Posttranslational Modification

Posttranslational Modification Comment Organism
additional information the treatments of plasma membranes or microsomal membranes with phosphatases or N-glycosidase F reveals that also HAS activity in internal vesicles can be modulated Mammalia
phosphoprotein ERK-mediated serine phosphorylation of all the three HAS isozymes increases their specific activity. AMP activated protein kinase (AMPK) is considered a sensor of the energy status of the cell and is activated by low ATP:AMP ratio, AMPK leads to the inhibition of hyaluronan secretion by HAS2 phosphorylation at residue Thr110 Mammalia

General Information

General Information Comment Organism
malfunction the regulation of isozyme HAS2 by O-GlcNAcylation can have important therapeutic consequences considering that the excess of glucose can lead to a dramatic increase of UDP-GlcNAc and hyaluronan (in particular in cells where the uptake of glucose is insulin-independent). Clinical and experimental evidences show that in hyperglycemic patients and in streptozotocin-induced diabetes animals there is evidence of hyaluronan accumulation both in plasma and in vascular wall Mammalia
metabolism the most general sensor of cellular nutritional status is the hexosamine biosynthetic pathway that brings to the formation of UDP-GlcNAc and intracellular protein glycosylation by O-linked attachment of the monosaccharide beta-N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAcylation) to specific aminoacid residues. Such highly dynamic and ubiquitous protein modification affects residue Ser221 residue of isozyme HAS2 that lead to a dramatic stabilization of the enzyme in the membrane Mammalia
additional information the mechanism of HAS2 proteasomal degradation is complex and requires additional processes considering the several transmembrane domains of HAS2 and its localization in the plasma membrane Mammalia
physiological function hyaluronan is a glycosaminoglycan composed by repeating units of D-glucuronic acid and N-acetylglucosamine that is ubiquitously present in the extracellular matrix where it has a critical role in the physiology and pathology of several mammalian tissues. Hyaluronan represents a perfect environment in which cells can migrate and proliferate. Several receptors can interact with hyaluronan at cellular level triggering multiple signal transduction responses. The control of the hyaluronan synthesis is therefore critical in extracellular matrix assembly and cell biology, analysis of metabolic regulation of hyaluronan synthesis, overview. In contrast with other glycosaminoglycans, which are synthesized in the Golgi apparatus, hyaluronan is produced at the plasma membrane by hyaluronan synthases (HAS1-3), which use cytoplasmic UDP-glucuronic acid and UDP-N-acetylglucosamine as substrates. UDP-GlcUA and UDP-hexosamine availability is critical for the synthesis of glycosaminoglycans, an energy consuming process Mammalia
