The new field of functional glycomics encompasses information about both glycan structure and recognition by carbohydrate-binding proteins (CBPs) and is now being explored through glycan array technology. Glycan array construction, however, is limited by the complexity of efficiently generating derivatives of free, reducing glycans with primary amines for conjugation. Here we describe a straightforward method to derivatize glycans with 2,6-diaminopyridine (DAP) to generate fluorescently labeled glycans (glycan-DAP conjugates or GDAPs) that contain a primary amine for further conjugation. We converted a wide variety of glycans, including milk sugars, N-glycans, glycosaminoglycans and chitin-derived glycans, to GDAPs, as verified by HPLC and mass spectrometry. We covalently conjugated GDAPs to N-hydroxysuccinimide (NHS)-activated glass slides, maleimide-activated protein, carboxylated microspheres and NHS-biotin to provide quantifiable fluorescent derivatives. All types of conjugated glycans were well-recognized by appropriate CBPs. Thus, GDAP derivatives provide versatile new tools for biologists to quantify and covalently capture minute quantities of glycans for exploring their structures and functions and generating new glycan arrays from naturally occurring glycans. 相似文献

A glycan microarray was developed by using 2,6-diaminopyridine (DAP) as a fluorescent linker and printing of the glycan-DAP
conjugates (GDAPs) on epoxy-activated glass slides. Importantly, all coupled GDAPs showed a detectable level of concentration-dependent
GDAP fluorescence under blue laser excitation (495 nm) that can be used for both grid location and on-slide quantification.
A glycan array including a large number of GDAP’s derived from natural and commercially available free glycans was constructed
and glycan interactions with various plant lectins were investigated. In addition, binding parameters of lectins to glycans
were obtained by varying both the amount of GDAPs on the array and the lectin concentration in analyses. These data demonstrate
the general utility of GDAP microarrays for functional glycomic analyses and for determining binding parameters of glycan
binding proteins (GBPs). 相似文献

All currently identified primary receptors of adeno-associated virus (AAV) are glycans. Depending on the AAV serotype, these carbohydrates range from heparan sulfate proteoglycans (HSPG), through glycans with terminal α2-3 or α2-6 sialic acids, to terminal galactose moieties. Receptor identification has largely relied on binding to natural compounds, defined glycan-presenting cell lines, or enzyme-mediated glycan modifications. Here, we describe a comparative binding analysis of highly purified, fluorescent-dye-labeled AAV vectors of various serotypes on arrays displaying over 600 different glycans and on a specialized array with natural and synthetic heparins. Few glycans bind AAV specifically in a serotype-dependent manner. Differential glycan binding was detected for the described sialic acid-binding AAV serotypes 1, 6, 5, and 4. The natural heparin binding serotypes AAV2, -3, -6, and -13 displayed differential binding to selected synthetic heparins. AAV7, -8, -rh.10, and -12 did not bind to any of the glycans present on the arrays. For discrimination of AAV serotypes 1 to 6 and 13, minimal binding moieties are identified. This is the first study to differentiate the natural mixed heparin binding AAV serotypes 2, 3, 6, and 13 by differential binding to specific synthetic heparins. Also, sialic acid binding AAVs display differential glycan binding specificities. The findings are relevant for further dissection of AAV host cell interaction. Moreover, the definition of single AAV-discriminating glycan binders opens the possibility for glycan microarray-based discrimination of AAV serotypes in gene therapy. 相似文献

Influenza A virus carries hundreds of trimeric hemagglutinin (HA) proteins on its viral envelope that interact with various sialylated glycans on a host cell. This interaction represents a multivalent binding event that is present in all the current receptor binding assays, including those employing viruses or precomplexed HA trimers. To study the nature of such multivalent binding events, we fused a superfolder green fluorescent protein (sfGFP) to the C-terminus of trimeric HA to allow for direct visualization of HA–receptor interactions without the need for additional fluorescent antibodies. The multivalent binding of the HA–sfGFP proteins was studied using glycan arrays and tissue staining. The HA–sfGFP with human-type receptor specificity was able to bind to a glycan array as the free trimer. In contrast, the HA–sfGFP with avian-type receptor specificity required multimerization by antibodies before binding to glycans on the glycan array could be observed. Interestingly, multimerization was not required for binding to tissues. The array data may be explained by the possible bivalent binding mode of a single human-specific HA trimer to complex branched N-glycans, which is not possible for the avian-specific HA due to geometrical constrains of the binding sites. The fact that this specificity pattern changes upon interaction with a cell surface probably represents the enhanced amount of glycan orientations and variable densities versus those on the glycan array. 相似文献

