Chemoenzymatic Synthesis and Receptor Binding of Mannose-6-Phosphate (M6P)-Containing Glycoprotein Ligands Reveal Unusual Structural Requirements for M6P Receptor Recognition.

Abstract excerpt

Mannose-6-phosphate (M6P)-terminated oligosaccharides are important signals for M6P-receptor-mediated targeting of newly synthesized hydrolases from Golgi to lysosomes, but the precise structural requirement for the M6P ligand-receptor recognition has not been fully understood due to the difficulties in obtaining homogeneous M6P-containing glycoproteins. We describe here a chemoenzymatic synthesis of homogeneous...
