| Abstract | Plant glycoproteins contain substantial amounts of paucimannosidic N-glycans lacking terminal GlcNAc residues at their nonreducing ends. It has been proposed that this is due to the action of β-hexosaminidases during late stages of N-glycan processing or in the course of N-glycan turnover. We have now cloned the three putative β-hexosaminidase sequences present in the Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) genome. When heterologously expressed as soluble forms in Spodoptera frugiperda cells, the enzymes (termed HEXO1–3) could all hydrolyze the synthetic substrates p-nitrophenyl-2-acetamido-2-deoxy-β-d-glucopyranoside, p-nitrophenyl-2-acetamido-2-deoxy-β-d-galactopyranoside, 4-methylumbelliferyl-2-acetamido-2-deoxy-β-d-glucopyranoside, and 4-methylumbelliferyl-6-sulfo-2-acetamido-2-deoxy-β-d-glucopyranoside, albeit to a varying extent. HEXO1 to HEXO3 were further able to degrade pyridylaminated chitotriose, whereas pyridylaminated chitobiose was only cleaved by HEXO1. With N-glycan substrates, HEXO1 displayed a much higher specific activity than HEXO2 and HEXO3. Nevertheless, all three enzymes were capable of removing terminal GlcNAc residues from the α1,3- and α1,6-mannosyl branches of biantennary N-glycans without any strict branch preference. Subcellular localization studies with HEXO-fluorescent protein fusions transiently expressed in Nicotiana benthamiana plants showed that HEXO1 is a vacuolar protein. In contrast, HEXO2 and HEXO3 are mainly located at the plasma membrane. These results indicate that HEXO1 participates in N-glycan trimming in the vacuole, whereas HEXO2 and/or HEXO3 could be responsible for the processing of N-glycans present on secretory glycoproteins. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
