GeneID: 10724 Human MGEA5

Swiss-port # O60502 Human Protein O-GlcNAcase

Gene Symbol MGEA5
Gene Full Name meningioma expressed antigen 5 (hyaluronidase)
Background The dynamic modification of cytoplasmic and nuclear proteins by O-linked N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc) addition and removal on serine and threonine residues is catalyzed by OGT (MIM 300255), which adds O-GlcNAc, and MGEA5, a glycosidase that removes O-GlcNAc modifications (Gao et al., 2001 [PubMed 11148210]).[supplied by OMIM, Mar 2008]
Function Isoform 1: Cleaves GlcNAc but not GalNAc from O-glycosylated proteins. Can use p-nitrophenyl-beta-GlcNAc and 4-methylumbelliferone-GlcNAc as substrates but not p-nitrophenyl-beta-GalNAc or p-nitrophenyl-alpha-GlcNAc (in vitro). Does not bind acetyl-CoA and does not have histone acetyltransferase activity.

Isoform 3: Cleaves GlcNAc but not GalNAc from O-glycosylated proteins. Can use p-nitrophenyl-beta-GlcNAc as substrate but not p-nitrophenyl-beta-GalNAc or p-nitrophenyl-alpha-GlcNAc (in vitro), but has about six times lower specific activity than isoform 1. [UniProt]
Cellular Localization Isoform 3: Nucleus. Isoform 1: Cytoplasm. [UniProt]
Calculated MW 103 kDa
PTM Proteolytically cleaved by caspase-3 during apoptosis. The fragments interact with each other; cleavage does not decrease enzyme activity. [UniProt]

    Immunohistochemistry: Paraformaldehyde-fixed and paraffin-embedded Human testis tissue. Tissue was blocked with 3% BSA for 0.5 hour at room temperature. Antigen Retrieval: Heat mediation was performed in Citrate buffer (pH 6.0). Samples were stained with ARG41163 anti-MGEA5 / OGA antibody at 1:25 dilution for 1 hour at 37°C.

    Western blot: 20 µg of U-87 MG cell lysate stained with ARG41163 anti-MGEA5 / OGA antibody at 1:2000 dilution.

  • ARG41163 anti-MGEA5 / OGA antibody FACS image

    Flow Cytometry: HeLa cells were fixed with 2% paraformaldehyde (10 min) and then permeabilized with 90% methanol for 10 min. The cells were then incubated in 2% BSA to block non-specific protein-protein interactions followed by ARG41163 anti-MGEA5 / OGA antibody (right histogram) at 1:25 dilution for 60 min at 37°C, followed by incubation with DyLight®488 labelled secondary antibody. Isotype control antibody (left histogram) was Rabbit IgG1 (1 µg/10^6 cells) used under the same conditions. Acquisition of > 10000 events was performed.
