| mannose-6-phosphate | <biochemistry> Mannose derivative formed by phosphorylation in the Golgi complex of certain mannose residues on N glycan chains of lysosomal enzymes. Believed to function as targetting signal that causes entry of these enzymes to the lysosomes. The receptor (215 kD) is enriched in specialised pre lysosomes. (18 Nov 1997) |
|---|---|
| mannose-6-phosphate isomerase | <enzyme> An enzyme that catalyses the reversible isomerization of d-mannose-6-phosphate to form d-fructose-6-phosphate, an important step in glycolysis. Chemical name: D-Mannose-6-phosphate ketol isomerase Registry number: EC 5.3.1.8 (12 Dec 1998) |
| mannose-6-phosphate receptors | Receptors in Golgi apparatus to which newly synthesised proteins that are destined to enter lysosomes bind. (05 Mar 2000) |
| mannose-6-phosphate reductase | <enzyme> Involved in biosynthesis of mannitol in celery Registry number: EC 1.1.1.224 Synonym: manp reductase (26 Jun 1999) |
