Solution conformation of asparagine-linked oligosaccharides: alpha(1-2)-, alpha(1-3)-, beta(1-2)-, and beta(1-4)-linked units 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The solution conformation is presented for representatives of each of the major classes of asparaginyl oligosaccharides. In this report the conformation of alpha(1-3)-, alpha(1-2)-, beta(1-2)-, and beta(1-4)-linked units is described. The conformational properties of these glycopeptides were determined by high-resolution 1H nuclear magnetic resonance in conjunction with potential energy calculations. The NMR parameters that were used in this analysis were chemical shifts and nuclear Overhauser enhancements. Potential energy calculations were used to evaluate the preferred conformers available for the different linkages in glycopeptides and to draw conclusions about the behavior in solution of these molecules. It was found that the linkage conformation of the Man alpha 1-3 residues was not affected by substitution either at the 2-position by alpha Man or beta GlcNAc or at the 4-position by beta GlcNAc or by the presence of a bisecting GlcNAc on the adjacent beta Man residue. 相似文献

The capacity of anti-dextran MOPC-104E IgM to bind and activate the first complement component (C1) in the presence of various specific monovalent oligosaccharides was investigated. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay revealed that IgM-oligosaccharide complexes saturated up to 97% with ligands were not capable of binding C1q under physiological conditions. Nor was any activation of reconstituted C1 observed. These results indicate that occupation of the single IgM binding sites by a monovalent ligand is not sufficient to induce a signal for complement activation. 相似文献

This paper presents data on the IgG antibody response against two "thymus-independent" dextran (Dex) antigens from Leuconostoc mesenteroides, alpha(1----3) Dex B 1355S and alpha(1----6) Dex B 512F in BALB/c and C57BL/6 mice, which are considered to be responders or low responders to the respective antigen. The data point toward three common rules governing the two anti-Dex responses despite immunogenetic and antigenic disparities: (1) age dependency of the IgG isotype regulation of the response; (2) down-regulation of IgG isotype expression by T cells; and (3) individually determined preposition for IgG isotype formation in a given animal. 相似文献

The carbohydrate moieties of glycosphingolipids from eggs of the human parasite, Schistosoma mansoni, were enzymatically released, labelled with 2-aminopyridine (PA), fractionated and analysed by linkage analysis, partial hydrolysis, enzymatic cleavage, matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry and nano-electrospray ionization mass spectrometry. Apart from large, highly fucosylated structures with five to seven HexNAc residues, we found short, oligofucosylated species containing three to four HexNAc residues. Their structures have been determined as Fuc(alpha1-3)GalNAc(beta1-4)[ +/- Fuc (alpha1-3)]GlcNAc(beta1-3)GalNAc(beta1-4)Glc-PA, GalNAc(beta1-4)[Fuc(alpha1-3)]GlcNAc(beta1-3)GlcNAc(beta1-3)GalNAc(beta1-4) Glc-PA, Fuc(alpha1-3)GalNAc(beta1-4)[Fuc(alpha1-3)]GlcNAc(beta1-4) GlcNAc(beta1-3)GalNAc(beta1-4)Glc-PA, and Fuc(alpha1-3) GalNAc(beta1-4)[ +/- Fuc(alpha1-2) +/- Fuc(alpha1-2)Fuc(alpha1-3)]Glc NAc(beta1-3)GlcNAc(beta1-3)GalNAc(beta1-4)Glc-PA. The last structure exhibits a trifucosyl sidechain previously identified on the cercarial glycocalyx. These structures stress the importance of 3-fucosylated GalNAc as a terminal epitope in schistosome glycoconjugates. To what degree these glycans contribute to the pronounced antigenicity of S. mansoni egg glycolipids remains to be determined. In addition, we have identified the compounds GlcNAc(beta1-3)GalNAc(beta1-4)Glc-PA, Gal(beta1-4)[Fuc(alpha1-3)]GlcNAc(beta1-3) GalNAc (beta1-4)Glc-PA, the latter of which is a Lewis X-pentasaccharide identical to that present on cercarial glycolipids, as well as Gal(beta1-3)GalNAc(1-4)Gal(1-4)Glc-PA, which corresponds to asialogangliotetraosylceramide and is most probably derived from the mammalian host. 相似文献

