Beta glucuronidase also known as GUSB is an enzyme with several well-known names including b glucuronidase b-glucuronidase and beta-glucuronidase. It is a hydrolase enzyme with a molecular mass around 75 kDa. The enzyme is widely expressed in lysosomes of various tissues such as liver spleen and kidney. Mechanically beta-glucuronidase cleaves beta-D-glucuronic acid residues from glycosaminoglycans steroids and hormones an essential step for the degradation of glycosaminoglycans.
Beta glucuronidase performs significant roles in cellular metabolism and molecule recycling. This enzyme aids in the breakdown and recycling of complex carbohydrates. By facilitating hydrolysis it helps in maintaining cellular homeostasis. Beta glucuronidase is not part of a complex; it functions independently within lysosomes. Its activity is vital for recycling endocytosed material and managing cellular turnover.
Beta glucuronidase plays an important role in the lysosomal degradation pathway. This enzyme aids in glycosaminoglycan catabolism a process important for cellular waste disposal and recycling. Its activity connects with several proteins in the pathway notably those involved in lysosomal function such as Hexosaminidase. Beta glucuronidase's enzymatic function further integrates into the broader context of carbohydrate metabolism pathways enabling efficient breakdown of large carbohydrate molecules.
Mutations or deficiencies in beta glucuronidase lead to mucopolysaccharidosis type VII also called Sly syndrome. This lysosomal storage disorder results in the accumulation of undegraded glycosaminoglycans causing developmental delay skeletal abnormalities and other systemic issues. Additionally beta glucuronidase contributes to cancer biology where altered expressions can influence tumor progression. Proteins like glucocerebrosidase may interact indirectly impacting the disease's pathophysiology.
