Biosynthesis of the c-series gangliosides GT3, GT2 and GP1c was studied in Golgi derived from rat liver. Competition experiments show that the synthesis of ganglioside GT2 (GalNAc beta 1----4-(NeuAc alpha 2----8NeuAc alpha 2----8NeuAc alpha 2----3)Gal- beta 1----4Glc beta 1----1Cer) from GT3 (NeuAc alpha 2----8NeuAc alpha 2----8-NeuAc alpha 2----3Gal beta 1----4Glc beta 1----1Cer) seems to be catalysed by the same N-acetylgalactosaminyl-transferase (GalNAc-T), which converts GM3 (NeuAc alpha 2----3Gal beta 1----4Glc beta 1----1Cer) to GM2 (GalNAc beta 1----4(NeuAc alpha 2----3)Gal beta 1----4Glc beta 1----1Cer). Similar competition experiments suggest moreover that the sialytransferase V (SAT V), which catalyses the synthesis of GT1a (NeuAc alpha 2----8NeuAc alpha 2----3Gal beta 1----3GalNAc beta 1----4- (NeuAc alpha 2----3)-Gal beta 1----4Glc beta 1----1Cer) from GD1a (NeuAc alpha-2----3Gal beta 1----3GalNAc beta 1----4(NeuAc alpha 2----3)Gal beta 1----4Glc beta 1----1-Cer) appears to be identical to the enzyme that catalyses the synthesis of GP1c (NeuAc alpha 2----8NeuAc alpha 2----3Gal beta 1----3-GalNAc beta 1----4(NeuAc alpha 2----8-NeuAc alpha 2----8NeuAc alpha 2----3)Gal beta-1----4Glc beta 1----4Glc beta 1----1Cer) from GQ1c (NeuAc alpha 2----3Gal beta 1----3Gal-NAc beta 1----4 (NeuAc alpha 2----8NeuAc alpha 2----8NeuAc alpha 2----3)Gal beta 1----4-Glc beta 1----1Cer).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

The susceptibility of a variety of oligosaccharides to endo-beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase D was investigated. The oligosaccharides having the structures of Man alpha 1----6 (GlcNAc beta 1----4Man alpha 1----3)Man beta 1----4GlcNAc beta 1----4(+/- Fuc alpha 1----6)GlcNAcOT, derived from complex type triantennary sugar chains, released +/- Fuc alpha 1----6GlcNAcOT upon incubation with the enzyme at almost the same rate as Man alpha 1----6(Man alpha 1----3)Man beta 1----4GlcNAc beta 1----4GlcNAcOT. When the reaction products were reduced with NaB3H4 and analyzed by Bio-Gel P-4 column chromatography, a new radioactive peak was detected in both cases. This new radioactive oligosaccharide was confirmed to be Man alpha 1----6(GlcNAc beta 1----4Man alpha 1----3)Man beta 1----4GlcNAcOT in the former case and Man alpha 1----6(Man alpha 1----3)Man beta 1----4GlcNAcOT in the latter. These results indicated that endo-beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase D does not require the presence of a free hydroxyl group at the C-4 position of the alpha-mannosyl residue of the trisaccharide glycon: Man alpha 1----3Man beta 1----4GlcNAc beta 1----. 相似文献

The structure of sialylated carbohydrate units of bronchial mucins obtained from cystic fibrosis patients was investigated by 500-MHz 1H NMR spectroscopy in conjunction with sugar analysis. After subjecting the mucins to alkaline borohydride degradation, sialylated oligosaccharide-alditols were isolated by anion-exchange chromatography and fractionated by high performance liquid chromatography. Five compounds could be obtained in a rather pure state; their structures were established as the following: A-1, NeuAc alpha(2----3)Gal beta(1----4) [Fuc alpha(1----3)]GlcNAc beta(1----3)Gal-NAc-ol; A-2, NeuAc alpha(2----3)Gal beta(1----4)GlcNAc beta(1----6)-[GlcNAc beta (1----3)]GalNAc-o1; A-3, NeuAc alpha(2----3)Gal beta-(1----4)[Fuc alpha(1----3)]GlcNAc beta(1----3)Gal beta(1----3) GalNAc-o1; A-4, NeuAc alpha(2----3)Gal beta(1----4)[Fuc alpha(1----3)]Glc-NAc NAc beta(1----6)[GlcNAc beta(1----3)]GalNAc-o1; A-6,NeuAc alpha-(2----3) Gal beta(1----4)[Fuc alpha(1----3)]GlcNAc beta(1----6)[Gal beta-(1----4) GlcNAc beta(1----3)]GalNAc-o1. The simultaneous presence of sialic acid in alpha(2----3)-linkage to Gal and fucose in alpha(1----3)-linkage to GlcNAc of the same N-acetyllactosamine unit could be adequately proved by high resolution 1H NMR spectroscopy. This sequence constitutes a novel structural element for mucins. 相似文献