Both 25-epimers of (22E)-22-dehydro-1 alpha,25-dihydroxy-26-methylvitamin D3 [22-dehydro-26-methyl-1,25-(OH)2D3] were synthesized. The biological activity of these compounds was tested in binding affinity to chick intestinal receptor protein of 1 alpha,25-dihydroxy-vitamin D3 [1,25-(OH)2D3] and in stimulating for intestinal calcium transport and bone calcium mobilization with vitamin D-deficient rats. The relative potency of (25R)- and (25S)-22-dehydro-26-homo-1,25-(OH)2D3 and 1,25-(OH)2D3 in competing for the intestinal cytosolic binding was 1.7:1.5:1. A similar order of activity was observed on intestinal calcium transport and bone calcium mobilization. In the ability for stimulation of intestinal calcium transport, (25R)- and (25S)-22-dehydro-26-methyl-1,25-(OH)2D3 were about 3.6 and 2.1 times as active as 1,25-(OH)2D3, respectively. In bone calcium mobilization tests, (25R)- and (25S)-22-dehydro-26-methyl-1,25-(OH)2D3 were estimated to be 2.2 and 1.6 times as potent as 1,25-(OH)2D3, respectively. 相似文献

The crystal structures of concanavalin A in complex with Man(alpha1-6)Man(alpha1-O)Me and Man(alpha1-3)Man(alpha1-O)Me were determined at resolutions of 2.0 and 2.8 A, respectively. In both structures, the O-1-linked mannose binds in the conserved monosaccharide-binding site. The O-3-linked mannose of Man(alpha1-3)Man(alpha1-O)Me binds in the hydrophobic subsite formed by Tyr-12, Tyr-100, and Leu-99. The shielding of a hydrophobic surface is consistent with the associated large heat capacity change. The O-6-linked mannose of Man(alpha1-6)Man(alpha1-O)Me binds in the same subsite formed by Tyr-12 and Asp-16 as the reducing mannose of the highly specific trimannose Man(alpha1-3)[Man(alpha1-6)]Man(alpha1-O)Me. However, it is much less tightly bound. Its O-2 hydroxyl makes no hydrogen bond with the conserved water 1. Water 1 is present in all the sugar-containing concanavalin A structures and increases the complementarity between the protein-binding surface and the sugar, but is not necessarily a hydrogen-bonding partner. A water analysis of the carbohydrate-binding site revealed a conserved water molecule replacing O-4 on the alpha1-3-linked arm of the trimannose. No such water is found for the reducing or O-6-linked mannose. Our data indicate that the central mannose of Man(alpha1-3)[Man(alpha1-6)]Man(alpha1-O)Me primarily functions as a hinge between the two outer subsites. 相似文献

Oligosaccharides containing fucose linked alpha(1-3) and alpha(1-4) to N-acetylglucosamine cause decompaction of mouse morulae 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8
Two- to four-cell and eight-cell mouse embryos were incubated in various fucosylated and unfucosylated oligosaccharides, fucose binding protein, and fucosylated BSA. Compaction at the eight-cell stage was reversed by a mixture containing the oligosaccharides lacto-N-fucopentaose II (80-90%), in which fucose is linked alpha(1-4) to N-acetylglucosamine, and lacto-N-fucopentaose III (10-20%), in which fucose is linked alpha(1-3) to N-acetylglucosamine. Pure lacto-N-fucopentaose III (LNFP III) and 3-fucosyl lactose (containing fucose alpha(1-3)glucose) had a similar effect. All three molecules affected blastocyst formation. Various closely related fucosylated and unfucosylated oligosaccharides did not induce decompaction or inhibit blastocyst formation. The proportion of embryos incubated from the two- to four-cell stage in LNFP II/III which reached the eight-cell stage and formed blastocysts was reduced. Those which formed compact morulae subsequently decompacted. Precompact or early compacting eight-cell embryos incubated in LNFP II/III compacted normally but subsequently decompacted and failed to form blastocysts. Decompaction of eight-cell embryos in LNFP II/III occurred during a specific period of development (80-90 hr post-hCG) and was reversible up to 84-86 hr post-hCG, but not by 92 hr post-hCG. The period of sensitivity to LNFP II/III was associated with the decrease in the ability of calcium-free medium to cause decompaction. It appears that LNFP II/III interferes with a later calcium-independent phase of compaction and we propose that LNFP III and II inhibit an endogenous lectin-saccharide interaction between membranes involved in the stabilization of compaction. 相似文献

