Human erythropoietin contains three Asn-type and one mucin-type sugar chains. That the branching structure of the outer portion of Asn-type sugar chains is correlated to its biological activity in vivo has been reported recently (Takeuchi, M., Inoue, N., Strickland, T. W., Kubota, M., Wada, M., Shimizu, R., Hoshi, S., Kozutsumi, H., Takasaki, S., and Kobata, A. (1989) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U. S. A. 86, 7819-7822). In this study, the effect of trimming of sugar chains on the biological activity in vitro of this hormone was examined by using several glycosidases. Human erythropoietin produced by recombinant Chinese hamster ovary cells showed three times higher activity after desialylation. The activity was not changed significantly by further removal of the mucin-type sugar chain from the hormone, indicating no contribution of this type of sugar chain to the activity of erythropoietin in vitro. Sequential removal of galactose and N-acetylglucosamine from the outer chain moieties of the desialylated Asn-type sugar chains raised the activity of the hormone up to four and five times the intact erythropoietin, respectively. The activation effect was diminished slightly by further removing alpha-mannosyl residues and to a great extent by removing beta-mannosyl residues from the core portions of the Asn-type sugar chains. N-Glycanase digestion of intact erythropoietin resulted in almost complete loss of the activity in vitro. These results indicate that the core portion of the Asn-type sugar chains is necessary for erythropoietin to express its full biological activity in vitro and suggest that removal of the core portion of the sugar chains destroys the active conformation of erythropoietin. 相似文献

The erythropoietin (EPO) molecule contains four carbohydrate chains. Three contain N-linkages to asparagines at positions 24, 38, and 83, and one contains an O-linkage to a serine at position 126. We constructed human EPO variants that eliminated the three N-glycosylation sites by replacing the asparagines with glutamines singly or in combination. The O-linked carbohydrate chain was removed by replacing the serine with glutamine, valine, histidine, or alanine. A variant with a double mutation (Gln38,83) and another with a triple mutation (Gln24,38,83) were secreted poorly from COS1 and CHO cells even though RNA encoding these variants was present. All other variants with mutations in N-linked glycosylation sites were secreted normally. Removal of any of the N-glycosylation sites reduced the in vivo but not the in vitro biological activity of the EPO molecule. All the mutations at Ser126, the O-glycosylation site, were secreted normally. In vitro activity was also unaffected except for Ala126 which had a 50-fold decrease. The Val126 variant was tested in vivo, and its specific activity was only slightly less than that of the native EPO, which indicates that the O-linked carbohydrate is not essential for activity. 相似文献

Various partially or fully desialylated human erythropoietins were obtained by neuraminidase digestion of the hormone, without non-specific proteolysis and degradation of carbohydrates. Asialoerythropoietin showed a specific activity of 220-IU/mg protein in vivo, although that of the intact erythropoietin was 2.2 x 10(5) IU/mg. A linear relationship was found between the logarithm of the specific activity in vivo and the number of sialic acids. The asialoerythropoietin showed a four-times-higher specific activity in vitro compared with intact erythropoietin using mouse bone marrow cells. It also showed an approximately six-times-higher specific activity in a colony-forming assay for the erythroid colony-forming unit and the erythroid burst-forming unit. Partially or fully de-N-glycosylated erythropoietin derivatives also showed lower in vivo activity but higher in vitro activity than the intact erythropoietin, dependent on the number of sialic acids. To clarify the reason for the enhanced biological activity of asialoerythropoietin in vitro, the binding of intact 125I-erythropoietin or 125I-asialoerythropoietin to cells containing specific receptors for the hormone was analyzed. 125I-asialoerythropoietin bound to spleen cells from anemic mice approximately five times faster than did intact 125I-erythropoietin. The amount of 125I-asialoerythropoietin internalized by target cells, measured in the absence of NaN3, was four times higher than that of intact erythropoietin. These results demonstrate that asialoerythropoietin binds to its receptor faster than the intact form. This may be the main reason for the increased activity of asialoerythropoietin in vitro. 相似文献