Glycoprotein 71 from Friend murine leukemia virus was digested with proteases and the glycopeptides obtained were isolated and assigned, by amino acid sequencing, to the eight N-glycosylated asparagines in the molecule; only Asn334 and Asn341 could not be separated. The oligosaccharides liberated from each glycopeptide by endo-beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase H, or by peptide-N4-(N-acetyl-beta-glucosaminyl)asparagine amidase F, were fractionated and subjected to structural analysis by one- and two-dimensional 1H NMR, as well as by methylation/gas-liquid-chromatography/mass-fragmentography. At each glycosylation site, the substituents were found to be heterogeneous including, at Asn334/341 and Asn410, substitution by different classes of N-glycans: oligomannosidic oligosaccharides, mainly Man alpha 1----6(Man alpha 1----3)Man alpha 1----6(Man alpha 1----3)Man beta 1----4GlcNAc beta 1----4GlcNAc beta 1----, were detected at Asn168, Asn334/341 and Asn410. Hybrid species, partially sialylated, intersected and (proximally) funcosylated Man alpha 1----6(Man alpha 1----3)Man alpha 1----6 and Man alpha 1----3Man alpha 1----6 and Man alpha 1----3Man alpha 1----6(Gal beta 1----4GlcNAc beta 1----2Man alpha 1----3)Man beta 1----4GlcNAc beta 1----4GlcNAc beta 1----, were found at Asn12, as previously published [Schlüter, M., Linder, D., Geyer, R., Hunsmann, H., Schneider, J. & Stirm, S. (1984) FEBS Lett. 169, 194-198] and at Asn334/341. N-Acetyllactosaminic glycans, mainly partially intersected and fucosylated NeuAc alpha 2----3 or Gal alpha 1----3Gal beta 1----4GlcNAc beta 1----2Man alpha 1----6(NeuAc alpha 2----6 or NeuAc alpha 2----3Gal-beta 1----4GlcNAc beta 1----2Man alpha 1----3)Man beta 1----4GlcNac beta 1----4GlcNAc beta 1---- with some bifurcation at ----6Man alpha 1----6, were obtained from Asn266, Asn302, Asn334/341, Asn374 and Asn410. In addition, Thr268, Thr277, Thr279, Thr304/309, as well as Ser273 and Ser275, were found to be O-glycosidically substituted by Gal beta 1----3GalNAc alpha 1----, monosialylated or desialylated at position 3 of Gal or/and position 6 of GalNAc. 相似文献

Purification and characterization of a novel alpha-mannosidase from Aspergillus saitoi 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
An alpha-mannosidase differing from 1,2-alpha-mannosidase was found to occur in Aspergillus saitoi. By a series of column chromatographies the enzyme was purified up to 1,000-fold, and its properties were studied in detail. The enzyme preparation, which was practically free from other exoglycosidases, showed a pH optimum of 5.0. In contrast to 1,2-alpha-mannosidase, the enzyme was strongly activated by Ca2+ ions. p-Nitrophenyl alpha-mannopyranoside was not hydrolyzed by the enzyme. Accordingly, the substrate specificity of the new alpha-mannosidase was studied by using a variety of tritium-labeled oligosaccharides. Studies with linear oligosaccharides revealed that the enzyme cleaves the Man alpha 1----3Man linkage more than 10 times faster than the Man alpha 1----6Man and the Man alpha 1----2Man linkages. Furthermore, it cleaves the Man alpha 1----6Man linkage of the Man alpha 1----6(Man alpha 1----3)Man beta 1----4GlcNAc beta 1----4GlcNAcOT only after its Man alpha 1----3 residue is removed. Because of this specificity, the enzyme can be used as an effective reagent to discriminate R----Man alpha 1----6(Man alpha 1----3)Man beta 1----4GlcNAc beta 1----4(+/- Fuc alpha 1----6)GlcNAcOT from its isomeric counterparts, Man alpha 1----6(R----Man alpha 1----3)Man beta 1----4GlcNAc beta 1----4(+/- Fuc alpha 1----6)GlcNAcOT, in which R represents sugars. 相似文献

