Two particular types of sialoglycoproteins have been detected in fish: polysialoglycoproteins containing 28-linked polysialic acid (8Neu5Gc2)

present in unfertilized Salmonidae fish eggs, and glycoproteins bearing oligo/polymers of deaminated neuraminic acids (KDN) found in the vitelline envelope of the eggs and ovarian fluid. We report the preparation and characterization of a monoclonal antibody specifically recognizing oligo/polymers of KDN sequences in glycoproteins and its application in immunohistochemistry. Fusion of spleen cells from a BALB/c mouse immunized with a KDN-rich glycoprotein (KDN-gp) containing (8KDN2)
n
6(KDN23Gal13GlNAc13) GalNAc1 residues, with mouse myeloma cells yielded a hybrid cell line producing a monoclonal antibody that bound to KDN-gp, but not to KDN-gp depleted of KDN residues. The specificity of the monoclonal antibody, designated mAb.kdn8kdn, was determined by an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay using KDN-gp samples that varied in KDN content. These antigens were prepared by the selective removal of KDN residues from the native KDN-gp. The mAb.kdn8kdn reacted most strongly with the intact KDN-gp and less strongly with KDN-gp samples containing decreased numbers of KDN residues. The mAb.kdn8kdn was shown specifically to recognize the 28-linked oligo/polyKDN sequences, (8KDN2)
n
, and to be able to distinguish specifically (8KDN2)
n
chains from (8Neu5Ac2)
n
and (8Neu5Gc2)
n
chains. The antibody was used successfully for the immunohistochemical detection of reactive KDN epitopes in sections of paraffin embedded rat pancreas. Several controls verified the specificity of the immunohistochemical staining, thus providing the first demonstration of (8KDN2)

sequences in a mammalian tissue. The mAb.kdn8kdn can now be used to search further for glycoconjugates containing (8KDN2)

chains and will facilitate studies on their biosynthesis, intracellular localization and function. 相似文献

Fucosidosis is an autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disease resulting from the absence of -l-fucosidase activity. Two natural missense mutations (G197A) and (A860G) within the -l-fucosidase gene have been reported to be homozygous in four patients with fucosidosis. Expression of wild-type and mutated -l-fucosidase cDNAs in COS-1 cells revealed complete deficiency of -l-fucosidase for the G197A transition and a normal level of enzyme for A860G. We therefore conclude that the change of G197A is responsible for fucosidosis in the patients while A860G is a normal polymorphic variant of -l-fucosidase. 相似文献

Summary We have identified different -thalassemia mutations in 93 members of 34 families of Czech or Slovakian descent using gene amplification, hybridization with specific 32P-labeled oligonucleotide probes, sequencing of amplified DNA, and gene mapping. The GA mutation at IVS-I-1 was found in 18 families; other Mediterranean mutations were IVS-II-1 (GA), IVS-II-745 (CG), IVS-I-110 (GA), and codon 39 (CT); these were present in 9 additional families. The GT mutation at codon 121, known to cause Heinzbody -thalassemia, was present in 3 families, and the frameshift at codons 82/83 (-G), first described in the Azerbaijanian population, in 2 families. A newly discovered allele was a frameshift at codons 38/39 (-C). One -thalassemia allele was incompletely characterized. We observed in 2 families a TC mutation at position +96 UTR (untranslated region) relative to the termination codon; this mutation likely is a rare polymorphism, -Thalassemia was rare; only one person carried the -3.7 heterozygosity, and one other had a yet to be identified -thalassemia-1, while seven had the anti 3.7 triplication. 相似文献

As part of a program to explore the structural requirement of N-glycans in the carbohydrate-mediated biological interactions, N-linked pentasaccharide core structure was stereochemically modified in terms of glycosidic linkage. Three isomers, -D-Man-(13)-[-D-Man-(16)]--D-Man-(14)--D-GlcNAc-(14)--D-GlcNAc-L-Asn, -D-Man-(13)-[-D-Man-(16)]--D-Man-(14)--D-GlcNAc-(14)--D-GlcNAc-L-Asn, and -D-Man-(13)-[-D-man-(16)]--D-Man-(14)--D-GlcNAc-(14)--D-GlcNAc-L-Asn, were synthesized. Synthesis of the pentasaccharide with natural linkage is also described. 相似文献

