摘要:In human fibroblasts, the recognition of lysosomal enzymes by cell surface receptors is mediated by mannose 6-phosphate residues located on oligosaccharides that can be cleaved by endo-beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase H. About half of these oligosaccharides, as isolated from beta-hexosaminidase and cathepsin D secreted by human skin fibroblasts, are anionic. Most of these are resistant to alkaline phosphatase. The resistance is due to alpha-N-acetylglucosamine residues linked to mannose 6-phosphate by a phosphodiester bond. The major phosphorylated oligosaccharides contain one and two and possibly three phosphate groups blocked by N-acetylglucosamine. Besides the blocked phosphate groups these oligosaccharides contain a common inner core consisting of Man alpha 1,6-(Man alpha 1,3)Man alpha 1,6(Man alpha 1,3)Man beta GlcNAc and either one or two alpha 1,2-linked mannose residues.