Glycoprotein MII2, the major cell surface glycoprotein (molecular mass 110 kDa) of Zajdela hepatoma ascites cells, contains about 25 O-glycosidic oligosaccharide chains per molecule. They were released as oligosaccharide-alditols by alkaline borohydride treatment of MII2, and purified by gel filtration on Bio-Gel P-6 followed by high-voltage paper electrophoresis. Four oligosaccharide-alditol fractions (A-D) were obtained in relative yields of 8:6:3:3. The structure of the components of fractions A-C was determined by 500-MHz 1H-NMR spectroscopy in combination with sugar composition analysis, to be as follows. (A) NeuAc alpha(2----3)Gal beta(1----3)[NeuAc alpha(2----3)Gal beta(1----4)GlcNAc beta(1----6)]GalNAc-ol; (B1) NeuAc alpha(2----3)Gal beta(1----3)[Gal beta(1----4)GlcNAc beta(1----6)]GalNAc-ol; (B2) Gal beta(1----3)[NeuAc alpha(2----3)Gal beta(1----4)GlcNAc beta(1----6)]GalNAc-ol; (C) NeuAc alpha(2----3)Gal beta(1----3)GalNAc-ol. On the basis of sugar composition and characteristics on Bio-Gel P-6 filtration, paper electrophoresis and thin-layer chromatography, the structure of the carbohydrate component of fraction D is proposed to be as follows.

Structural variations of O-linked oligosaccharides present in leukosialin isolated from erythroid, myeloid, and T-lymphoid cell lines 总被引:13,自引:0,他引:13
Structures of O-linked oligosaccharides of leukosialin isolated from K562 erythroid, HL-60 promyelocytic, and HSB-2 T-lymphoid cell lines were examined. Leukosialin was isolated by specific immunoprecipitation from cells which were metabolically labeled with [3H]glucosamine, and glycopeptides were isolated after Pronase digestion. O-Linked oligosaccharides were released by alkaline borohydride treatment, and the structures of purified oligosaccharides were elucidated by specific exoglycosidase digestion, Smith degradation, and methylation anaylsis. Oligosaccharides from K562 cells were found to be GalNAcOH, Gal beta 1----3GalNAcOH, NeuNAc alpha 2----6GalNAcOH, NeuNAc alpha 2----3Gal beta 1----3GalNAcOH, Gal beta 1----3(NeuNAc alpha 2----6)GalNAcOH, and NeuNAc alpha 2----3Gal beta 1----3(NeuNAc alpha 2----6)GalNAcOH. On the other hand, oligosaccharides from HL-60 and HSB-2 cells were found to be NeuNAc alpha 2----3Gal beta 1----3GalNAcOH, NeuNAc alpha 2----3Gal beta 1----4GlcNAc beta 1----6(Gal beta 1----3)GalNAcOH, Gal beta 1----4GlcNAc beta 1----6(NeuNAc alpha 2----3)Gal beta 1----3)GalNAcOH, and NeuNAc alpha 2----3Gal beta 1----4GlcNAc beta 1----6(NeuNAc alpha 2----3Gal beta 1----3)GalNAcOH. These results clearly indicate that leukosialin can be differently glycosylated with O-linked chains, and each erythroid or myeloid (and T-lymphoid) cell line expresses a characteristic set of O-linked oligosaccharides which differ in core structures as well as in sialylation. 相似文献

