physiological function
-
the enzyme is involved in the degradation of the glycosaminoglycans dermatan sulfate and heparan sulfate
additional information
-
the enzyme uses its own N-glycan as a substrate binding and catalytic module. The mannose residue of the N-glycan attached to N372 constitutes a part of the substrate-binding pocket and interacts directly with a substrate. The kinetics of native and deglycosylated hIDUA suggest that the N-glycan is also involved in catalytic processes. Concanavalin A pull-down assay shows that PNGase F-resistant N-glycans are essential for the enzyme activity.
