Abstract
N-glycans provide structural and functional stability to asparagine-linked (N-linked) glycoproteins, and add flexibility. Glycan biosynthesis is elaborative, multi-compartmental and involves many glycosyltransferases. Failure to assemble N-glycans leads to phenotypic changes developing infection, cancer, congenital disorders of glycosylation (CDGs) among others. Biosynthesis of N-glycans begins at the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) with the assembly of dolichol-linked tetra-decasaccharide (Glc3Man9GlcNAc2-PP-Dol) where dolichol phosphate mannose synthase (DPMS) plays a central role. DPMS is also essential for GPI anchor biosynthesis as well as for O- and C-mannosylation of proteins in yeast and in mammalian cells. DPMS has been purified from several sources and its gene has been cloned from 39 species (e.g., from protozoan parasite to human). It is an inverting GT-A folded enzyme and classified as GT2 by CAZy (carbohydrate active enZyme; http://www.cazy.org). The sequence alignment detects the presence of a metal binding DAD signature in DPMS from all 39 species but finds cAMP-dependent protein phosphorylation motif (PKA motif) in only 38 species. DPMS also has hydrophobic region(s). Hydropathy analysis of amino acid sequences from bovine, human, S. crevisiae and A. thaliana DPMS show PKA motif is present between the hydrophobic domains. The location of PKA motif as well as the hydrophobic domain(s) in the DPMS sequence vary from species to species. For example, the domain(s) could be located at the center or more towards the C-terminus. Irrespective of their catalytic similarity, the DNA sequence, the amino acid identity, and the lack of a stretch of hydrophobic amino acid residues at the C-terminus, DPMS is still classified as Type I and Type II enzyme. Because of an apparent bio-sensing ability, extracellular signaling and microenvironment regulate DPMS catalytic activity. In this review, we highlight some important features and the molecular diversities of DPMS.