Construction of 25-hydroxy-steroidal side chain substituted with iodine at C-22 was elaborated on a model PTAD-protected steroidal 5,7-diene and applied to a synthesis of (22R)- and (22S)-22-iodo-1alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3. Configuration at C-22 in the iodinated vitamins, obtained by nucleophilic substitution of the corresponding 22S-tosylates with sodium iodide, was determined by comparison of their iodine-displacement processes and cyclizations leading to isomeric five-membered (22,25)-epoxy-1alpha-hydroxyvitamin D3 compounds. Also, 20(22)-dehydrosteroids have been obtained and their structures established by 1H NMR spectroscopy. When compared to the natural hormone, (E)-20(22)-dehydro-1alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 was found 4 times less potent in binding to the porcine intestinal vitamin D receptor (VDR) and 2 times less effective in differentiation of HL-60 cells. 22-Iodinated vitamin D analogues showed somewhat lower in vitro activity, whereas (22,25)-epoxy analogues were inactive. Interestingly, it was established that (22S)-22-iodo-1alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 was 3 times more potent than its (22R)-isomer in binding to VDR and four times more effective in HL-60 cell differentiation assay. The restricted mobility of the side chain of both 22-iodinated vitamin D compounds was analyzed by a systematic conformational search indicating different spatial regions occupied by their 25-oxygen atoms. Preliminary data on the in vivo calcemic activity of the synthesized vitamin D analogues indicate that (E)-20(22)-dehydro-1alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 and 22-iodo-1alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 isomers were ca. ten times less potent than the natural hormone 1alpha,25-(OH)2D3 both in intestinal calcium transport and bone calcium mobilization. 相似文献

The only strains of mice which are able to synthesize lambda 1-bearing antibodies in response to alpha (1-3) Dextran are those expressing the Igha allotypic haplotype or those having an Igh V region identical to Igha mice. The experiments reported here were designed to investigate whether the nonresponsiveness of mice which do not express the Igha haplotype is a consequence of an absence of a polyclonal B cell receptor for the alpha (1-3) Dextran TI-antigen. B cells of several mouse strains were stimulated with polyclonal B cell activators (PBA) known to either stimulate non-overlapping B cell subsets or to stimulate B cells at different stages of maturation, i.e., lipopolysaccharide, Nocardia delipidated cell mitogens and alloreactive T helper cells. Whereas all three PBA induced B cells from Igha mice to secrete lambda 1-bearing anti-alpha (1-3) antibodies, the PBA were incapable of inducing B cells from non-Igha mice to mount an anti-alpha (1-3) Dextran response. The data suggest that non-Igha mice lack a functional VH Dex gene for the lambda 1-bearing anti-alpha (1-3) Dextran response. 相似文献

Six major neutral and acidic oligosaccharide-alditols were prepared from the jelly coat of Mexican axolotl eggs. These compounds were demonstrated to contain 3-deoxy-D-glycero-D-galacto-nonulosonic acid (dNloA) and L-fucose (Fuc). The structures of the six major oligosaccharides were established as follows: [sequence: see text] 相似文献

Gene transfection and expression techniques have been used to produce three antibodies specific for alpha (1----6) linked dextran B512 with altered isotypes and J kappa regions. Expression of the L chain V region joined to J kappa 4 or J kappa 5 instead of to J kappa 2 reduced or abolished dextran binding. One antidextran with a reduced binding constant for dextran had the same combining site size as the parental mAb. Transfectoma Ig unreactive with dextran B512 did not bind to other class I or class II dextrans. Antibodies with J kappa 4-containing L chains expressed the 10.16.1 (anti-alpha(1----6) dextran) idiotype. In contrast variants expressing L chains with J kappa 5 lost idiotype expression, except when oligosaccharide is present on VH; all antibodies with J kappa 5 L chains continued to bind dextran but with reduced affinity. The presence of carbohydrate in VH may alter the conformation of both paratope and idiotope. Alteration of H chain isotype did not appear to significantly alter the ability of the antidextran to bind Ag; an exception may be that switching V regions to the IgM C region may decrease the apparent affinity for Ag. 相似文献

