- Abstract
- Deficiency in human lysosomal a-mannosidase (MAN2B1) results in a-mannosidosis, a lysosomal
storage disorder; patients present a wide range of neurological, immunological, and
skeletal symptoms caused by a multisystemic accumulation of mannose-containing oligosaccharides.
Here, we describe the expression of recombinant MAN2B1 both transiently in Nicotiana
benthamiana leaves and in the leaves and seeds of stably transformed N. tabacum plants.
After purification from tobacco leaves, the recombinant enzyme was found to be N-glycosylated
and localized in vacuolar compartments. In the fresh leaves of tobacco transformants,
MAN2B1 was measured at 10 200 units / kg, and the purified enzyme from these leaves had
a specific activity of 32-45 U / mg. Furthermore, tobacco-produced MAN2B1 was biochemically
similar to the enzyme purified from human tissues, and it was internalized and processed
by a-mannosidosis fibroblast cells. These results strongly indicate that plants can be considered
a promising expression system for the production of recombinant MAN2B1 for use in
enzyme replacement therapy. (literal)
