dc.description.abstract | The present report describes a comprehensive study on comparative biochemical characterization of two lysosomal enzymes, acid phosphatase and β-hexosaminidase in three different strains of Hydra; Hydra vulgaris Ind-Pune, H. vulgaris Naukuchiatal and H. magnipapillata sf-1 (self-feeder-1). Since morphology and habitat of Hydra effect lysosomal enzymes and their response to environmental pollutants, it would be interesting to identify them in different Hydra strains so as to use them as toxicity testing. Preliminary studies revealed a differential expression of acid phosphatase, β-hexosaminidase and β-glucuronidase in three Hydra strains. Expression of all three lysosomal enzymes in H. vulgaris Ind-Pune was low in comparison to H. vulgaris Naukuchiatal and H. magnipapillata sf-1, while their expression is comparable in H. vulgaris Naukuchiatal and H. magnipapillata sf-1. The Michaelis-Menten (KM) values for lysosomal β-hexosaminidase using 4-nitrophenyl N-acetyl-β-D-glucosaminide as substrate were found to be 1.3 mM, 1.1 mM and 0.8 mM, respectively for H. vulgaris Ind-Pune, H. vulgaris Naukuchiatal and H. magnipapillata sf-1. For acid phosphatase using 4-nitrophenyl-phosphate as substrate, the KM values were 0.38 mM, 1.2 mM and 0.52 mM respectively, for H. vulgaris Ind-Pune, H. vulgaris Naukuchiatal and sf-1 strains. The optimum temperature for β-hexosaminidase was 60 °C for H. vulgaris Ind-Pune, while 50 °C was observed for H. vulgaris Naukuchiatal and sf-1 strains. The optimum pH for β-hexosaminidase was found to be 6.0 for H. vulgaris Ind-Pune and H. vulgaris Naukuchiatal, and 5.0 for sf-1. The optimum temperature and pH of acid phosphatase was similar in all three strains, viz., 40 °C and 3.0, respectively. Preliminary localization studies using whole mount in situ hybridization revealed predominant endodermal expression of three enzymes in H. vulgaris Ind-Pune. Our results thus support the conservation of lysosomal hydrolases in Hydra. | |