Asparagine-linked sugar chains of fetuin: occurrence of tetrasialyl triantennary sugar chains containing the Gal beta 1----3GlcNAc sequence 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Asparagine-linked sugar chains were quantitatively released from fetuin by hydrazinolysis. Structural analysis of the sugar chains by sequential exoglycosidase digestion in combination with methylation analysis and Smith degradation revealed that most of them have typical biantennary (8%) and triantennary (74%) structures containing different amounts of N-acetylneuraminic acid residues. In addition, an unusual tetrasialyl triantennary sugar chain (17%) containing the Gal beta 1----3GlcNAc sequence in the outer chain moiety was detected, and its structure was elucidated as NeuAc alpha 2----3Gal beta 1----3(NeuAc alpha 2----6)-GlcNAc beta 1----4(NeuAc alpha 2----6Gal beta 1----4GlcNAc beta 1----2)Man alpha 1----3(NeuAc alpha 2----3Gal beta 1----4GlcNAc beta 1----2Man alpha 1----6)Man beta 1----4GlcNAc beta 1----4GlcNAc. 相似文献

Structure of the phosphosaccharide-inositol core of the Leishmania donovani lipophosphoglycan 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9

The phosphosaccharide-inositol core of the lipophosphoglycan of Leishmania donovani was generated by treatment of the glycoconjugate with mild acid and digestion with phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C. The core was purified and examined by one- and two-dimensional 1H-1H NMR and by methylation analysis. From the results, the carbohydrate core was elucidated as a phosphosaccharide attached to the inositol residue of the lyso-alkylphosphatidylinositol anchor of lipophosphoglycan as follows: PO4----6GalP(alpha 1----6)GalP(alpha 1----3)Galf(alpha 1----3)ManP(alpha 1----3)ManP(alpha 1----4)GlcNP(alpha 1----6)myo-inositol. The presence of an internal galactofuranose residue is highly unusual and the ManP(alpha 1----4)GlcNP(alpha 1----6)myo-inositol sequence is homologous to the respective portion of the glycosylphosphatidylinositol anchors reported for both the Trypanosoma brucei variant surface glycoprotein and the rat brain Thy-1 glycoprotein. 相似文献

Biosynthetic pathways for the Leb and Y glycolipids in the gastric carcinoma cell line KATO III as analyzed by a novel assay 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

The biosynthetic pathways for the difucosylated type 1 and 2 glycolipids, Leb and Y, respectively, were investigated in the gastric carcinoma cell line KATO III, using a novel chromatogram binding assay. The type of fucosylation obtained was deduced from the binding pattern of monoclonal antibodies specific for the biosynthesized glycolipid products using microsomal fractions as the source of enzyme, pure glycolipids and non-radioactive GDP-fucose as acceptor and donor substrates, respectively. The Leb glycolipid (Fuc alpha 1----2Gal beta 1----3GlcNAc(4----1 alpha Fuc) beta 1----3LacCer) was synthesized mainly via the blood group H, type 1, precursor (Fuc alpha 1----2Gal beta 1----3GlcNAc beta 1----3LacCer). However, the Lea glycolipid (Gal beta 1----3GlcNAc(4----1 alpha Fuc)beta 1----3LacCer) also served as a precursor for the alpha 1----2 fucosyltransferase, thus allowing conversion of Lea to Leb. This biosynthetic route represents either an "aberrant" specificity of the Fuc alpha 1----2 transferase associated with these gastric carcinoma cells and/or a new member of the alpha 1----2 fucosyltransferase family. The Y glycolipid (Fuc alpha 1----2Gal beta 1----4GlcNAc(3----1 alpha Fuc)beta 1----3LacCer) was synthesized exclusively via the classical pathway using the blood group H type 2 glycolipid (Fuc alpha 1----2Gal beta 1----4GlcNAc beta 1----3LacCer) as precursor. The X glycolipid (Gal beta 1----4GlcNAc(3----1 alpha Fuc)beta 1----3LacCer) did not serve as an acceptor substrate for the alpha 1----2 fucosyltransferase(s) present. The use of non-radioactive sugar-nucleotides as donor substrate, defined glycolipid precursors as acceptor substrates and of specific monoclonal anti-glycolipid antibodies for detection provides a rapid and highly specific assay for analyzing biosynthetic pathways of glycosyltransferases. 相似文献