Summary Gene dosage studies yielded results consistent with assignment of the locus for nucleoside phosphorylase to band 14q13. The red blood cells from a patient with the karyotype 47,XX,+der(14),t(8;14)(8qter8q24: :14q2114pter)pat had enzyme activity 50% higher than red cells from 47 normal controls, two trisomies involving chromosomes other than 14, and five balanced translocations involving chromosome 14. On the other hand, the red cells of a case with a karyotype 45,XX,-14,-22,+der(22),t(14;22)(14qter14q11 or 14q12::22p1122qter)mat and a case with a karyotype 47,XX, +der(14),t(14;16)(14pter14q11::16q2416qter)mat had normal activity. 相似文献

Summary N-Glycolylneuraminic acid (Neu5Gc) has been prepared by enzymatic hydrolysis of its -(28) linked homopolymer. The rate of hydrolysis of the natural poly -(28)-(Neu5Ac) and the semi-synthetic poly -(28)-(Neu5Gc) were compared with the neuraminidases fromClostridium perfringens andVibrio cholerae. The natural Neu5Ac polysaccharide was a better substrate for both enzymes. For comparison, acid hydrolysis of the two polysaccharides showed extensive degradation. 相似文献

Summary The inherent infidelity of Taq DNA polymerase in the polymerase chain reaction was exploited to produce random mutations in thetrp A gene. Screening of the resulting clones allowed selection of non-interactive mutant subunits retaining their intrinsic catalytic activity. Two single changes responsible for this phenotype were identified by DNA sequencing as: 126 valine (GTG)glutamic acid (GAG) and 128 valine (GTT)aspartic acid (GAT). Three single changes giving a non-interactive phenotype with an impaired intrinsic catalytic activity were identified by DNA sequencing as a66 asparagine (AAC)aspartic acid (GAC); 109lysine (AAA) arginine (AGA); 118 cysteine (TGC)arginine (CGC). Where possible, we individually assessed the importance of these residues in interaction in light of structural information from X-ray crystallography and by intergeneric protein sequence comparison. 相似文献

A novel syrup containing neofructo-oligosaccharides was produced from sucrose (Brix 70) by whole cells of Penicillium citrinum. The efficiency of fructo-oligosaccharides production was more than 55% and those of the main carbohydrate components, 1-kestose (Fruf 21Fruf 21 Glc), nystose (Fruf 21Fruf 21 Fruf 21 Glc) and neokestose (Fruf 26 Glc12 Fruf), were 22, 14 and 11%, respectively. 相似文献

Our recent studies have revealed the existence of two distinct Gal: 3-O-sulfotransferases capable of acting on the C-3 position of galactose in a Core 2 branched structure, e.g., Gal14GlcNAc16(Gal13)GalNac1OBenzyl as acceptor to give 3-O-sulfoGal14GlcNAc13(Gal13)GalNAc1OB 20 and Gal14GlcNAc16(3-O-sulfoGal13)GalNAc1OB 23. We herein report the synthesis of these two compounds and also that of other modified analogs that are highly specific acceptors for the two sulfotransferases. Appropriately protected 1-thio-glycosides 7, 8, and 10 were employed as glycosyl donors for the synthesis of our target compounds. 相似文献

The regulation of the expression of enzyme activities catalyzing initial reactions in the anoxic metabolism of various aromatic compounds was studied at the whole cell level in the denitrifying Pseudomonas strain K 172. The specific enzyme activities were determined after growth on six different aromatic substrates (phenol, 4-hydroxybenzoate, benzoate, p-cresol, phenylacetate, 4-hydroxyphenylacetate) all being proposed to be metabolized anaerobically via benzoyl-CoA. As a control cells were grown on acetate, or aerobically on benzoate. The expression of the following enzyme activities was determined.Phenol carboxylase, as studied by the isotope exchange between 14CO2 and the carboxyl group of 4-hydroxybenzoate; 4-hydroxybenzoyl-CoA reductase (dehydroxylating); p-cresol methylhydroxylase; 4-hydroxybenzyl alcohol dehydrogenase; 4-hydroxybenzaldehyde dehydrogenase; coenzymeA ligases for the aromatic acids benzoate, 4-hydroxybenzoate, phenylacetate, and 4-hydroxyphenylacetate; phenylglyoxylate: acceptor oxidoreductase and 4-hydroxyphenylglyoxylate: acceptor oxidoreductase; aromatic alcohol and aldehyde dehydrogenases.The formation of most active enzymes is strictly regulated; they were only induced when required, the basic activities being almost zero. The observed whole cell regulation pattern supports the postulate that the enzyme activities play a role in anoxic aromatic metabolism and that the compounds are degraded via the following intermediates: Phenol 4-hydroxybenzoate 4-hydroxybenzoyl-CoA benzoyl-CoA; 4-hydroxybenzoate 4-hydroxybenzoyl-CoA benzoyl-CoA; benzoate benzoyl-CoA; p-cresol 4-hydroxybenzaldehyde 4-hydroxybenzoate 4-hydroxybenzoyl-CoA benzoyl-CoA; phenylacetate phenylacetyl-CoA phenylglyoxylate benzoyl-CoA plus CO2; 4-hydroxyphenylacetate 4-hydroxyphenylacetyl-CoA 4-hydroxyphenylglyoxylate 4-hydroxybenzoyl-CoA plus CO2 benzoyl-CoA. 相似文献

