Two Dermatan Sulfate Epimerases Form Iduronic Acid Domains in Dermatan Sulfate [PDF]
A second dermatan sulfate epimerase (DS-epi2) was identified as a homolog of the first epimerase (DS-epi1), which was previously described by our group. DS-epi2 is 1,222 amino acids long and has an approximately 700-amino acid N-terminal epimerase domain that is highly conserved between the two enzymes.

Sequencing the Dermatan Sulfate Chain of Decorin. [PDF]
Glycomics represents one of the last frontiers and most challenging in omic analysis. Glycosylation occurs in the endoplasmic reticulum and the Golgi organelle and its control is neither well-understood nor predictable based on proteomic or genomic analysis.

Biosynthesis of Dermatan Sulfate [PDF]
We identified the gene encoding chondroitin-glucuronate C5-epimerase (EC 5.1.3.19) that converts d-glucuronic acid to l-iduronic acid residues in dermatan sulfate biosynthesis. The enzyme was solubilized from bovine spleen, and an ∼43,000-fold purified preparation containing a major 89-kDa candidate component was subjected to mass spectrometry analysis

A process of chemical depolymerization of dermatan sulfate (DS) byfree radicals ispresented. The low molecular weight dermatan sulfate (LMW-DS) obtained by radicai fragmentation is characterized by physico-chemicalproperties (molecular weight, sulfate/carboxyl ratto, uronic acid percentage, electrophoretic profile), purity (by thè agarose ...

A Possible Role for Arylsulfatase G in Dermatan Sulfate Metabolism. [PDF]
Perturbations of glycosaminoglycan metabolism lead to mucopolysaccharidoses (MPS)—lysosomal storage diseases. One type of MPS (type VI) is associated with a deficiency of arylsulfatase B (ARSB), for which we previously established a cellular model ...

Studies on the biosynthesis of dermatan sulfate [PDF]
It is generally accepted that the biosynthesis of polysaccharide proteins in mammalian tissues follows a certain schedule [ 1,2] involving four principal steps: (a) formation of the polypeptide backbone, (b) stepwise addition of monosaccharide units from the appropiate nucleotide sugars to form the linkage j e ion to protein, and (c) the alternate ...

DSE promotes aggressive glioma cell phenotypes by enhancing HB-EGF/ErbB signaling. [PDF]
Remodeling of the extracellular matrix (ECM) in the tumor microenvironment promotes glioma progression. Chondroitin sulfate (CS) proteoglycans appear in the ECM and on the cell surface, and can be catalyzed by dermatan sulfate epimerase to form ...

Dermatan Sulfate Epimerase 1-Deficient Mice have Reduced Content and Changed Distribution of Iduronic acids in Dermatan Sulfate and an Altered Collagen Structure in Skin. [PDF]
Dermatan sulfate epimerase 1 (DS-epi1) and 2 convert glucuronic acid to iduronic acid in chondroitin/dermatan sulfate biosynthesis. Here we report on the generation of DS-epi1-null mice and the resulting alterations in the chondroitin/dermatan ...