A number of gangliosides were isolated from cat and sheep erythrocytes for use in analyzing the specificity of a panel of human anti-heterophile monoclonal antibodies. The structures of these compounds were determined by a combination of different procedures, including sugar analysis, glycosidase treatment, periodate oxidation, TLC immunostaining, methylation analysis, and mass spectrometry. These methods identified the cat erythrocytes gangliosides (C1 and C2) as N-glycolylneuraminic acid (NeuGc)-containing hematosides; C1 was shown to be NeuGc alpha 2----8NeuGc alpha 2----3Gal beta I----4Glc-Cer [NeuGc)2GD3) and C2 to be NeuAc alpha 2----8NeuGc alpha 2----3Gal beta 1----4Glc-Cer [NeuAc-NeuGc-)GD3). The two sheep gangliosides (S1 and S2) were found to be novel glycolipids based on the paragloboside sequence; S1 was identified as NeuGc alpha 2----8NeuGc alpha 2----3Gal beta 1----4GlcNAc beta 1----3Gal beta 1----4Glc-Cer [NeuGc)2-disialylparagloboside) and S2 as NeuAc alpha 2----8NeuGc alpha 2----3Gal beta 1----4GlcNAc beta 1----3Gal beta 1----4Glc-Cer [NeuAc-NeuGc-)-disialylparagloboside). Structural analysis of these compounds was aided by the use of 252Cf fission fragment ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry. This method provided easily interpretable spectra on methylated derivatives which were particularly useful in determining the sialic acid composition of the gangliosides and the sequence of their disialosyl side chains. 相似文献

The complete structure of oligosaccharides from locust lipophorin was studied. The asparagine-linked oligosaccharides were first liberated from the protein moiety of lipophorin by digestion with almond glycopeptidase (N-oligosaccharide glycopeptidase, EC 3.5.1.52). Two major oligosaccharides (E and F), separated by subsequent thin-layer chromatography, were analyzed by methylation analysis and 1H-NMR. Based on the experimental data, the whole structure of oligosaccharide E was identified as Man alpha 1----2Man alpha 1----6(Man alpha 1----2Man alpha 1----3) Man alpha 1----6(Man alpha 1----2Man alpha 1----2Man alpha 1----3)Man beta 1----4GlcNAc beta 1----4GlcNAc. The data also revealed that oligosaccharide F is identical with oligosaccharide E in the structure, except for one glucose residue that is linked to the nonreducing terminal Man alpha 1----2 residue. 相似文献

Incubation of honeybee (Apis mellifica) venom-gland extracts with GDP-[14C]fucose and GlcNAc beta 1----2Man alpha 1----6(GlcNAc beta 1----2Man alpha 1----3)Man beta 1----4GlcNAc beta 1----4(Fuc alpha 1----6)GlcNAc beta 1----N-Asn-peptide(NAc) gave a labeled product in 40% yield. Analysis by 500-MHz 1H-NMR spectroscopy indicated the transferred fucose-(Fuc) residue to be alpha 1----3-linked to the Asn-bound GlcNAc. Further proof was provided by one-dimensional and two-dimensional 1H-NMR analysis of the incubation mixture, after incubation with beta-N-acetylhexosaminidase. The established carbohydrate structure (formula; see text) proves the existence of a novel alpha 1----3-fucosyltransferase with the ability to effect difucosylation of the Asn-bound GlcNAc in N-glycans. 相似文献

Structures of the sugar chains of mouse immunoglobulin G 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
The asparagine-linked sugar chains of mouse immunoglobulin G (IgG) were quantitatively liberated as radioactive oligosaccharides from the polypeptide portions by hydrazinolysis followed by N-acetylation, and NaB3H4 reduction. After fractionation by paper electrophoresis, lectin (RCA120) affinity high-performance liquid chromatography, and gel filtration, their structures were studied by sequential exoglycosidase digestion in combination with methylation analysis. Mouse IgG was shown to contain the biantennary complex type sugar chains. Eight neutral oligosaccharide structures, viz, +/- Gal beta 1----4GlcNAc beta 1----2Man alpha 1----6(+/- Gal beta 1---- 4GlcNAc beta 1----2Man alpha 1----3)Man beta 1----4GlcNAc beta 1----4(+/- Fuc alpha 1----6)GlcNAc, were found after the sialidase treatment. The molar ratio of the sugar chains with 2,1, and 0 galactose residues was 2:5:3. The galactose residue in the monogalactosylated sugar chains was distributed on Man alpha 1----3 and Man alpha 1----6 sides in the ratio of 1:3. The oligosaccharides were almost wholly fucosylated and contained no bisecting N-acetylglucosamine which is present in human, rabbit, and bovine IgGs. 相似文献

