title: [Regulation of supermolecular organization and catalytic activity of the lysosomal complex GM1-galactosidase and neuraminidase in vitro].
abstract: The regulation of the catalytic activity and supramolecular organization of human kidney Gm1-galactosidase and neuraminidase was investigated in the reversed micellar systems of Aerosol OT in octane. It was found that in the reversed micellar systems the Gm1-galactosidase can exist in the monomeric, tetrameric or octameric forms depending on the H2O/surfactant ratio in the system which determines the micelle size. The association of Gm1-galactosidase monomers into octameric structure characteristic of Gm1-galactosidase in the lysosomes results in a two fold increase of the specific catalytic activity of the enzyme. 32 kDa "protective" protein--the component of Gm1-galactosidase--neuraminidase native complex was found to improve significantly this association.
