Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study focuses on the structure-function relationship of N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase (GnTII) which is essential for complex-type N-glycan biosynthesis. We obtained recombinant GnTII enzymes from human and Bombyx mori using Escherichia coli and silkworm as hosts, and the enzymes expressed in silkworm showed higher activity than those in E. coli. The substrate specificity and enzymatic activity of B. mori GnTII were almost identical to those of human GnTII. Although B. mori GnTII was more highly N-glycosylated than human GnTII, enzymatic cleavage of N-glycans did not affect their activity and thermostability, indicating that N-glycans which were attached to the enzymes are not important for their activity and stability.
