설명

일반 설명

Chitotriosidase (CT) is a human chitinase with catalytic activity upon the substrate chitin, a polymer of ?-1,4-N-acetylglucosamine. The mature CT consists of 445 amino acids, and contains a potential N-glycosylation site as well as three intrachain disulfide bonds.

애플리케이션

The enzymatic activity of recombinant human CT is measured by its ability to hydrolyze the substrate 4-Methylumbelliferyl beta -D-N,N′,N”-triacetylchitotriose (Cat. # M5639). This enzymatic hydrolysis releases 4-methylumbelliferone (4MU), which upon ionization in basic pH, can be measured fluorimetrically at an excitation wavelength of 340 nm and an emission wavelength of 465 nm. The use of fluorimetric substrates provides a very sensitive detection system.

생화학적/생리학적 작용

CT is currently the most reliable biomarker in Gaucher disease - serum and plasma CT activity is usually measured as the first step in diagnosis of Gaucher disease. Monitoring chitotriosidase activity is widely used during treatment of this pathology by enzyme replacement therapy. Its elevated plasma level reflects gradual intralysosomal accumulation in Gaucher cells (lipid-loaded macrophages). Macrophages overloaded by the enzyme accumulated in lysosomal material (lipids) were shown to secrete chitotriosidase; its increased expression was noted in several lysosomal storage diseases and atherosclerosis.
