Disease

ASPG_HUMAN Defects in AGA are the cause of aspartylglucosaminuria (AGU) [MIM:208400. AGU is an inborn lysosomal storage disease. Clinical features of AGU include mild to severe mental retardation manifesting from the age of 2, coarse facial features and mild connective tissue abnormalities. This recessively inherited disease is overrepresented in the Finnish population.^[1] ^[2] ^[3] ^[4] ^[5] ^[6]

Function

ASPG_HUMAN Cleaves the GlcNAc-Asn bond which joins oligosaccharides to the peptide of asparagine-linked glycoproteins.

Publication Abstract from PubMed

The high resolution crystal structure of human lysosomal aspartylglucosaminidase (AGA) has been determined. This lysosomal enzyme is synthesized as a single polypeptide precursor, which is immediately post-translationally cleaved into alpha- and beta-subunits. Two alpha- and beta-chains are found to pack together forming the final heterotetrameric structure. The catalytically essential residue, the N-terminal threonine of the beta-chain is situated in the deep pocket of the funnel-shaped active site. On the basis of the structure of the enzyme-product complex we present a catalytic mechanism for this lysosomal enzyme with an exceptionally high pH optimum. The three-dimensional structure also allows the prediction of the structural consequences of human mutations resulting in aspartylglucosaminuria (AGU), a lysosomal storage disease.
