gene GNPTG encoding the gamma-subunit of the enzyme, transient expression of wild-type and mutant gamma-subunits in HeLa cells | Homo sapiens |
Protein Variants | Comment | Organism |
---|---|---|
C142Y | naturally occuring mutation of the gamma-subunit that causes misfolding of the gamma-subunit, the misfolded protein is retained in the endoplasmic reticulum, where it forms aggregates, and fails to rescue the lysososmal targeting of lysosomal acid glycosidases | Homo sapiens |
G106S | naturally occuring mutation of the gamma-subunit that causes misfolding of the gamma-subunit, the misfolded protein is retained in the endoplasmic reticulum, where it forms aggregates, and fails to rescue the lysososmal targeting of lysosomal acid glycosidases | Homo sapiens |
G126S | naturally occuring mutation of the gamma-subunit that causes misfolding of the gamma-subunit, the misfolded protein is retained in the endoplasmic reticulum, where it forms aggregates, and fails to rescue the lysososmal targeting of lysosomal acid glycosidases | Homo sapiens |
T286M | naturally occuring mutation of the gamma-subunit that does not alter the gamma-subunit function, the mutant variant enters the Golgi like the wild-type enzyme | Homo sapiens |

General Information | Comment | Organism |

malfunction | the lysosomal storage disorder ML III gamma is caused by defects in the gamma subunit of UDP-GlcNAc:lysosomal enzyme N-acetylglucosamine-1-phosphotransferase. In patients with this disorder, most of the newly synthesized lysosomal enzymes are secreted rather than being sorted to lysosomes, resulting in increased levels of these enzymes in the plasma. Several missense mutations in GNPTG, the gene encoding the gamma subunit, are reported in mucolipidosis III gamma patients. gamma-Subunit deficient HeLa cells have greatly reduced levels of many lysosomal acid hydrolases compared with the parental HeLa cells and display a lysosomal storage phenotype | Homo sapiens |
physiological function | the enzyme tags lysosomal enzymes with the mannose 6-phosphate lysosomal targeting signal. The gamma-subunit is required for efficient phosphorylation of a subset of the lysosomal enzymes | Homo sapiens |
