Activity of β4GalNAcTB is disrupted by Triton X-100. (A) Microsomal preparations of HEK293 transfected with β4GalNAcTs and GABPI as indicated were assayed for activity with GlcNAc-pNP as an acceptor and [3H]UDP-GalNAc or [3H]UDP-Gal (endogenous activity as an internal control) as donor substrates. Each value represents the mean of three independent vesicle preparations with standard deviation. GalNAcTB mix GABPI indicates that the proteins were expressed separately but mixed afterward for assays. (B and C) Microsomal fractions of HEK293 cells transfected with β4GalNAcTA (B) or the combination β4GalNAcTB–GABPI (C) were treated with Triton X-100 and saponin in various concentrations and assayed for GalNAcT activity as in A.