Human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) highly purified from urine of the patient with choriocarcinoma contains four asparagine-linked sugar chains in one molecule. The sugar chains were quantitatively liberated as radioactive oligosaccharides from polypeptide portion by hydrazinolysis followed by N-acetylation and NaB3H4 reduction. The structures of these sugar chains were determined by the combination of sequential glycosidase digestion, periodate oxidation, and methylation analysis. As compared with the sugar chains of normal urinary and placental hCG reported previously, they include several prominent structural differences. More than 97% of the sugar chains of choriocarcinoma hCG was free from sialic acid, while the sugar chains of normal hCG were mostly sialylated. Choriocarcinoma hCG contains unusual biantennary complex-type sugar chains in addition to regular tri-, bi-, and monoantennary sugar chains. These sugar chains have two outer chains linked at the C-2 and C-4 positions of the same alpha-mannosyl residue of the trimannosyl core. Since normal hCG does not contain any triantennary sugar chains, occurrence of Gal beta 1 leads to 4GlcNAc beta 1 leads to 4Man alpha 1 leads to group is another characteristic feature of the sugar chains of choriocarcinoma hCG. The evidence that the monoantennary sugar chain of Man alpha 1 leads to 6(Gal beta 1 leads to 4GlcNAc beta 1 leads to 2Man alpha 1 leads to 3)Man beta 1 leads to 4GlcNAc beta 1 leads to 4(Fuc alpha 1 leads to 6)GlcNAc leads to Asn is not found in normal hCG and the sum total of fucosylated sugar chains is 50%, which is twice as much as normal hCG, indicated that fucosylation is also modified in choriocarcinoma tissue. 相似文献

The asparagine-linked sugar chains of human chorionic gonadotropin were released from the polypeptide moiety by hydrazinolysis followed by N-acetylation and NaB3H4 reduction. More than 90% of the released radioactive oligosaccharides contained N-acetylneuraminic acid residues. After removal of N-acetylneuraminic acid residues by sialidase treatment, two neutral oligosaccharide fractions were obtained by paper chromatography. Sequential exoglycosidase digestion revealed that one of them was a mixture of two neutral oligosaccharides. The complete structures of the three oligosaccharides were elucidated by methylation analysis. It was confirmed that all the N-acetylneuraminic acid residues of the asparagine-linked sugar chains of human chorionic gonadotropin occur as NeuAc alpha 2 leads to 3Gal groupings by comparing the methylation analysis data for the acidic oligosaccharide mixture before and after sialidase treatment. Based on these results, the structures of the asparagine-linked sugar chains of human chorionic gonadotropin were confirmed to be +/- NeuAc alpha 2 leads to 3Gal beta 1 leads to 4GlcNAc beta 1 leads to 2Man alpha 1 leads to 6(NeuAc alpha 2 leads to 3Gal beta 1 leads to 4GlcNAc beta 1 leads to 2Man alpha 1 leads to 3)Man beta 1 leads to 4GlcNAc beta 1 leads to 4(+/- Fuc alpha 1 leads to 6)GlcNAc and Man alpha 1 leads to 6(NeuAc alpha 2 leads to 3 Gal beta 1 leads to 4 GlcNAc beta 1 leads to Man alpha 1 leads to 3)Man beta 1 leads to 4 GlcNAc beta 1 leads to 4GlcNAc. 相似文献

