Aspartylglucosaminidase
Definition:
Example Sentences:
(1) Aspartylglucosaminuria (AGU) is a lysosomal storage disease due to mutations in the aspartylglucosaminidase (AGA) gene.

(3) We have used human liver as a source of material for the purification of aspartylglucosaminidase.
(4) We have recently reported that mutations in the aspartylglucosaminidase (AGA) locus are responsible for this disease.
(5) The altered metabolism in AGU results from a deficiency of the enzyme aspartylglucosaminidase (1-aspartamido-beta-N-acetylglucosamine amidohydrolase), which hydrolyses the asparagine to N-acetylglucosamine linkages of glycoproteins and glycopeptides.
(6) In vitro study of the initiation steps of catabolism of N-glycosylproteins in rat liver lysosomes has led to the evidence that the degradation of the carbohydrate chain is an ordered and bi-directional phenomenon: 1) The first one starts at the reducing terminus, immediately follows the degradation of the peptidic backbone by proteases and involves a serial reaction of 3 enzymes, respectively, 1) an alpha-L-fucosidase, 2) an aspartylglucosaminidase, and 3) an acidic 'oligosaccharide specific' endo-N-acetyl-beta-D-hexosaminidase, that we propose calling endo-chitobiase.
(7) Based on the character of the mutations, most of them are prone to affect the folding and stability and not to directly affect the active site of the aspartylglucosaminidase enzyme.
(8) The activity of aspartylglucosaminidase (AGA) was high in five cases, indicating an unaffected fetus.
(9) Human leucocyte aspartylglucosaminidase (AGA: 1-aspartamido-beta-N-acetylglucosamine amidohydrolase, EC 3.5.1.26) was purified to homogeneity by using affinity chromatography, gel filtration, chromatofocusing and reverse-phase h.p.l.c.