Studies of the stereochemistry of the intermediates, 3 alpha,7 alpha,12 alpha-trihydroxy-5 beta-cholest-24-en-26-oic acid and 3 alpha,7 alpha,12 alpha,24-tetrahydroxy-5 beta-cholestan-26-oic acid, in the biosynthetic sequence between 3 alpha,7 alpha,12 alpha-trihydroxy-5 beta-cholestan-26-oic acid and cholic acid have been undertaken. (25R)- or (25S)-3 alpha,7 alpha, 12 alpha-Trihydroxy-5 beta-cholestan-26-oic acid was incubated with rat liver homogenates. The reaction products were converted to p-bromophenacyl ester derivatives and the esters were analyzed by high-performance liquid chromatography. By comparison with authentic samples of two (24E)- and (24Z)-isomers of the alpha, beta-unsaturated acid and of four isomers at C-24 and C-25 of the beta-hydroxy acid, (24E)-3 alpha,7 alpha, 12 alpha-trihydroxy-5 beta-cholestan-26-oic acid and (24R,25S)-3 alpha,7 alpha,12 alpha,24-tetrahydroxy-5 beta-cholestan-26-oic acid were found to be formed from either (25R)- or (25S)-3 alpha,7 alpha, 12 alpha-trihydroxy-5 beta-cholestan-26-oic acid. No formation of the (24Z)-isomer of the trihydroxycholestenoic acid or the other three isomers of the tetrahydroxycholestanoic acid was detected. The findings are discussed in relation to the assumed pathway for side chain cleavage in cholic acid biosynthesis. 相似文献

Purified human alpha(1) proteinase inhibitor, a plasma glycoprotein with a molecular weight of 5.3 x 10(4) daltons and a major serine protease inhibitor has been covalently coupled to dextrans with molecular weights of 1.77 x 10(4) and 1.03 x 10(4) daltons. The coupled conjugates were soluble in aqueous medium and stable up to 6 months at +5 degrees C. Increased moles of dextran/mole protein ratio during coupling resulted in progressive decreases of inhibitory capacity, immunogenicity, and the association constant (k(assoc)) between the enzyme and the inhibitor. Compared to the native protein, the soluble conjugates showed improved stability at pH 3.0 and heat stability at 60 degrees C. At 60 degrees C, no loss of inhibitory capacity has been seen up to 60 min for the conjugates during which time the native protein lost greater than 90% of its inhibitory capacity. The presence of antioxidant catalase was needed to prevent oxidative degradation by hydrogen peroxide. 相似文献

The nature of two novel C27 bile acids present as the taurine conjugates in urine from a patient with Zellweger's syndrome was studied. Bile acids conjugated with taurine were isolated from unconjugated and glycine-conjugated bile acids by means of ion-exchange chromatography. After alkaline hydrolysis of the taurine conjugates, the hydrolysate was acidified and extracted with ether; the extract was again subjected to ion-exchange chromatography to separate neutral from acidic compounds. The neutral fraction, which consisted mainly of two steroidal lactones, was treated with lithium aluminum hydride, and the reduction products were identified as (22R)-5 beta-cholestane-3 alpha,7 alpha,12 alpha,22,26-pentol and (23R)-5 beta-cholestane-3 alpha,7 alpha,12 alpha,23,26-pentol by direct comparison of their gas-liquid chromatographic behaviors and mass spectral data with those of chemically synthesized authentic samples. Thus, the chemical structure of two native bile acids present in urine from a patient with Zellweger's syndrome should be formulated as (22R)-3 alpha,7 alpha,12 alpha,22-tetrahydroxy-5 beta-cholestanoic acid and (23R)-3 alpha,7 alpha,12 alpha,12 alpha,23-tetrahydroxy-5 beta-cholestanoic acid, respectively. 相似文献

The synthesis of (22R)- and (22S)-5beta-cholestane-3alpha,7alpha,12alpha,22,25-pentols is described. Bisnorcholyl aldehyde was prepared from cholic acid and converted into the cholestane-pentols by a Grignard reaction with 3-methyl-3-(tetrahydropyran-2-yloxy)-butynylmagnesium bromide followed by hydrogenation and acid hydrolysis. One of the synthetic pentols, the 22R-isomer was identical with a metabolite of 5beta-cholestane-3alpha,7alpha,25-triol formed in the rabbit. 相似文献
