Thermostable α-galactosidase fromBacillus stearothermophilusNUB3621: cloning, sequencing and characterization [PDF]
An alpha-galactosidase gene from the thermophilic bacterium Bacillus stearothermophilus NUB3621 was cloned, sequenced, expressed in Escherichia coli and the recombinant protein was purified. The Bacillus enzyme, designated AgaN, is similar to alpha-galactosidases of family 36 in the classification of glycosyl hydrolases.

α‐Galactosidase‐A Loaded‐Nanoliposomes with Enhanced Enzymatic Activity and Intracellular Penetration [PDF]
Lysosomal storage disorders (LSD) are caused by lysosomal dysfunction usually as a consequence of deficiency of a single enzyme required for the metabolism of macromolecules, such as lipids, glycoproteins, and mucopolysaccharides.

Stability of native and modified α-galactosidase of Cladosporium cladosporioides [PDF]
By modifying carbohydrate component of glycoproteins it is possible to elucidate its role in manifestation of structural and functional properties of the enzyme. The comparison of activity and stability of the native and modified by oxidation with sodium

The validation of pharmacogenetics for the identification of Fabry patients to be treated with migalastat [PDF]
PURPOSE: Fabry disease is an X-linked lysosomal storage disorder caused by mutations in the α-galactosidase A gene. Migalastat, a pharmacological chaperone, binds to specific mutant forms of α-galactosidase A to restore lysosomal activity.

Dysregulated DNA methylation in the pathogenesis of Fabry disease
Fabry disease is an X-linked lysosomal storage disorder caused by a deficiency of α-galactosidase A and subsequent accumulation of glycosphingolipids with terminal α-D-galactosyl residues.

Expression of β-galactosidase inRhizobium japonicum [PDF]
The plasmid pGC91.14 was used to introduce via conjugation the Escherichia coli lac operon into fast-growing and slow-growing strains of Rhizobium japonicum. Exconjugants now expressed higher levels of β-galactosidase activity which was still inducible by isopropyl-β-d-thiogalactoside (IPTG).

Transcriptional analysis of the β-galactosidase gene (pbg) inClostridium perfringens [PDF]
The mode of expression of the beta-galactosidase gene (pbg) of Clostridium perfringens was examined. The pbg gene was transcribed on a single 3.7-kb mRNA. The transcript contained a message for ORF54, located upstream of the pbg gene in the chromosome, indicating that ORF54 and the pbg gene comprise one operon (pbg operon). Expression of the pbg operon

Discovery of a Potent α ‑ Galactosidase Inhibitor by in Situ Analysis of a Library of Pyrrolizidine − (Thio)urea Hybrid Molecules Generated via Click Chemistry [PDF]
The parallel synthesis of a 26-membered-library of aromatic/aliphatic-(thio)urea-linked pyrrolizidines followed by in situ biological evaluation toward α -galactosidases has been carried out.

The Continuous Challenge of Diagnosing patients with Fabry disease in Argentina : Genotype, Experiences, Anecdotes, and New Learnings [PDF]
The lysosomal storage disorder Fabry disease (FD) is caused by pathogenic mutations in the α-galactosidase A gene, localized in X chromosome. Deficient enzymatic activity of the product of this gene, the lysosomal hydrolase α-galactosidase A, leads to ...

Anaerobic expression of thegyrAgene demonstrated by β-galactosidase activity ingyrA::Mu-lacfusion derivatives ofEscherichia coli [PDF]
E. coli C600Δ lac was infected with a Mu- lac defective phage. Lysogens resistant to ampicillin (25 µg/ml) and nalidixic acid (20 µg/ml) were unable to grow anaerobically and insensitive to nalidixic acid (150 µg/ml), indicating formation of gyrA ::Mu- lac fusions.