Erythropoietin (EPO) is a haemopoietic hormone specific to cells of erythroid lineage. EPO has recently become available for the treatment of anaemia as the first human recombinant biomedicine produced in heterologous mammalian cells. Human EPO is characterized by its large carbohydrate chains, which occupy close to 40% of its total mass. These sugar moieties were thought to be important for the biological activity of EPO, but detailed studies were not performed until the structures were elucidated. The variety of roles for the sugar chains were then immediately found once the structures were known. EPO is an excellent model for investigating the roles of sugar chains on glycoproteins, since its gene and its multiple glycoforms are available, as well as sensitive bioassays for testing. In this review, we will first summarize the known sugar chain structures of EPO from different host cells, and then discuss the host-cell dependent and peptide structure-dependent glycosylation of glycoproteins. We will then address how one investigates the roles of sugar chains of glycoproteins, show several examples of such investigations, and discuss the functional roles of HuEPO's sugar chains in its biosynthesis and secretion, its in vitro and in vivo biological activities, and its half-life in blood circulation. 相似文献

Physicochemical and biological properties of recombinant human erythropoietin (rhEPO) were compared with human urinary erythropoietin (uEPO). uEPO and rhEPO were purified to apparent homogeneity from the urine of patients with aplastic anemia and from the conditioned medium of Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells transfected with a cDNA clone for human EPO, respectively. The microheterogeneous nature of both factors, observed on isoelectric focusing, is derived from the difference of the number of terminal sialic acid residues bound to the carbohydrate chains of the EPO molecule. The primary structure of rhEPO, consisting of 165 amino acid residues, was determined, and the C-terminal arginine predicted from the cDNA sequence was confirmed to be missing, as described previously (Recny et al. (1987) J. Biol. Chem. 262, 17156). Three N-glycosylation and one O-glycosylation sites of both factors were determined as Asn24, Asn38, and Asn83 and Ser126, respectively. Two disulfide linkages are located between Cys7 and Cys161, and between Cys29 and Cys33, in both EPOs. Hematogenic potencies of rhEPO and uEPO compared in normal and in partially nephrectomized rats were approximately the same. Both factors also stimulated the colony formation of CFU-E, BFU-E, and CFU-Meg in a dose-dependent manner. From these results, it is concluded that rhEPO produced in CHO cells transfected with cDNA clone for human EPO is indistinguishable from uEPO physicochemically and biologically, and is valuable for further research and for clinical use. 相似文献

Alterations of the C-terminal amino acid sequence of recombinant human interleukin 5 (rhIL-5) caused significant changes in its biological activity. Removal of eight amino acids from the C-terminus of rhIL-5 by CNBr treatment led to a complete loss of biological activity as determined by the BCL1 cell IgM-inducing assay. Oxidation of Met residue located at C-terminus also resulted in a loss of activity. These results suggest that the C-terminal amino acids of rhIL-5 are crucial for its biological actions. 相似文献

Human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) purified from placenta, like urinary hCG, is shown to have the sialylated forms of three neutral oligosaccharides: Galβ1→4GlcNAcβ1→2Manα1→6(Galβ1→4GlcNAcβ1→2Manα1→3)Manβ1→4GlcNAcβ1→4(Fucα1→6)GlcNAc (N-1), Galβ1→4GlcNAcβ1→2Manα1→6(Galβ1→4GlcNAcβ1→2Manα1→3)Manβ1→4GlcNAcβ1→4GlcNAc (N-2) and Manα1→6(Galβ1→4GlcNAcβ1→2Manα1→3)Manβ1→4GlcNAcβ1→4GlcNAc (N-3). Gel permeation chromatographic analysis of oligosaccharides released from α- and β-subunits of placental hCG has revealed that the α-subunit has one each of sialylated N-2 and N-3, while the β-subunit has one each of sialylated N-1 and N-2. 相似文献

