (Arg220) or positioning the active-site residue Asp319 (Phe320).

Project description:Mammalian protein N-linked glycosylation is critical for glycoprotein folding, quality control, trafficking, recognition, and function. N-linked glycans are synthesized from Glc3Man9GlcNAc2 precursors that are trimmed and modified in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and Golgi apparatus by glycoside hydrolases and glycosyltransferases. Endo-α-1,2-mannosidase (MANEA) is the sole endo-acting glycoside hydrolase involved in N-glycan trimming and is located within the Golgi, where it allows ER-escaped glycoproteins to bypass the classical N-glycosylation trimming pathway involving ER glucosidases I and II. There is considerable interest in the use of small molecules that disrupt N-linked glycosylation as therapeutic agents for diseases such as cancer and viral infection. Here we report the structure of the catalytic domain of human MANEA and complexes with substrate-derived inhibitors, which provide insight into dynamic loop movements that occur on substrate binding. We reveal structural features of the human enzyme that explain its substrate preference and the mechanistic basis for catalysis. These structures have inspired the development of new inhibitors that disrupt host protein N-glycan processing of viral glycans and reduce the infectivity of bovine viral diarrhea and dengue viruses in cellular models. These results may contribute to efforts aimed at developing broad-spectrum antiviral agents and help provide a more in-depth understanding of the biology of mammalian glycosylation.

Project description:Many proteins synthesized through the secretory pathway receive posttranslational modifications, including N-glycosylation. alpha-Mannosidase II (MII) is a key enzyme converting precursor high-mannose-type N-glycans to matured complex-type structures. Previous studies showed that MII-null mice synthesize complex-type N-glycans, indicating the presence of an alternative pathway. Because alpha-mannosidase IIx (MX) is a candidate enzyme for this pathway, we asked whether MX functions in N-glycan processing by generating MII/MX double-null mice. Some double-nulls died between embryonic days 15.5 and 18.5, but most survived until shortly after birth and died of respiratory failure, which represents a more severe phenotype than that seen in single-nulls for either gene. Structural analysis of N-glycans revealed that double-nulls completely lack complex-type N-glycans, demonstrating a critical role for at least one of these enzymes for effective N-glycan processing. Recombinant mouse MX and MII showed identical substrate specificities toward N-glycan substrates, suggesting that MX is an isozyme of MII. Thus, either MII or MX can biochemically compensate for the deficiency of the other in vivo, and either of two is required for late embryonic and early postnatal development.

Project description:α-1,2 mannosidases, key enzymes in N-glycosylation, are required for the formation of mature glycoproteins in eukaryotes. Aberrant regulation of α-1,2 mannosidases can result in cancer, although the underlying mechanisms are unclear. Here, we report the distinct roles of α-1,2 mannosidase subtypes (MAN1A, MAN1B, ERMAN1, MAN1C) in the formation of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Clinicopathological analyses revealed that the clinical stage, tumor size, α-fetoprotein level, and invasion status were positively correlated with the expression levels of MAN1A1, MAN1B1, and MAN1A2. In contrast, the expression of MAN1C1 was decreased as early as stage I of HCC. Survival analyses showed that high MAN1A1, MAN1A2, and MAN1B1 expression levels combined with low MAN1C1 expression levels were significantly correlated with shorter overall survival rates. Functionally, the overexpression of MAN1A1 promoted proliferation, migration, and transformation as well as in vivo migration in zebrafish. Conversely, overexpression of MAN1C1 reduced the migration ability both in vitro and in vivo, decreased the colony formation ability, and shortened the S phase of the cell cycle. Furthermore, the expression of genes involved in cell cycle/proliferation and migration was increased in MAN1A1-overexpressing cells but decreased in MAN1C1-overexpressing cells. MAN1A1 activated the expression of key regulators of the unfolded protein response (UPR), while treatment with endoplasmic reticulum stress inhibitors blocked the expression of MAN1A1-activated genes. Using the MAN1A1 liver-specific overexpression zebrafish model, we observed steatosis and inflammation at earlier stages and HCC formation at a later stage accompanied by the increased expression of the UPR modulator binding immunoglobulin protein (BiP). These data suggest that the up-regulation of MAN1A1 activates the UPR and might initiate metastasis. Conclusion: MAN1A1 represents a novel oncogene while MAN1C1 plays a role in tumor suppression in hepatocarcinogenesis. (Hepatology Communications 2017;1:230-247).