Sulfated N-linked carbohydrate chains in porcine thyroglobulin 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
N-linked carbohydrate chains of porcine thyroglobulin were released by the hydrazinolysis procedure. The resulting mixture of oligosaccharide-alditols was fractionated by high-voltage paper electrophoresis, the acidic fractions were further separated by high-performance liquid chromatography on Lichrosorb-NH2, and analyzed by 500-MHz 1H-NMR spectroscopy and, partially, by permethylation analysis. Of the acidic oligosaccharide-alditols, the following sulfated carbohydrate chains could be identified: NeuAc alpha 2----6Gal beta 1----4GlcNAc beta 1----2Man alpha 1----3[(SO3Na----3)Gal beta 1----4GlcNAc beta1----2-Mana alpha 1----6]Man beta 1----4GlcNAc beta 1----4[Fuc alpha 1----6]GlcNAc-ol and NeuAc alpha 2----6Gal beta 1----4(SO3Na----)0-1 GlcNAc beta 1----2-Man alpha 1----3[NeuAc alpha 2----6Gal beta 1----4(SO3Na----6)1-0GlcNAc beta 1----2Man alpha 1----6]Man beta 1----4GlcNAc beta 1----4[Fuc alpha 1----6]GlcNAc- ol. The sulfated structural elements for porcine thyroglobulin form novel details of N-linked carbohydrate chains. They contribute to the fine structure of these oligosaccharides and are another type of expression of microheterogeneity. 相似文献

Poly-N-acetyllactosamines were prepared from Ehrlich carcinoma cells cultured in the presence of [14C]galactose. Methylation analysis indicated that 31% of the galactose was in the non-reducing end. Of it, 77% was cleaved by alpha-galactosidase, and 56% was released as a disaccharide by endo-beta-galactosidase C. Methylation analysis confirmed that the released disaccharide was mostly Gal alpha 1----3Gal. Therefore, Gal alpha 1----3Gal structure, not Gal alpha 1----3(Gal alpha 1----6)Gal structure, was the major alpha-galactosyl structure in the poly-N-acetyllactosamines synthesized. Furthermore, alpha-galactosidase digestion did not change the content of disubstituted galactosyl residues. Thus, Gal alpha 1----3(Gal alpha 1----6)Gal structure, which was suggested to be the sole non-reducing terminal structure of poly-N-acetyllactosamines of Ehrlich carcinoma cells, was not detected in significant amounts under the present experimental conditions. 相似文献

Polysialoglycoproteins (PSGP) we first isolated from the unfertilized eggs of rainbow trout (Salmo gairderi) and now found to be a ubiquitous component of Salmonidae fish eggs are a novel type of glycoprotein. PSGP from rainbow trout has a molecular weight of 200 X 10(3), a low protein content (about 15% w/w), and a high sialic acid (N-glycolylneuraminic acid (NeuGc] content (about 60%, w/w). In any evaluation of the biological functions of PSGP, information about the complete structure of this unique macromolecular component is relevant. We have now completed the determination of the overall structural organization of the 200-kDa PSGP, and this is the first report of the complete structural analysis of this novel class of glycoprotein: (Asp)0-2-Ala-Thr*-Ser*-Glu-(Ala-Ala-Thr*-Gly-Pro-Ser-Gly-Asp-Asp-Ala-Thr *-Ser*- Glu)n-Ala-Ala-Thr*-Gly-Pro-Ser-Gly where * indicates the amino acid residues to which oligo- and/or polysialylglycan units are attached and n = 25. Thus the most outstanding structural features of PSGP isolated from the unfertilized eggs of rainbow trout are now the occurrence of (a) tandem repeats of a tridecapeptide and (b) an alpha-2----8-linked oligo(poly)sialyl group on each of the core oligosaccharide chains, i.e. GalNAc- beta 1----4(NeuGc alpha 2----3)GalNAc beta 1----3Gal beta 1----4Gal beta 1----3[----8NeuGc alpha 2)n----6)GalNAc alpha 1----Ser (or Thr), Fuc alpha 1----3GalNAc beta 1----3Gal beta 1----4Gal beta 1----3[----8NeuGc alpha 2)n ----6)GalNAc alpha 1----Ser (or Thr), GalNAc beta 1----3Gal beta 1----4Gal beta 1----3[----8NeuGc alpha 2)n----6)GalNAc alpha 1----Ser (or Thr), Gal beta 1----4Gal beta 1----3[----8NeuGc alpha 2)n----6)GalNAc alpha 1----Ser (or Thr), and Gal beta 1----3[----8NeuGc alpha 2)n----6) GalNAc alpha 1----Ser (or Thr). 相似文献

