Published in 2019 at "Analytical and Bioanalytical Chemistry"

DOI: 10.1007/s00216-019-01575-x

Abstract: Abstractα-L-Fucosidase (AFU) is a promising therapeutic target for the treatment of inflammation, cancer, cystic fibrosis, and fucosidosis. Some of the existing analytical methods for the assessment of AFU activity are lacking in sensitivity and selectivity,… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Immunologic Research"

DOI: 10.1007/s12026-017-8943-x

Abstract: Human α-fucosidase (EC 3.2.1.51) is an enzyme (hydrolase) of particular biological and medical interest, as the inherited deficiency in its activity leads to fucosidosis, a pathology belonging to severe glycoprotein lysosomal storage disorders. Although its… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "International journal of biological macromolecules"

DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2017.06.050

Abstract: Kinetic and biophysical studies have been carried out on a lysosomal α-l-fucosidase purified from the fresh water mussel, Lamellidens corrianus. The enzyme migrates as a single band in SDS-PAGE as well as native PAGE corresponding… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Theriogenology"

DOI: 10.1016/j.theriogenology.2017.08.016

Abstract: The mammalian epididymis provides an appropriate environment for sperm maturation. During the epididymal transit, spermatozoa undergo biochemical and morphological changes that lead to the acquisition of the fertilizing capacity. In this study we analysed the… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Scientific Reports"

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-018-27797-0

Abstract: Exoglycosidases are often used for detailed characterization of glycan structures. Bovine kidney α-fucosidase is commonly used to determine the presence of core α1-6 fucose on N-glycans, an important modification of glycoproteins. Recently, several studies have… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Journal of Cancer"

DOI: 10.7150/jca.75840

Abstract: Glycosidases and glycosyltransferases greatly impact malignant phenotype of tumors though genetics and epigenetics mechanisms. As the member of glycoside hydrolase (GH) families 29A, α-L-fucosidases (AFUs) are involved in the hydrolysis of terminal L-fucose residues linked… read more here.
