The layout of this reaction may differ from that in the pathway view due to the constraints in pathway layout

Glucuronate and N-acetylglucosamine exit the lysosome into the cytosol, ready for reuse in GAG biosynthesis. The mechanism of translocation is unknown (for reviews see Stern 2004, Stern 2003).
