Isolation and Relationship of Human Hexosaminidases
A method for the preparation of highly purified β-hexosaminidase isozymes A and B from human placenta is presented. The purified enzymes possess identical molecular weight and exhibit similar kinetic parameters with artificial fluorogenic substrates.

Insect β-N-acetyl-D-hexosaminidases with broad substrate-spectrum (IBS-Hex) are the homologues of human β-N-acetyl-D-hexosaminidase A/B (HsHex A/ B). These enzymes are distributed in most insect species and vary in physiological roles.

Automated Assay of Hexosaminidases in Serum
Abstract In serum there are two classes of hexosaminidase. One of these is heat-labile and is inactive in children with Tay—Sachs disease. Serum from heterozygotes for Tay—Sachs disease has half the normal activity of the heat-labile enzyme.

GlcNAcstatin:a picomolar, selective O-GlcNAcase inhibitor that modulates intracellular O-glcNAcylation levels [PDF]
Many phosphorylation signal transduction pathways in the eukaryotic cell are modulated by posttranslational modification of specific serines/threonines with N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc).

Enhancement of lysosomal glycohydrolase activity in human primary B lymphocytes during spontaneous apoptosis. [PDF]
It has been shown that lysosomes are involved in B cell apoptosis but lysosomal glycohydrolases have never been investigated during this event. In this study we determined the enzymatic activities of some lysosomal glycohydrolases in human tonsil B ...

A Study of Abscisic Acid Regulated Enzymes and Histone Binding Proteins in Plants [PDF]
Plant hormone abscisic acid (ABA) plays a main role in coordinating various stress signals in plants. ABA regulates the expression of genes and activities of enzymes in response to various stress conditions. In the following studies we were able to study

Increased trans-glycosylation activity of hexosaminidases for synthesis of human milk oligosaccharides [PDF]
It is well known that the composition of human breast milk differs significantly from the one of ordinary bovine milk. Especially the presence of sialylated and fucosylated oligosaccharides contributes to its health and development promoting features for