The structures of the N-linked sugar chains in the PAS-6 glycoprotein (PAS-6) from the bovine milk fat globule membrane were determined. The sugar chains were liberated from PAS-6 by hydrazinolysis, and the pyridylaminated sugar chains were separated into a neutral (6N) and two acidic chains (6M and 6D), the acidic sugar chains then being converted to neutral sugar chains (6MN and 6DN). 6N was separated into two neutral fractions (6N13 and 6N5.5), while 6MN and 6DN each gave a single fraction (6MN13 and 6DN13). The structure of 6N5.5, which was the major sugar chain in PAS-6, is proposed to be Man16 (Man13) Man14GlcNAc14GlcNAc-PA; 6N13, 6MN13 and 6DN13 are proposed to be Gal13Gal14GlcNAc12Man16 (Gal13Gal14GlcNAc12Man13) Man14GlcNAc14 (Fuc16)GlcNAc-PA;6M and 6D had 1 or 2 additional NeuAc residues at the non-reducing ends of 6MN13 and 6DN13, respectively. © 1998 Rapid Science Ltd 相似文献

Summary On t.l.c. plates 125I-cholera toxin binds to a disialoganglioside tentatively identified as GDlb with about 10 times less capacity than to ganglioside GM1. Binding of labeled toxin to both gangliosides was abolished in presence of excess amounts of unlabeled B subunit. Ganglioside extracts from human or pig intestinal mucosa showed toxin binding to gangliosides GM1 and GD1b. In ganglioside-containing lipid monolayers the penetration of the toxin was independent of the ganglioside binding capacity.Abbreviations GM2

Structures of acidic N-glycans released from porcine zona pellucida glycoproteins by hydrazinolysis were studied. The results indicated that the acidic glycans are of mono- to tetraantennary complex-type with and without N-acetyllactosamine repeating units. Sulfated residues are not only located at the C-6 position of GlcNAc included in the N-acetyllactosamine repeating units, but also at the C-6 position of GlcNAc in the non-repeated antennae and at the C-3 position of reducing terminal GlcNAc residue. Analysis of the oligosaccharide fragments released by endo--galactosidase digestion and by hydrazine/nitrous acid treatment also revealed that various sulfated and non-sulfated forms of fucosylated structures such as Fuc12Gal14(±SO–36)GlcNAc (type 2H), Gal14(Fuc13)(±SO–36)GlcNAc(Lex) and Fuc13 or 4(±SO–36)GlcNAc, are expressed in the repeated outer chain moieties. 相似文献

Novel genetic variants for donkey milk lysozyme and -lactoglobulins I and II have been identified by the combined use of peptide mass mapping and sequencing by tandem mass spectrometry in association with database searching. The novel donkey lysozyme variant designated as lysozyme B (Mr 14,631 Da) differed in three amino acid exchanges, N49 D, Y52 S, and S61 N, from the previously published sequence. Three novel genetic variants for donkey -lactoglobulins were identified. One of them is a type -lactoglobulin I with three amino acid exchanges at E36 S, S97 T, and V150 I (-lactoglobulin I B, Mr 18,510 Da). The two others are type -lactoglobulins II with two amino acid exchanges at C110 P and M118 T (-lactoglobulin II B, Mr 18,227 Da) and with three amino acid exchanges at D96 E, C110 P, and M118 T (-lactoglobulin II C, Mr 18,241 Da). All these primary structures are closely related to those of homologous proteins in horse milk (percent identity >96%). 相似文献

