Purification to apparent homogeneity and properties of pig kidney L-fucose kinase.
Park S.H., Pastuszak I., Drake R., Elbein A.D.
L-Fucokinase was purified to apparent homogeneity from pig kidney cytosol. The molecular mass of the enzyme on a gel filtration column was 440 kDa, whereas on SDS gels a single protein band of 110 kDa was observed. This 110-kDa protein was labeled in a concentration-dependent manner by azido-[32P] ... >> More
L-Fucokinase was purified to apparent homogeneity from pig kidney cytosol. The molecular mass of the enzyme on a gel filtration column was 440 kDa, whereas on SDS gels a single protein band of 110 kDa was observed. This 110-kDa protein was labeled in a concentration-dependent manner by azido-[32P]ATP, and labeling was inhibited by cold ATP. The 110-kDa protein was subjected to endo-Lys-C digestion, and several peptides were sequenced. These showed very little similarity to other known protein sequences. The enzyme phosphorylated L-fucose using ATP to form beta-L-fucose-1-P. Of many sugars tested, the only other sugar phosphorylated by the purified enzyme was D-arabinose, at about 10% the rate of L-fucose. Many of the properties of the enzyme were determined and are described in this paper. This enzyme is part of a salvage pathway for reutilization of L-fucose and is also a valuable biochemical tool to prepare activated L-fucose derivatives for fucosylation reactions. << Less

Fucokinase, its anomeric specificity and mechanism of phosphate group transfer.
Butler W., Serif G.S.
Fucokinase phosphorylates L-fucose at the anomeric position and, as such, might use either the alpha or beta anomer as its substrate. Examination of the utilization of radiolabelled alpha and alpha,beta mixtures established beta-L-fucose as the required substrate. Phosphorylation at the anomeric c ... >> More
Fucokinase phosphorylates L-fucose at the anomeric position and, as such, might use either the alpha or beta anomer as its substrate. Examination of the utilization of radiolabelled alpha and alpha,beta mixtures established beta-L-fucose as the required substrate. Phosphorylation at the anomeric center might involve either the loss or retention of the anomeric oxygen. The mechanism has been shown to involve anomeric oxygen retention through mass spectrometric analysis of the product phosphate derived from 18O-labelled L-fucose. << Less

A bifunctional enzyme with L-fucokinase and GDP-L-fucose pyrophosphorylase activities salvages free L-fucose in Arabidopsis.

Monomeric sugars generated during the metabolism of polysaccharides, glycoproteins, and glycolipids are imported to the cytoplasm and converted to respective nucleotide sugars via monosaccharide 1-phosphates, to be reutilized as activated sugars. Because L-fucose (L-Fuc) is activated mainly in the form of GDP derivatives in seed plants, the salvage reactions for L-Fuc are expected to be independent from those for Glc, Gal, L-arabinose, and glucuronic acid, which are activated as UDP-sugars. For this study we have identified, in the genomic data base of Arabidopsis, the gene (designated AtFKGP) of a bifunctional enzyme with similarity to both L-fucokinase and GDP-L-Fuc pyrophosphorylase. Recombinant AtFKGP (rAt-FKGP) expressed in Escherichia coli showed both L-fucokinase and GDP-L-Fuc pyrophosphorylase activities, generating GDP-L-Fuc from L-Fuc, ATP, and GTP as the starting substrates. Point mutations in rAtFKGPs at either Gly(133) or Gly(830) caused loss of GDP-L-Fuc pyrophosphorylase and l-fucokinase activity, respectively. The apparent K(m) values of L-fucokinase activity of rAtFKGP for L-Fuc and ATP were 1.0 and 0.45 mm, respectively, and those of GDP-L-Fuc pyrophosphorylase activity for L-Fuc 1-phosphate and GTP were 0.052 and 0.17 mm, respectively. The expression of AtFKGP was detected in most cell types of Arabidopsis, indicating that salvage reactions for free L-Fuc catalyzed by AtFKGP occur ubiquitously in Arabidopsis. Loss-of-function mutants with tDNA insertion in AtFKGP exhibited higher accumulation of free L-Fuc in the soluble fraction than the wild-type plant. These results indicate that AtFKGP is a bifunctional enzyme with L-fucokinase and GDP-L-Fuc pyrophosphorylase activities, which salvages free L-Fuc in Arabidopsis. << Less
