Processing of lysosomal hydrolases in a healthy cell
In a healthy person, cells phosphorylate lysosomal hydrolases by GlcNAc-1-phosphotransferase in the cis-Golgi network. The uncovering enzyme removed the masking of N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) to expose mannose 6-phosphate (M6P) residues in the trans-Golgi network (Velho RV, Harms FL, Danyukova T, et al. The lysosomal storage disorders mucolipidosis type II, type III alpha/beta, and type III gamma: update on GNPTAB and GNPTG mutations. Hum Mutat 2019;40(7):842-64.)
The M6P-exposed enzymes are taken up by endosomes with the M6P receptor and are delivered to lysosomes. (Source: Khan SA, Tomatsu SC. Mucolipidoses overview: past, present, and future.