Project description:INTRODUCTION:Long-term outcome data provide important insights into the clinical utility of enzyme replacement therapies. Such data are presented for velmanase alfa in the treatment of alpha-mannosidosis (AM). METHODS:Patient data (n = 33; 14 adults, 19 paediatric) from the clinical development programme for velmanase alfa were integrated in this prospectively-designed analysis of long-term efficacy and safety. Patients who participated in the phase I/II or phase III trials and were continuing to receive treatment after completion of the trials were invited to participate in a comprehensive evaluation visit to assess long-term outcomes. Primary endpoints were changes in serum oligosaccharide and the 3-minute stair climb test (3MSCT). RESULTS:Mean (SD) treatment exposure was 29.3 (15.2) months. Serum oligosaccharide levels were significantly reduced in the overall population at 12 months (mean change: -72.7%, P < 0.001) and remained statistically significant at last observation (-62.8%, P < 0.001). A mean improvement of +9.3% in 3MSCT was observed at 12 months (P = 0.013), which also remained statistically significant at last observation (+13.8%, P = 0.004), with a more pronounced improvement detected in the paediatric subgroup. No treatment-emergent adverse events were reported leading to permanent treatment discontinuation. CONCLUSIONS:Patients treated with velmanase alfa experienced improvements in biochemical and functional measures that were maintained for up to 4 years. Long term follow-up is important and further supports the use of velmanase alfa as an effective and well-tolerated treatment for AM. Based on the currently available data set, no baseline characteristic can be predictive of treatment outcome. Early treatment during paediatric age showed better outcome in functional endpoints.

Project description:In humans and rodents, the lysosomal catabolism of core Man(3)GlcNAc(2) N-glycan structures is catalyzed by the concerted action of several exoglycosidases, including a broad specificity lysosomal alpha-mannosidase (LysMan), core-specific alpha1,6-mannosidase, beta-mannosidase, and cleavage at the reducing terminus by a di-N-acetylchitobiase. We describe here the first cloning, expression, purification, and characterization of a novel human glycosylhydrolase family 38 alpha-mannosidase with catalytic characteristics similar to those established previously for the core-specific alpha1,6-mannosidase (acidic pH optimum, inhibition by swainsonine and 1,4-dideoxy-1,4-imino-d-mannitol, and stimulation by Co(2+) and Zn(2+)). Substrate specificity studies comparing the novel human alpha-mannosidase with human LysMan revealed that the former enzyme efficiently cleaved only the alpha1-6mannose residue from Man(3)GlcNAc but not Man(3)GlcNAc(2) or other larger high mannose oligosaccharides, indicating a requirement for chitobiase action before alpha1,6-mannosidase activity. In contrast, LysMan cleaved all of the alpha-linked mannose residues from high mannose oligosaccharides except the core alpha1-6mannose residue. alpha1,6-Mannosidase transcripts were ubiquitously expressed in human tissues, and expressed sequence tag searches identified homologous sequences in murine, porcine, and canine databases. No expressed sequence tags were identified for bovine alpha1,6-mannosidase, despite the identification of two sequence homologs in the bovine genome. The lack of conservation in 5'-flanking sequences for the bovine alpha1,6-mannosidase genes may lead to defective transcription similar to transcription defects in the bovine chitobiase gene. These results suggest that the chitobiase and alpha1,6-mannosidase function in tandem for mammalian lysosomal N-glycan catabolism.