Rat liver Golgi apparatus are shown to have a CMP-N-acetylneuraminate: N-acetylglucosaminide (alpha 2----6)-sialyltransferase which catalyzes the conversion of the human milk oligosaccharide LS-tetrasaccharide-a (NeuAc alpha 2----3Gal beta 1---- 3GlcNAc beta 1----3Gal beta 1----4Glc) to disialyllacto -N- tetraose containing the terminal sequence: (formula: see text) found in N-linked oligosaccharides of glycoproteins. The N-acetylglucosaminide (alpha 2----6)-sialyltransferase has a marked preference for the sequence NeuAc alpha 2----3-Gal beta 1---- 3GlcNAc as an acceptor substrate. Thus, the order of addition of the two sialic acids in the disialylated structure shown above is proposed to be first the terminal sialic acid in the NeuAc alpha 2----3Gal linkage followed by the internal sialic acid in the NeuAc alpha 2---- 6GlcNAc linkage. Sialylation in vitro of the type 1 branches (Gal beta 1---- 3GlcNAc -) of the N-linked oligosaccharides of asialo prothrombin to produce the same disialylated sequence is also demonstrated. 相似文献

The primary structure of the N-linked sugar chains of glucose oxidase from Aspergillus niger was investigated. These sugar chains were released from the polypeptide backbone by hydrazinolysis, and the reducing ends of the sugar chains were pyridylaminated. HPLC of the pyridylamino sugar chains with an amide-silica column showed at least seven sugar chain peaks. Chemical and exoglycosidase digestion and 400 lMHz H-NMR studies of the sugar chains of lower molecular weight showed that these were novel oligomannose-type sugar chains, (Man)5-7 (GlcNAc)2, with the structure: +/- Man alpha 1----3Man alpha 1----3(Man alpha 1----6)Man alpha 1----6(+/- Man alpha 1----3Man alpha 1---3)Man )Man beta 1----4GlcNAc beta 1----4GlcNAc. 相似文献

J) with 10 mM HCl at 100 degrees C for 60 min gave a mixture of beta-1,2-linked manno-oligosaccharides, from tetraose to biose plus mannose, and an acid-stable mannan moiety (Fr. J-a), which was then acetolyzed by means of an acetolysis medium, 100:100:1 (v/v) mixture of (CH3CO)2O, CH3COOH, and H2SO4, at 40 degrees C for 36 h in order to avoid cleavage of the beta-1,2 linkage. The resultant manno-oligosaccharide mixture was fractionated on a column of Bio-Gel P-2 to yield insufficiently resolved manno-oligosaccharide fractions higher than pentaose and lower manno-oligosaccharides ranging from tetraose to biose plus mannose. The higher manno-oligosaccharide fraction was then digested with the Arthrobacter GJM-1 alpha-mannosidase in order to cleave the enzyme-susceptible alpha-1,2 and alpha-1,3 linkages, leaving manno-oligosaccharides containing the beta-1,2 linkage at their nonreducing terminal sites, Manp beta 1----2Manp alpha 1----2Manp alpha 1----2Manp alpha 1----2Man, Manp beta 1----2Manp beta 1----2Manp alpha 1----2Manp alpha 1---- 2Manp alpha 1----2Man, and Manp beta 1----2Manp beta 1----2Manp beta 1----2Manp alpha 1---- 2Manp alpha 1----2Manp alpha 1----2Man. However, the result of acetolysis of Fr. J-a by means of a 10:10:1 (v/v) mixture of (CH3CO)2O, CH3COOH, and H2SO4 at 40 degrees C for 13 h was significantly different from that obtained by the mild acetolysis method; i.e., the amount of mannose was apparently larger than that formed by the mild acetolysis method. In summary, a chemical structure for Fr. J as a highly branched mannan containing 14 different branching moieties was proposed. 相似文献
