Site-directed mutagenesis of human membrane-associated ganglioside sialidase: identification of amino-acid residues contributing to substrate specificity.

Unlike microbial sialidases, mammalian sialidases possess strict substrate specificity, for example the human membrane-associated sialidase, which hydrolyzes only gangliosides. To cast light on the molecular basis of this narrow substrate preference, predicted active site amino-acid residues of the human membrane sialidase were altered by site-directed mutagenesis. When compared with the active site amino-acid residues proposed for Salmonella typhimurium sialidase, only five out of 13 residues were found to be different to the human enzyme, these being located upstream of the putative transmembrane region. Alteration of seven residues, including these five, was followed by transient expression of the mutant enzymes in COS-1 cells and characterization of their kinetic properties using various substrates. Substitution of glutamic acid (at position 51) by aspartic acid and of arginine (at position 114) by glutamine or alanine resulted in retention of good catalytic efficiency toward ganglioside substrates, whereas other substitutions caused a marked reduction. The mutant enzyme E51D exhibited an increase in hydrolytic activity towards GM2 as well as sialyllactose (which are poor substrates for the wild-type) with change to a lower Km and a higher Vmax. R114Q demonstrated a substrate specificity shift in the same direction as E51D, whereas R114A enhanced the preference for gangliosides GD3 and GD1a that are effectively hydrolyzed by the wild-type. The inhibition experiments using 2-deoxy-2,3-didehydro-N-acetylneuraminic acid were consistent with the results in the alteration of substrate specificity. The findings suggest that putative active-site residues of the human membrane sialidase contribute to its substrate specificity. << Less

Based on the human cDNA sequence predicted to represent the NEU4 sialidase gene in public databases, a cDNA covering the entire coding sequence was isolated from human brain and expressed in mammalian cells. The cDNA encodes two isoforms: one possessing an N-terminal 12-amino-acid sequence that is predicted to be a mitochondrial targeting sequence, and the other lacking these amino acids. Expression of the isoforms is tissue specific, as assessed by reverse transcription-PCR. Brain, muscle and kidney contained both isoforms; liver showed the highest expression, and the short form was predominant in this organ. In transiently transfected COS-1 cells, enzyme activity was markedly increased with gangliosides as well as with glycoproteins and oligosaccharides as substrates compared with the control levels. This differs from findings with other human sialidases. Although the isoforms were not distinguishable with regard to substrate specificity, they exhibited differential subcellular localizations. Immunofluorescence microscopy and biochemical fractionation demonstrated that an exogenously expressed haemagglutinin-tagged long form of NEU4 was concentrated in mitochondria in several human culture cell types, whereas the short form was present in intracellular membranes, indicating that the sequence comprising the N-terminal 12 amino acid residues acts as a targeting signal for mitochondria. Co-localization of the long form to mitochondria was further supported by efficient targeting of the N-terminal region fused to enhanced green fluorescent protein, and by the targeting failure of a mutant with an amino acid substitution in this region. NEU4 is possibly involved in regulation of apoptosis by modulation of ganglioside G(D3), which accumulates in mitochondria during apoptosis and is the best substrate for the sialidase. << Less
