Alpha1,3-fucosyltransferase IX (Fut9) determines Lewis X expression in brain.

The expression of the Lewis X (Lex) carbohydrate structure in brain is developmentally regulated and is thought to play a role in cell-cell interaction during neuronal development. Mice possess three functional alpha1,3-fucosyltransferase genes: Fut4, Fut7, and Fut9. Fut7 is known to have no activity to synthesize Lex. In the present study, the relative activities of Fut4 and Fut9 for Lex synthesis were determined using recombinant enzymes. Fut9 exhibited very strong activity for oligosaccharide acceptors and glycolipid acceptors, that is, more than 10- and 100-fold, respectively, than that of Fut4. Furthermore, both cerebrum and cerebellum at various stages of development (E17, P0, P7, P30, P100) expressed 15-100 times more Fut9 transcript than Fut4 transcript. Neurons and astrocytes in primary culture also expressed 10-15 times more Fut9 than Fut4 transcript. Moreover, alpha1,3-Fut activity toward a polylactosamine chain in homogenates of brain tissues and primary cultured cells showed a pattern typical of Fut9, not Fut4. The developmental profile of activity for the synthesis of Lex was well correlated with that of Fut9 transcript. Immunohistochemistry with anti-Fut9 monoclonal antibody revealed the distribution of the Lex structure. These results showed that Fut9 is the most responsible enzyme for the synthesis of Lex in brain. << Less

Acceptor specificity of different length constructs of human recombinant alpha 1,3/4-fucosyltransferases. Replacement of the stem region and the transmembrane domain of fucosyltransferase V by protein A results in an enzyme with GDP-fucose hydrolyzing activity.
de Vries T., Srnka C.A., Palcic M.M., Swiedler S.J., van den Eijnden D.H., Macher B.A.
The acceptor specificity of recombinant full-length, membrane-bound fucosyltransferases, expressed in COS-7 cells, and soluble, protein-A chimeric forms of alpha 1,3-fucosyltransferase (Fuc-T) III, Fuc-TIV, and Fuc-TV was analyzed toward a broad panel of oligosaccharide, glycolipid, and glycoprote ... >> More
The acceptor specificity of recombinant full-length, membrane-bound fucosyltransferases, expressed in COS-7 cells, and soluble, protein-A chimeric forms of alpha 1,3-fucosyltransferase (Fuc-T) III, Fuc-TIV, and Fuc-TV was analyzed toward a broad panel of oligosaccharide, glycolipid, and glycoprotein substrates. Our results on the full-length enzymes confirm and extend previous studies. However, chimeric Fuc-Ts showed increased activity toward glycoproteins, whereas chimeric Fuc-TIII and Fuc-TV had a decreased activity with glycosphingolipids, compared to the full-length enzymes. Unexpectedly, chimeric Fuc-TV exhibited a GDP-fucose hydrolyzing activity. In substrates with multiple acceptor sites, the preferred site of fucosylation was identified. Fuc-TIII and Fuc-TV catalyzed fucose transfer exclusively to OH-3 of glucose in lacto-N-neotetraose and lacto-N-tetraose, respectively, as was demonstrated by 1H NMR spectroscopy. Thin layer chromatography immunostaining revealed that FucT-IV preferred the distal GlcNAc residue in nLc6Cer, whereas Fuc-TV preferred the proximal Gl-cNAc residue. Incubation of Fuc-TIV or Fuc-TV with VI3NeuAcnLc6Cer resulted in products with the sialyl-LewisX epitope as well as the VIM-2 structure. To identify polar groups on acceptors that function in enzyme binding, deoxygenated substrate analogs were tested as acceptors. All three Fuc-Ts had an absolute requirement for a hydroxyl at C-6 of galactose in addition to the accepting hydroxyl at C-3 or C-4 of GlcNAc. << Less
