Glycoprotein consist of oligosaccharides chains covalently attached to the polypeptide backbone. They are synthesized by two pathways; sugar nucleotide pathway and dolichol pathway. The degradation of glycoproteins occurs predominantly in the lysosomes through the ordered actions of lysosomal
The intracellular degradation of glycoproteins occurs predominantly in the lysosomes through the concerted action of proteases and glycosidases. Genetic defects in any of the enzymes cleaving the oligosaccharide side chains lead to specific diseases because of an excessive lysosomal accumulation of
The availability of specific antibodies and cDNA probes for lysosomal hydrolases has revealed unexpected heterogeneity among the human inherited lysosomal storage diseases. Using alpha-fucosidase and N-acetyl-beta-D-hexosaminidase deficiency variants as examples, it has been determined that a