Summary Most cell wall components are carbohydrate including the major matrix polysaccharides, pectins and hemicelluloses, and the arabinogalactan-protein proteoglycans. Both types of molecules are assembled in the Golgi apparatus and transported in secretory vesicles to the cell surface. We have employed antibodies specific to -(16) and -(14)-D-galactans, present in plant cell wall polysaccharides, in conjunction with immunofluorescence and electron microscopy to determine the location of the galactan-containing components in the cell wall and Golgi stacks of flax root tip tissues. Immunofluorescence data show that -(14)-D-galactan epitopes are restricted to peripheral cells of the root cap. These epitopes are not expressed in meristematic and columella cells. In contrast, -(16)-D-galactan epitopes are found in all cell types of flax roots. Immunogold labeling experiments show that both epitopes are specifically located within the wall immediately adjacent to the plasma membrane. They are also detected in Golgi cisternae and secretory vesicles, which indicates the involvement of the Golgi apparatus in their synthesis and transport. These findings demonstrate that the synthesis and localization of -(14)-D-galactan epitopes are highly regulated in developing flax roots and that different -linked D-galactans associated with cell wall polysaccharides are expressed in a cell type-specific manner. 相似文献

Novel O-serotypes were revealed among Pseudomonas syringae pv. garcae strains by using a set of mouse monoclonal antibodies specific to the lipopolysaccharide O-polysaccharide. Structural studies showed that the O-polysaccharide of P. syringae pv. garcae NCPPB 2708 is a hitherto unknown linear L-rhamnan lacking strict regularity and having two oligosaccharide repeating units I and II, which differ in the position of substitution in one of the rhamnose residues and have the following structures: I:3)--L Rha (12)-- L Rha (12)--L-Rha-(13)--L Rha (1;II: 2)--L-Rha-(13) -L-Rha-(12)--L-Rha-(13)--L Rha (1.The branched O-polysaccharides of P. syringae pv. garcae ICMP 8047 and NCPPB 588T have the same L-rhamnan backbone with repeating units I and II and a lateral chain of 14)- or 13)-linked residues of 3-acetamido-3,6-dideoxy-D-galactose (D-Fuc3NAc). Several monoclonal antibody epitopes associated with the L-rhamnan backbone or the lateral -D-Fuc3NAc residues were characterized.Translated from Mikrobiologiya, Vol. 73, No. 6, 2004, pp. 777–789.Original Russian Text Copyright © 2004 by Ovod, Zdorovenko, Shashkov, Kocharova, Knirel. 相似文献

(13),(14)--d-Glucans represent an important component of cell walls in the Poaceae family of higher plants. A number of glycoside endo- and exohydrolases is required for the depolymerization of (13),(14)--d-glucans in germinated grain or for the partial hydrolysis of the polysaccharide in elongating vegetative tissues. The enzymes include (13),(14)--d-glucan endohydrolases (EC 3.2.1.73), which are classified as family 17 glycoside hydrolases, (14)--d-glucan glucohydrolases (family 1) and -d-glucan exohydrolases (family 3). Kinetic analyses of hydrolytic reactions enable the definition of action patterns, the thermodynamics of substrate binding, and the construction of subsite maps. Mechanism-based inhibitors and substrate analogues have been used to study the spatial orientation of the substrate in the active sites of the enzymes, at the atomic level. The inhibitors and substrate analogues also allow us to define the catalytic mechanisms of the enzymes and to identify catalytic amino acid residues. Three-dimensional structures of (13),(14)--d-glucan endohydrolases, (14)--d-glucan glucohydrolases and -d-glucan exohydrolases are available or can be reliably modelled from the crystal structures of related enzymes. Substrate analogues have been diffused into crystals for solving of the three-dimensional structures of enzyme-substrate complexes. This information provides valuable insights into potential biological roles of the enzymes in the degradation of the barley (13),(14)--d-glucans during endosperm mobilization and in cell elongation. 相似文献

Three structural classes of (13)--d-glucans are encountered in some important soil-dwelling, plant-associated or human pathogenic bacteria. Linear (13)--glucans and side-chain-branched (13,12)--glucans are major constituents of capsular materials, with roles in bacterial aggregation, virulence and carbohydrate storage. Cyclic (13,16)--glucans are predominantly periplasmic, serving in osmotic adaptation. Curdlan, the linear (13)--glucan from Agrobacterium, has unique rheological and thermal gelling properties, with applications in the food industry and other sectors. This review includes information on the structure, properties and molecular genetics of the bacterial (13)--glucans, together with an overview of the physiology and biotechnology of curdlan production and applications of this biopolymer and its derivatives. 相似文献
