(18) (2) There are two tRNAThr species having anticodons UGU and AGU; the first positions of these anticodons are unmodified.
(19) 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.
(20) Two base changes were found to be common to all three Finnish AGU patients, a G482----A transition that results in an Arg161----Gln substitution and a G488----C transversion that causes Cys163----Ser.
