EC 2.4.1.125     Relevance: 100%
Accepted name: sucrose—1,6-α-glucan 3(6)-α-glucosyltransferase
Reaction: (1) sucrose + [(1→6)-α-D-glucosyl]n = D-fructose + [(1→6)-α-D-glucosyl]n+1
(2) sucrose + [(1→6)-α-D-glucosyl]n = D-fructose + (1→3)-α-D-glucosyl-[(1→6)-α-D-glucosyl]n
Other name(s): water-soluble-glucan synthase (misleading); GTF-I; GTF-S; GTF-SI; sucrose-1,6-α-glucan 3(6)-α-glucosyltransferase; sucrose:1,6-α-D-glucan 3-α- and 6-α-glucosyltransferase; sucrose:1,6-, 1,3-α-D-glucan 3-α- and 6-α-D-glucosyltransferase; sucrose:1,6-α-D-glucan 3(6)-α-D-glucosyltransferase; gtfB (gene name); gtfC (gene name); gtfD (gene name)
Systematic name: sucrose:(1→6)-α-D-glucan 3(6)-α-D-glucosyltransferase
Comments: The glucansucrases transfer a D-glucosyl residue from sucrose to a glucan chain. They are classified based on the linkage by which they attach the transferred residue. In some cases, in which the enzyme forms more than one linkage type, classification relies on the relative proportion of the linkages that are generated. This enzyme extends (1→6)-α-D-glucans by both α(1→3) and α(1→6) linkages, with one of the linkage types being dominant. cf. EC 2.4.1.140, alternansucrase.

Comments: The formation of N-glycosidic linkages of glycoproteins involves the ordered assembly of the common Glc3Man9GlcNAc2 core-oligosaccharide on the lipid carrier dolichyl diphosphate. Early mannosylation steps occur on the cytoplasmic side of the endoplasmic reticulum with GDP-Man as donor, the final reactions from Man5GlcNAc2-PP-Dol to Man9Glc-NAc2-PP-Dol on the lumenal side use dolichyl β-D-mannosyl phosphate. ALG9 mannosyltransferase catalyses the addition of two different α-1,2-mannose residues - the addition of α-1,2-mannose to Man6GlcNAc2-PP-Dol (EC 2.4.1.259) and the addition of α-1,2-mannose to Man8GlcNAc2-PP-Dol (EC 2.4.1.261).

Other name(s): MNL1 (gene name)
Systematic name: Man8GlcNAc2-[protein] 2-α-mannohydrolase (configuration-inverting)
Comments: In yeast this activity is catalysed by a dedicated enzyme that processes unfolded protein-bound Man8GlcNAc2 N-glycans within the endoplasmic reticulum to Man7GlcNAc2. The exposed α-1,6-linked mannose residue in the product enables the recognition by the YOS9 lectin, targeting the proteins for degradation. In mammalian cells this activity is part of the regular processing of N-glycosylated proteins, and is not associated with protein degradation. It is carried out by EC 3.2.1.113, Golgi mannosyl-oligosaccharide 1,2-α-mannosidase. The names of the isomers listed here are based on a nomenclature system proposed by Prien et al [5].

Accepted name: alternansucrase
Reaction: Transfers alternately an α-D-glucosyl residue from sucrose to the 6-position and the 3-position of the non-reducing terminal residue of an α-D-glucan, thus producing a glucan having alternating α-(1→6)- and α-(1→3)-linkages
Other name(s): sucrose-1,6(3)-α-glucan 6(3)-α-glucosyltransferase; sucrose:1,6-, 1,3-α-D-glucan 3-α- and 6-α-D-glucosyltransferase; sucrose:1,6(1,3)-α-D-glucan 6(3)-α-D-glucosyltransferase
Systematic name: sucrose:(1→6)[(1→3)]-α-D-glucan 6(3)-α-D-glucosyltransferase
Comments: The glucansucrases transfer a D-glucosyl residue from sucrose to a glucan chain. They are classified based on the linkage by which they attach the transferred residue. In some cases, in which the enzyme forms more than one linkage type, classification relies on the relative proportion of the linkages that are generated. This enzyme forms both α(1→3) and α(1→6) linkages in approximately equal amounts by alternating the linkage type. cf. EC 2.4.1.125, sucrose—1,6-α-glucan 3(6)-α-glucosyltransferase.

Systematic name: GDP-β-L-fucose:β-D-galactosyl-(1→3)-N-acetyl-β-D-glucosaminyl-R 4I-α-L-fucosyltransferase (configuration-inverting)
Comments: This enzyme is the product of the Lewis blood group gene. Normally acts on a glycoconjugate where R (see reaction) is a glycoprotein or glycolipid. Although it is a 4-fucosyltransferase, it has a persistent 3-fucosyltransferase activity towards the glucose residue in free lactose. This enzyme fucosylates on O-4 of an N-acetylglucosamine that carries a galactosyl group on O-3, unlike EC 2.4.1.152, 4-galactosyl-N-acetylglucosaminide 3-α-L-fucosyltransferase, which fucosylates on O-3 of an N-acetylglucosamine that carries a galactosyl group on O-4. Enzymes catalysing the 4-α-fucosylation of the GlcNAc in β-D-Gal-(1→3)-β-GlcNAc sequences (with some activity also as 3-α-fucosyltransferases) are present in plants, where the function in vivo is the modification of N-glycans. In addition, the fucTa gene of Helicobacter strain UA948 encodes a fucosyltransferase with both 3-α- and 4-α-fucosyltransferase activities.

Accepted name: α-1,6-mannosyl-glycoprotein 4-β-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase
Reaction: UDP-N-acetyl-α-D-glucosamine + β-D-GlcNAc-(1→2)-[β-D-GlcNAc-(1→4)]-α-D-Man-(1→3)-[β-D-GlcNAc-(1→2)-[β-D-GlcNAc-(1→6)]-α-D-Man-(1→6)]-β-D-Man-(1→4)-β-D-GlcNAc-(1→4)-β-D-GlcNAc-N-Asn-[protein] = UDP + β-D-GlcNAc-(1→2)-[β-D-GlcNAc-(1→4)]-α-D-Man-(1→3)-[β-D-GlcNAc-(1→2)-[β-D-GlcNAc-(1→4)]-[β-D-GlcNAc-(1→6)]-α-D-Man-(1→6)]-β-D-Man-(1→4)-β-D-GlcNAc-(1→4)-β-D-GlcNAc-N-Asn-[protein]

Systematic name: UDP-N-acetyl-α-D-glucosamine:N-acetyl-β-D-glucosaminyl-(1→6)-[N-acetyl-β-D-glucosaminyl-(1→2)]-α-D-mannosyl-glycoprotein 4-β-N-acetyl-D-glucosaminyltransferase (configuration-inverting)
Comments: Requires a high concentration of Mn2+ for maximal activity. The enzyme, characterized from hen oviduct membranes, participates in the processing of N-glycans in the Golgi apparatus. It transfers GlcNAc in β1-4 linkage to a D-mannose residue that already has GlcNAc residues attached at positions 2 and 6 by β linkages. No homologous enzyme appears to exist in mammals.
