Glycoprotein biosynthesis in Succharomyces cerevisiae. Partial purification of the α-1,6-mannosyltransferase that initiates outer chain synthesis

Abstract: The alpha-1,6-mannosyltransferase (alpha-1,6-ManT) that initiates outer chain synthesis in Saccharomyces cerevisiae was partially purified along with an alpha-1,2-mannosyltransferase (alpha-1,2-ManT) that acts on alpha-methylmannoside. The enzymes were solubilized by extracting a 145,000 g pellet of S.cerevisiae mnn1 mutant with 1% Triton X-100. The extract was then passed through a concanavalin A-Sepharose column and the bound material was eluted with alpha-methylmannoside. After exhaustive dialysis, the frac… Show more

“…In S. cerevisiae, two tightly related a-1,6-mannosyltransferase homologues, Och1p and Hoc1p, have been identified and characterized. Och1p has been described as a critical protein in the extension of N-linked oligosaccharide chains, and catalyses the addition of the first a-1,6-linked mannose to the core oligosaccharide (Nakanishi-Shindo et al, 1993;Romero et al, 1994;Nakayama et al, 1997). In contrast, Hoc1p has been defined as a regulator protein belonging to the M-Pol II complex, and is involved in the last step of the long a-1,6-linked backbone extension (Neiman et al, 1997;Munro, 2001;Stolz & Munro, 2002).…”

“…In this model, the formation of the mannan outer chain is initiated by the Och1p protein, a type II membrane a-1,6-mannosyltransferase that defines an early Golgi compartment (Nakanishi-Shindo et al, 1993;Romero et al, 1994;Nakayama et al, 1997). Upon arrival in the Golgi, Och1p adds a single a-1,6-mannose to all N-glycan cores.…”

“…Subsequent in vitro assays using ER membrane preparations identified a catalytic activity that could generate the Man8B structure from Man 9 GlcNAc 2 , and this activity was shown to be sensitive to inhibition by dMNJ, kifunensine, and EDTA but not swainsonine or 1,4-dideoxy-1,4-imino-D-mannitol (12)(13)(14). Although the mammalian enzyme has not been purified, cloned, or biochemically characterized other than through in vitro assays in crude membrane preparations, an ER ␣-mannosidase activity producing the identical Man8B isomer in Saccharomyces cerevisiae has been purified, characterized, cloned, and expressed (15)(16)(17)(18)(19)(20)(21)(22)(23)(24)(25)(26). This yeast enzyme has many catalytic characteristics in common with the enzyme identified in mammalian tissues.…”

“…Most of the studies on mannosyltransferases concerning the synthesis of the cell wall mannoprotein of yeast have been done using Saccharomyces cerevisiae (32)(33)(34)(35)(36)(37)(38)(39)(40)(41)(42)(43)(44)(45)(46)(47), and some of the structural genes coding for yeast mannosyltransferases have been isolated. OCH1 encodes the initiating mannosyltransferase that adds the first ␣-1,6-linked mannose unit to a Man 8 GlcNAc 2 core oligosaccharide (38,42).…”
