Abstract: | The sugar chains of microsomal and lysosomal β-glucuronidases of rat liver were studied by endo-β-N-acetylglucosaminidase H digestion and by hydrazinolysis. Only a part of the oligosaccharides released from microsomal β-glucuronidase was an acidic component. The acidic component was not hydrolyzed by sialidase and by calf intestinal and Escherichia coli alkaline phosphatases, but was converted to a neutral component by phosphatase digestion after mild acid treatment indicating the presence of a phosphodiester group. The neutral oligosaccharide portion of microsomal enzyme was a mixture of five high mannose-type sugar chains: (Manα1 → 2)0~4 Manα1 → 6(Manα1 → 3)Manα1 → 6(Manα1 → 3)Manβ1 → 4GlcNAcβ1 → 4GlcNAc]. In contrast, lysosomal enzyme contains only Manα1 → 6 (Manα1 → 3) Manα1 → 6(Manα1 → 3) Manβ1 → 4GlcNAcβ1 → 4GlcNAc. The result indicates that removal of α1 → 2-linked mannosyl residues from (Manα1 → 2)4Manα1 → 6(Manα1 → 3)Manα1 → 6(Manα1 → 3)Manβ1 → 4GlcNAcβ1 → 4GlcNAc → Asn] starts already in the endoplasmic reticulum of rat liver. |
