Alpha-fucosidase-ganglioside interactions. Action of alpha-L-fucosidase from the hepatopancreas of Octopus vulgaris on a fucose-containing ganglioside (Fuc-GM1).

Biochem. J. 229(3) , 595-603, (1985)

alpha-L-Fucosidase, prepared in highly purified form (Mr 70 000-74 000) from Octopus hepatopancreas, was able to hydrolyse a fucose-containing ganglioside, namely Fuc-GM1 (II3NeuAc,IV2Fuc-GgOse4-Cer). The enzyme showed an irregular kinetic behaviour (v/[S] an...

Action of alpha-L-fucoside from Octopus vulgaris hepatopancreas on phospholipid vesicles containing the fucosylated ganglioside FucGM1.

Glycoconj. J. 10(6) , 447-52, (1993)

The behaviour of a highly purified alpha-L-fucosidase (E.C. 3.2.1.51) extracted from octopus hepatopancreas was studied with phospholipid vesicles composed of phosphatidylcholine (PC) and phosphatidylserine (PS) containing the fucosylated ganglioside FucGM1, ...
