Arginase I is constitutively expressed in human granulocytes and participates in fungicidal activity.
-
Arginase I is constitutively expressed only in granulocytes among human leukocytes and is localized in azurophil granules, constituting an antimicrobial effector pathway via arginine depletion in the phagolysosome.
"arginase I is localized in azurophil granules of neutrophils and constitutes a novel antimicrobial effector pathway, likely through arginine depletion in the phagolysosome"
Crystal structure of human arginase I at 1.29-A resolution and exploration of inhibition in the immune response.
-
The 1.29-A structure reveals the binuclear manganese cluster of human arginase I and the structural basis of catalysis and inhibition.
"The ultrahigh-resolution structure of the human arginase I-ABH complex yields an unprecedented view of the binuclear manganese cluster"
Suppression of T-cell functions by human granulocyte arginase.
-
Arginase I released from human granulocytes accumulates extracellularly during inflammation and suppresses T-cell proliferation and cytokine synthesis by depleting arginine, downregulating the CD3-zeta chain.
"This T-cell phenotype is due to arginase-mediated depletion of arginine in the T-cell environment, which leads to CD3zeta chain down-regulation but does not alter T-cell viability"
Expression, purification, assay, and crystal structure of perdeuterated human arginase I.
-
Human arginase I is a manganese metalloenzyme that catalyzes hydrolysis of L-arginine to L-ornithine and urea, confirmed by assay and X-ray structure.
"Arginase is a manganese metalloenzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of l-arginine to yield l-ornithine and urea."
Proteomic characterization of the human sperm nucleus.
-
A large-scale proteomic catalog identified 403 proteins in isolated human sperm nuclei; ARG1 is one large-scale MS detection, not a targeted study of nuclear arginase function.
"403 different proteins have been identified from the isolated sperm nuclei"
Binding of alpha,alpha-disubstituted amino acids to arginase suggests new avenues for inhibitor design.
-
Arginase is a binuclear manganese metalloenzyme that hydrolyzes L-arginine to L-ornithine and urea; arginase I is cytosolic and predominantly hepatic, whereas arginase II is mitochondrial.
"Arginase I is a cytosolic enzyme found predominantly in the liver, and arginase II is a mitochondrial enzyme found at highest concentrations in the kidney."
Analysis of novel ARG1 mutations causing hyperargininemia and correlation with arginase I activity in erythrocytes.
-
Hyperargininemia is caused by deficient arginase I activity encoded by ARG1; the R308 residue is important for assembly of the ARG1 homotrimer.
"Our study reinforced the role of Arg308 residue for assembly of the ARG1 homotrimer."
CMTM6 maintains the expression of PD-L1 and regulates anti-tumour immunity.
-
This study identifies CMTM6 as a regulator of PD-L1 cell-surface expression; ARG1 appears only as a mass-spectrometry co-precipitant of CMTM6, providing no functional evidence for an ARG1-specific role.
"CMTM6 is a ubiquitously expressed protein that binds PD-L1 and maintains its cell surface expression."
Molecular cloning and nucleotide sequence of cDNA for human liver arginase.
-
Human liver arginase (EC 3.5.3.1) catalyzes the last step of the urea cycle; cloned cDNA conferred arginase activity, and inherited deficiency causes argininemia.
"Arginase (EC 3.5.3.1) catalyzes the last step of the urea cycle in the liver of ureotelic animals."
Exocytosis of specific granule lumen proteins
Exocytosis of azurophil granule lumen proteins
arginine + H2O => ornithine + urea [ARG1]
ARG1 variants don't synthesize urea and ornithine
