The dependence of glycosyltransferases in Dictyostelium discoideum on the structure of polyisoprenols
Abstract
Mannosyltransferases in plasma membranes of Dictyostelium discoideum synthesize polyisoprenylphosphomannosides from exogenous polyisoprenylphosphates and GDP-mannose. The specificity of the enzymes depends on the chain length and the saturation of the polyisoprenols. Maximum activity is reached by a alpha-saturated C-55 polyisoprenylphosphate.
