Abstract:
:Saccharomyces cerevisiae Man9-alpha-mannosidase, responsible for trimming Man9GlcNAc2 in the endoplasmic reticulum to Man8GlcNAc2, the substrate for oligosaccharide elongation, has been purified to homogeneity from stabilized microsomal membranes without employing autolytic digestion. The activity was solubilized by the zwitterionic detergent, 3-[(3-cholamidopropyl)dimethyl ammonio]-1-propanesulphonate (CHAPS), whose presence was necessary for maximal activity. Purification included Q-Sepharose ion-exchange chromatography, preparative isoelectric focusing and HPLC gel filtration on TSK 3000 matrix. Overall purification from post-nuclear supernatants was estimated to be 110,000-fold with a 50% recovery of activity. The purified enzyme hydrolysed Man9GlcNAc1,2 from thyroglobulin or oligosaccharide-lipid, but not invertase Man9GlcNAc, Man1 alpha 2Man1 alpha OCH3 or p-nitrophenyl-alpha-D-mannopyranoside. Conversion of thyroglobulin Man9GlcNAc to Man8GlcNAc was linear with time and enzyme concentration, with an apparent Km of 0.2 mM and a specific activity of 220 IU/mg. Glc3Man9GlcNAc2 from oligosaccharide-lipid was as good a substrate as Man9GlcNAc, but the lipid-linked Man7GlcNAc2 isomer was hydrolysed at only 10% of this rate. Hydrolysis of defined isomers of IgM and bovine thyroglobulin Man6,7,8GlcNAc indicated that, for maximal alpha 1,2-mannosidase activity, only the alpha 1,2-linked terminal mannoses on the alpha 3 branch of the Man9GlcNAc precursor were dispensable. Isomers lacking the terminal alpha 1,2-linked mannose on the alpha 6 branch were hydrolysed at only approximately 10% of the maximal rate. The enzyme exhibited a pI of 5.3 and a pH optimum at 6.5. Sodium dodecyl sulphate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in the absence of reducing agents gave a single sharp band at 66 kDa, while in the presence of beta-mercaptoethanol equimolar amounts of two peptides, one of 44 kDa and one of 23 kDa, were obtained. Sizing on Sephacryl SF300, Superose 12 and TSK 3000 provided a holoenzyme mol. wt of 60-68 kDa, indicating that the isolated active form of the Man9-alpha-mannosidase was composed of one each of the sulphydryl-bonded dissimilar peptides. The enzyme bound to concanavalin A (ConA)-Sepharose and was eluted with alpha-methylmannoside, indicating the presence of high-mannose oligosaccharides. The Man9-alpha-mannosidase required low levels of Ca2+, which could be removed by EGTA. Activity was restored by Ca2+ or Zn2+, but not by Mg2+ or Mn2+.