gamma-Glutamyltranspeptidase purified from human kidneys contains 4-5 asparagine-linked sugar chains in each molecule. The sugar chains were released from the polypeptide portion of the enzyme by hydrazinolysis as oligosaccharides and separated by paper electrophoresis into one neutral and two acidic fractions. By sequential exoglycosidase digestion and methylation analysis, the neutral fraction, which comprised 69% of total oligosaccharides, was shown to be a mixture of bisected bi- and triantennary complex-type sugar chains with and without a fucose on the proximal N-acetylglucosamine residue and with Gal beta 1----4GlcNAc and/or Gal beta 1----4(Fuc alpha 1----3)GlcNAc groups in their outer chain moieties. The acidic oligosaccharide fractions were mixtures of mono- and disialyl derivatives of bisected triantennary complex-type oligosaccharides with Gal beta 1----4GlcNAc and/or Gal beta 1----4(Fuc alpha 1----3)GlcNAc group in their outer chain moieties. Some of the outer chains of the acidic oligosaccharides were considered to be sialylated X-antigenic structures. 相似文献

The asparagine-linked sugar chains of human follicle-stimulating hormone (hFSH) were liberated as radioactive oligosaccharides from the polypeptide moiety by hydrazinolysis followed by N-acetylation and NaB3H4 reduction. Ninety-five percent of the oligosaccharides were acidic and all were converted to a mixture of neutral oligosaccharides on sialidase treatment. The mixture of neutral oligosaccharides was subjected to sequential immobilized lectin column chromatography on E-PHA-agarose, AAL-Sepharose, and Con A-Sepharose, and six fractions were obtained. The results of sequential exoglycosidase digestion of each oligosaccharide and methylation analysis led us to propose that the asparagine-linked sugar chains of hFSH are a mixture of complex-type bi-, tri-, and tetraantennary sialylated sugar chains with and without a fucose residue linked at the C-6 position of the proximal N-acetylglucosamine. Some of these sugar chains contain bisecting N-acetylglucosamine residue. 相似文献

The sugar chains of human urinary thrombomodulin were studied. N- and O-linked sugar chains were simultaneously liberated by hydrazinolysis followed by N-acetylation and were tagged with 2-aminopyridine. Then the structures of the N- and O-linked pyridylamino (PA-) sugar chains were analyzed by two-dimensional sugar mapping combined with exoglycosidase digestion. The major N-linked sugar chains of human urinary thrombomodulin were found to be monosialo- and disialofucosylbiantennary chains, while the major O-linked sugar chain was +/-Siaalpha2-3Galbeta1-3(+/-Siaalpha2-6)GalNAc. Thrombomodulin also contained the reported structure SO4-3GlcAbeta1-3Galbeta1-3(+/-Siaalpha2-6)Galbeta1-4Xyl [H. Wakabayashi, S. Natsuka, T. Mega, N. Otsuki, M. Isaji, M. Naotsuka, S. Koyama, T. Kanamori, K. Sakai, and S. Hase (1999) J. Biol. Chem. 274, 5436-5442]. In addition to these sugar chains, a single Glc was linked to Ser 287. 相似文献

The asparagine-linked sugar chains of human platelet thrombospondin were released as oligosaccharides by hydrazinolysis. About 12 mol of sugar chains was released from one thrombospondin molecule. This was converted to radioactive oligosaccharides by sodium borotritide reduction after N-acetylation, and separated into one neutral and four acidic fractions by paper electrophoresis. More than 90% of the oligosaccharides were recovered in the acidic fraction. The acidic oligosaccharides were mostly converted to neutral oligosaccharides by sialidase treatment, indicating that they are sialyl derivatives. The neutral and sialidase-treated acidic oligosaccharides were further fractionated by Bio-Gel P-4 column chromatography. Structural study of each oligosaccharide by sequential exoglycosidase digestion and methylation analysis revealed that the thrombospondin contains mono-, bi-, tri-, and tetraantennary complex-type sugar chains in addition to a small amount of high-mannose type. Approximately 70% of the complex-type sugar chains was fucosylated at asparagine-linked N-acetylglucosamine residue and 19% of the biantennary complex-type sugar chains was bisected. 相似文献

