From 10 patients with carbohydrate-deficient glycoprotein (CDG) syndrome due to phosphomannomutase (PMM) deficiency, out of 10 lysosomal enzymes, 7 enzyme activities were measured in serum and 9 in leukocytes. In serum there was a 2-fold to 4-fold increase in activity of beta-glucuronidase, beta-hexosaminidase, beta-galactosidase, and arylsulphatase A. In leukocytes, however, several enzymes had reduced activity, particularly alpha-fucosidase, beta-glucuronidase and alpha-mannosidase. These abnormalities could result from missorting, defective reuptake and/or reduced stability of the enzymes due to the defective glycosylation.

The activity of beta-hexosaminidase, determined with 4-methylumbelliferyl-beta-N-acetylglucopyranoside substrate, and of beta-D-mannosidase was significantly higher in the serum of patients with carbohydrate-deficient glycoprotein (CDG) syndrome type IA (phosphomannomutase deficiency) than in controls. No significant differences were observed in the activity of beta-hexosaminidase, determined using 4-methylumbelliferyl-beta-N-acetylglucopyranoside-6-sulphate as substrate, and the activity of alpha-D-mannosidase. Using DEAE-cellulose chromatography, a greater amount of hexosaminidase B than hexosaminidase A was detected in CDG serum. In CDG serum, hexosaminidase A was eluted in a more basic position in the salt gradient. An isoenzyme of alpha-D-mannosidase and beta-D-mannosidase was identified in control and CDG sera. alpha-D-Mannosidase isoenzyme was eluted in a slightly more basic position in CDG serum than in control serum, whereas beta-D-mannosidase isoenzyme was eluted in the same position.
