How does an inhibitor of n-acetylglucosamine phosphotransferase affect lysosomal protein sorting?

Biology

nalin [4]3 years ago

<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

Lysosomal proteins are secreted from the cell

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>
  • N-acetylglucosamine phosphotransferase is a golgi-localized enzyme that catalyzes the first step in the synthesis of the mannose 6-phosphate recognition marker on lysosomal acid hydrolases.
  • <em><u>The loss of function of this enzyme results in impaired lysosomal targeting of the acid hydrolases and decreased lysosomal degradatio</u></em>n.
  • Mannose 6-phosphate receptor sorts lysosomal hydrolases in trans Golgi Network; the first step is the recognition of lysosomal hydrolyses in the Golgi apparatus by  N-acetylglucosamine phosphotransferase.
  • The enzyme has both the catalytic sites which binds both high mannose N-linked oligosaccharides and UDP-GlcNAc, and recognition site that binds to a signal patch present only on the surface of lysosomal hydrolases.

What are some negative effects humans have on wetlands?
saw5 [17]
Wetlands are often drained in many regions to facilitate human use of the land. This happens a lot within the Pairie Provinces of Canada, where wetlands are drained to make way for agriculture. Wetlands are also often drained so as to use the land for building houses. Humans have also altered the flow of rivers through constructing dams and over-abstracting water. In many regions, depressions that would have been flooded in the past to form wetlands are no longer saturated. Wetlands also act as a 'sink' for many pollutants, and much of the pollution released into upstream rivers by humans may settle into the relatively stagnant waters of wetlands, to be absorbed into the sediments, where often it acts as a chronic pollutant, negatively effecting the aquatic ecosystem and water quality downstream.
