Purification and characterization of UDP-N-acetylgalactosamine: globotriaosylceramide beta-3-N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase, a synthase of human blood group P antigen, from canine spleen.

A UDP-N-acetylgalactosamine:globotriaosylceramide beta-3-N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase which catalyzes the conversion of human blood group Pk antigen into P antigen has been purified over 18,000-fold in 4% yield from a Triton X-100 extract of canine spleen microsomes by affinity chromatography on UDP-hexanolamine-Sepharose and globotriaosylceramide acid-Sepharose. The purified enzyme migrat...

UDP-N-Acetylgalactosamine: globoside a-3-N-Acetylgalactos- aminyltransferase

A UDP-N-acetylgalactosamine:globoside a-3-N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase has been purified over 3500-fold in 4% yield from a Triton X-100 extract of canine spleen microsomes by affinity chromatography on globoside acid-agarose. Sodium dodecyl sulfate gel electrophoresis of the purified enzyme revealed two major bands with molecular weights of 66,000 and 56,000. Judging from the molecular wei...

cDNA cloning and expression of a family of UDP-N-acetyl-D-galactosamine:polypeptide N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase sequence homologs from Caenorhabditis elegans.

The initiation of mucin-type O-glycosylation is catalyzed by a family of UDP-GalNAc:polypeptide N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferases (ppGaNTase) (EC 2.4.1.41). By screening two mixed-stage Caenorhabditis elegans cDNA libraries, a total of 11 distinct sequence homologs of the ppGaNTase gene family were cloned, sequenced, and expressed as truncated recombinant proteins (gly-3, gly-4, gly-5a, gly-5b...

Functional characterization and expression analysis of members of the UDP-GalNAc:polypeptide N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase family from Drosophila melanogaster.

Here we report the cloning and functional characterization of eight members of the UDP-GalNAc:polypeptide N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase gene family from Drosophila melanogaster (polypeptide GalNAc transferase = pgant1-8). Full-length cDNAs were isolated from a Drosophila embryonic library based on homology to known ppGaNTases. Alignments with characterized mammalian isoforms revealed strong...

UDP-N-acetyl-D-galactosamine: polypeptide N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase-6 as a new immunohistochemical breast cancer marker.

Mucin O-glycosylation is characterized in cancer by aberrant expression of immature carbohydrate structures (Tn, T, and sialyl-Tn antigens). The UDP-N-acetyl-D-galactosamine: polypeptide N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferases (ppGalNAc-T) family enzymes regulate the initial steps of mucin O-glycosylation and could be responsible for the altered glycosylation observed in cancer. Considering that we ...