Human rhodopsin is a glycoprotein containing two N-linked sugarchains. After the isolation and purification of rhodop-sinsfrom human retinas, structural studies of their N-linked sugarchains were performed. The sugar moieties, quantitatively releasedas ollgosaccharides from the polypeptide backbone by hydrazmolysis,were converted to radioactive oligosaccharides by reductionwith NaB3H4 after N-acetylation. As indicated by high-voltagepaper electrophoresis, 96% of the sugar chains were free ofsialic add and the remaining were sialylated derivatives. Structuralstudies of each oligosaccharide by lectin affinity column chromatography,and sequential exoglycosidase digestion in combination withmethylation analysis, revealed that almost all of the oligosaccharideswere hybrid-type sugar chains. While the major oligosaccharidespecies of bovine and human rhodopsin are identical, in contrastto the sugar chains of bovine rhodopsin, human rhodopsin alsocontains sialylated isomers and a high concentration of a galactosylatedisomer. These results suggest that species-specific processingof the sugar chains of rhodopsin occurs. galactosylation human rhodopsin hybrid-type sugar chain N-linked oligosaecharide 相似文献

Human parotid amylase can be separated into three families of isoenzymes (A', A, and B) by Sephadex G-75 column chromatography. Isoenzymes in family B were free from carbohydrate, while those in family A were all glycoproteins. The carbohydrate moieties of family A isoenzymes were released from their polypeptide portions by hydrazinolysis and labeled by reduction with NaB[3H]4. The yield of total radioactive oligosaccharides indicated that family A isoenzymes all contain single asparagine-linked sugar chains in one molecule. The radioactive oligosaccharides were fractionated into one acidic and two neutral oligosaccharide fractions by paper electrophoresis and paper chromatography. By sequential exoglycosidase digestion in combination with a methylation study, their structures were determined to be: Gal beta 1 leads to 4 (Fuc alpha 1 leads to 3)GlcNAc beta 1 leads to 2Man alpha 1 leads to 6[Gal beta 1 leads to 4(Fuc alpha 1 leads to 3)GlcNAc beta 1 leads to 2Man alpha 1 leads to 3]Man beta 1 leads to 4GlcNAc beta 1 leads to 4(Fuc alpha 1 leads to 6)GlcNAc Gal beta 1 leads to 4(Fuc alpha 1 leads to 3)GlcNAc beta 1 leads to 2Man alpha 1 leads to 6 and 3[Gal beta 1 leads to 4 GlcNAc beta 1 leads to 2Man alpha 1 leads to 3 and 6]Man beta 1 leads to 4GlcNAc beta 1 leads to 4(Fuc alpha 1 leads to 6)GlcNAc Gal beta 1 leads to 4(Fuc alpha 1 leads to 3) GlcNAc beta 1 leads to 2Man alpha 1 leads to 6 (NeuAc alpha 2 leads to 6Gal beta 1 leads to 4GlcNAc beta 1 leads to 2Man alpha 1 leads to 3)Man beta 1 leads to 4GlcNAc beta 1 leads to 4(Fuc alpha 1 leads to 6)GlcNAc. 相似文献

Role of leucine residues in the C-terminal region of human interleukin-6 in the biological activity.

Site-directed mutagenesis of two sets of three periodic leucine residues which appear at every seventh position in the C-terminal region of human interleukin-6 (IL-6) was performed. Both receptor-binding and immunoglobulin (Ig)-induction activities of a triple mutant Leu168,175,182-->Val were only 1% compared with those of wild-type IL-6. However, the mutant Leu152,159,166-->Val had 13% receptor-binding and 2% Ig-induction activities of those of wild-type IL-6. In order to obtain more direct information on the receptor-binding region, we prepared two synthetic peptides. A significant binding activity was observed for the peptide Leu168-Met185, but not for the peptide Leu152-Arg169. These results indicate that leucine residues in the C-terminal region, especially Leu168, Leu175, and Leu182, play an important role in the receptor-binding and Ig-induction activities. 相似文献