Project description:1. alpha-d-Mannosidase from rat epididymis was purified 300-fold. beta-N-Acetyl-glucosaminidase and beta-galactosidase were removed from the preparation by treatment with pyridine. Zn(2+) was added during the purification to stabilize the alpha-mannosidase. 2. Mammalian alpha-mannosidase is most stable at pH6. At lower pH values it undergoes reversible spontaneous inactivation. The enzyme is also subject to irreversible inactivation, which is delayed by the addition of albumin. 3. Reversible inactivation of alpha-mannosidase is accelerated by EDTA and reversed or prevented by Zn(2+). Other cations, such as Co(2+), Cd(2+) and Cu(2+), accelerate inactivation and the action of a toxic cation can be prevented by Zn(2+) or by EDTA in suitable concentration. 4. The enzyme is stabilized by substrate and neither Zn(2+), EDTA nor a toxic cation has more than a small effect in the assay of an untreated preparation. The addition of Zn(2+) is necessary, however, for a constant rate of hydrolysis during prolonged incubation of the enzyme with substrate. In an EDTA-treated preparation, Zn(2+) reactivates the enzyme during the assay. 5. Evidence is presented that alpha-mannosidase is a dissociable Zn(2+)-protein complex, in which Zn(2+) is essential for enzyme activity.

Project description:Antiserum was raised against purified human liver alpha-D-mannosidase B. It precipitated alpha-mannosidases A and B from solution, demonstrating the close structural resemblance of these 2 forms of acidic alpha-mannosidase activity. A continuous enzymically active precipitin line with no spurs was obtained when alpha-mannosidase A and B were placed in adjacent wells on Ouchterlony double-diffusion plates. The antiserum precipitated acidic but not neutral alpha-mannosidase from an extract of human liver, confirming that the acidic and neutral activities are not closely related. Acidic activity was also precipitated from extracts of human brain, kidney and leucocytes by the antiserum. However, it did not cross-react with bovine acidic alpha-mannosidase activity or with the activity in human plasma that has an optimum pH of 5.5. The two acidic forms of human liver alpha-mannosidase, A and B, are immunologically identical but distinct from neutral alpha-mannosidase and that activity with an optimum pH of 5.5.

Project description:1. The activities of lysosomal enzymes in the cortexes and medullas and the principal subcellular fractions of rat kidney were measured. 2. A method is described for the isolation of rat-kidney lysosomes and a detailed analysis of the enzymic composition of the lysosomes is reported. Enzyme analysis of the other principal subcellular fractions is included for comparison. 3. Studies of the distribution of alpha-glucosidase showed that the lysosomal fraction contained only 10% of the total enzyme activity. The microsomal fraction contained most of the particulate alpha-glucosidase. Lysozyme was concentrated mainly in the lysosomal fraction with only small amounts present in the microsomal fraction. Lysosomal alpha-glucosidase had optimum pH5 whereas the microsomal form had optimum pH6. Both lysosomal and microsomal lysozyme had optimum pH6.2. 4. The stability of lysosomal suspensions was studied. Incubation at 37 degrees and pH7 resulted in first an increased availability of enzymes without parallel release of enzyme. This was followed by a second stage during which the availability of enzymes was closely related to the release of enzymes. These changes were closely paralleled by changes in light-scattering properties of lysosomes. 5. The latent nature of the alpha-glucosidase and lysozyme of intact kidney lysosomes was demonstrated by their graded and parallel release with other typical lysosomal enzymes. 6. Isolated lysosomes were unstable at pH values lower than 5, most stable at pH6-7 and less stable at pH 8-9. Lysosomes were not disrupted when the osmolarity of the suspending medium was decreased from 0.6m to 0.25m. 7. The discussion compares the properties and composition of kidney lysosomes, liver lysosomes and the granules of macrophages. 8. The possible origin of the lysozyme in kidney lysosomes by reabsorption of the lysozyme in blood is discussed.
