Abstract excerpt
To understand the role of N-glycosylation of lysosomal phospholipase A2 (LPLA2), four potential N-glycosylation sites in human LPLA2 (hLPLA2) were individually modified replacing asparagine (Asn) with alanine by site-direct mutagenesis. COS-7 cells transiently transfected with wild-type (WT) hLPLA2 gene produced catalytically active LPLA2. A single mutation at 273-, 289-, or 398-Asn partially reduced production...
