The cDNA hybridized with a 2.3-kb mRNA from human liver and HL-60 promyelocytes. The gene for lysosomal acid phosphatase was localized to human chromosome 11. The cDNA includes a 12-bp 5' noncoding region, an open reading frame of 1269 bp and an 831-bp 3' non-coding region with a putative polyadenylation signal 25 bp upstream of a 3' poly(A) tract. The deduced amino acid sequence reveals a putative signal sequence of 30 amino acids followed by a sequence of 393 amino acids that contains eight potential glycosylation sites and a hydrophobic region, which could function as a transmembrane domain. A 60% homology between the known 23 N-terminal amino acid residues of human prostatic acid phosphatase and the N-terminal sequence of lysosomal acid phosphatase suggests an evolutionary link between these two phosphatases. Insertion of the cDNA into the expression vector pSVL yielded a construct that encoded enzymatically active acid phosphatase in transfected monkey COS cells."],["dc.format.mimetype","application/pdf"],["dc.identifier.purl","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?goescholar/3431"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/61020"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.intern","Migrated from goescholar"],["dc.publisher","Nature Publishing Group"],["dc.relation.issn","0261-4189"],["dc.rights","Goescholar"],["dc.rights.access","openAccess"],["dc.rights.uri","https://goescholar.uni-goettingen.de/licenses"],["dc.subject","lysosomal acid hydrolyase; human chromosome 11"],["dc.subject.ddc","610"],["dc.title","Human lysosomal acid phosphatase: cloning, expression and chromosomal assignment"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.peerReviewed","yes"],["dc.type.version","published_version"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]Details2009Review [["dc.bibliographiccitation.firstpage","710"],["dc.bibliographiccitation.issue","4"],["dc.bibliographiccitation.journal","Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular Cell Research"],["dc.bibliographiccitation.lastpage","725"],["dc.bibliographiccitation.volume","1793"],["dc.contributor.author","Dierks, Thomas"],["dc.contributor.author","Schlotawa, Lars"],["dc.contributor.author","Frese, Marc-Andre"],["dc.contributor.author","Radhakrishnan, Karthikeyan"],["dc.contributor.author","von Figura, Kurt"],["dc.contributor.author","Schmidt, Bernhard"],["dc.date.accessioned","2018-11-07T08:30:52Z"],["dc.date.available","2018-11-07T08:30:52Z"],["dc.date.issued","2009"],["dc.description.abstract","Multiple sulfatase deficiency (MSD), mucolipidosis (MIL) II/III and Niemann-Pick type C1 (NPC1) disease are rare but fatal lysosomal storage disorders caused by the genetic defect of non-lysosomal proteins. The NPC1 protein mainly localizes to late endosomes and is essential for cholesterol redistribution from endocytosed LDL to cellular membranes. NPC1 deficiency leads to lysosomal accumulation of a broad range of lipids. The precise functional mechanism of this membrane protein, however, remains puzzling. ML II, also termed I cell disease. and the less severe ML III result from deficiencies of the Golgi enzyme N-acetylglucosamine 1-phosphotransferase leading to a global defect of lysosome biogenesis. In patient cells, newly synthesized lysosomal proteins are not equipped with the critical lysosomal trafficking marker mannose 6-phosphate, thus escaping from lysosomal sorting at the trans Golgi network. MSD affects the entire sulfatase family, at least seven members of which are lysosomal enzymes that are specifically involved in the degradation of sulfated glycosaminoglycans, sulfolipids or other sulfated molecules. The combined deficiencies of all sulfatases result from a defective post-translational modification by the ER-localized formylglycine-generating enzyme (FGE), which oxidizes a specific cysteine residue to formylglycine, the catalytic residue enabling a unique mechanism of sulfate ester hydrolysis. This review gives an update on the molecular bases of these enigmatic diseases, which have been challenging researchers since many decades and so far led to a number of surprising findings that give deeper insight into both the cell biology and the pathobiochemistry underlying these complex disorders. In case of MSD, considerable progress has been made in recent years towards an understanding of disease-causing FGE mutations. First approaches to link molecular parameters with clinical manifestation have been described and even therapeutical options have been addressed. Further. the discovery of FGE as an essential sulfatase activating enzyme has considerable impact on enzyme replacement or gene therapy of lysosomal storage disorders caused by single sulfatase deficiencies.

Inactivity of FGE results in multiple sulfatase deficiency (MSD), a fatal autosomal recessive syndrome. Based on the crystal structure, we report that FGE is a single-domain monomer with a surprising paucity of secondary structure and adopts a unique fold. The effect of all 18 missense mutations found in MSD patients is explained by the FGE structure, providing a molecular basis of MSD.
