additional information recombinant enzyme HG-5epi, expressed in insect cells, epimerizes GlcA residues in heparosan, but not in N-sulfated-heparosan. Conversion of IdoA to GlcA is also catalyzed by HG-5epi when completely desulfated N-acetylated heparin is used as the substrate, indicating a reversible reaction mechanism. At equilibrium of the epimerization, the proportion of IdoA in the reaction product reaches up to 30% of total hexuronic acid. The recombinant enzyme catalyzes the epimerization of non-sulfated heparosan, product identification by using a combination of anion-exchange HPLC and postcolumn fluorescent labeling system Lissachatina fulica ?

General Information

General Information Comment Organism
physiological function iduronic acid (IdoA) is a critical component of heparan sulfate in its interaction with functional proteins. Heparosan-N-sulfate-glucuronate 5-epimerase (HNSG-5epi) converts D-glucuronic acid (GlcA) residues in N-sulfated heparosan (NS-heparosan), as an intermediate in heparan sulfate biosynthesis, to IdoA. HG-5epi (heparosan-glucuronate 5-epimerase) is involved in acharan sulfate biosynthesis possesia distinct substrate specificity in Achatina fulica Lissachatina fulica