Release of O‐glycans by reductive β‐elimination has become routine in many glyco‐analytical laboratories and concomitant release of N‐glycans has repeatedly been observed. Revisiting this somewhat forgotten mode of N‐glycan release revealed that all kinds of N‐glycans including oligomannosidic and complex‐type N‐glycans from plants with 3‐linked fucose and from mammals with or without 6‐linked fucose and with sialic acid could be recovered. However, the mass spectra of the obtained products revealed very surprising facts. Even after 16 h incubation in 1 M sodium borohydride, a large part of the glycans occurred in reducing form. Moreover, about one third emerged in the form of the stable amino‐functionalized 1‐amino‐1‐deoxy‐glycitol. When avoiding acidic conditions, considerable amounts of glycosylamine were observed. In addition, a compound with a reduced asparagine and de‐N‐acetylation products, in particular of sialylated glycans, was seen. The relative yields of the products reducing glycosylamine, reducing N‐glycan, 1‐amino‐1‐deoxy‐glycitol or glycitol could be controlled by the release conditions, foremost by temperature and borohydride concentration. Thus, chemical release of N‐glycans constitutes a cost‐saving alternative to enzymatic hydrolysis for the preparation of precursors for the production of reference compounds for various formats of N‐glycan analysis. Moreover, it allows to obtain a stable amino‐functionalized glycan derivative, which can be employed to construct glycan arrays or affinity matrices. 相似文献

Glycosylation is an important posttranslational modificationin proteins, and aberrant glycosylation occurs in malignancies.Human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) is a glycoprotein hormoneproduced in high concentrations during pregnancy. It is alsoexpressed as particular glycoforms by certain malignancies.These glycoforms, which are called "hyperglycosylated" hCG (hCGh),have been reported to contain more complex glycan moieties.We have analyzed tryptic glycopeptides of the ß-subunitof hCG of various origins by liquid chromatography (LC) connectedto an electrospray mass spectrometer. Site-specific glycan structureswere visualized by the use of differential expression analysissoftware. hCGß was purified from urine of two patientswith testicular cancer, one with choriocarcinoma, one with aninvasive mole, two pregnant women at early and late gestation,from a pharmaceutical preparation and culture medium of a choriocarcinomacell line. N-glycans at Asn-13 and Asn-30 as well as O-glycansat Ser-121, Ser-127, Ser-132, and Ser-138 were characterized.In all samples, the major type of N-glycan was a biantennarycomplex-type structure, but triantennary structures linked toAsn-30 as well as fucosylation of the Asn-13-bound glycan areincreased in cancer-derived hCGß. There were significantsite-specific differences in the O-glycans, with constant core-2glycans at Ser-121, core-1 glycans at Ser-138, and putativesites unoccupied by any glycan. Core-2 glycans at either Ser-127or Ser-132 were enriched in cancer. The glycans of free hCGßwere larger and had a higher fucose content of Asn-13-linkedoligosaccharides than intact hCG. This may facilitate the detectionof this malignancy-associated variant by a lectin assay. Analysisof hCGh affinity purified with antibody B152 confirmed thatthis antibody recognizes a core-2 glycan on Ser-132. 相似文献

Many diseases and disorders are characterized by quantitative and/or qualitative changes in complex carbohydrates. Mass spectrometry methods show promise in monitoring and detecting these important biological changes. Here we report a new glycomics method, termed glycan reductive isotope labeling (GRIL), where free glycans are derivatized by reductive amination with the differentially coded stable isotope tags [12C6]aniline and [13C6]aniline. These dual-labeled aniline-tagged glycans can be recovered by reverse-phase chromatography and can be quantified based on ultraviolet (UV) absorbance and relative ion abundances. Unlike previously reported isotopically coded reagents for glycans, GRIL does not contain deuterium, which can be chromatographically resolved. Our method shows no chromatographic resolution of differentially labeled glycans. Mixtures of differentially tagged glycans can be directly compared and quantified using mass spectrometric techniques. We demonstrate the use of GRIL to determine relative differences in glycan amount and composition. We analyze free glycans and glycans enzymatically or chemically released from a variety of standard glycoproteins, as well as human and mouse serum glycoproteins, using this method. This technique allows linear relative quantitation of glycans over a 10-fold concentration range and can accurately quantify sub-picomole levels of released glycans, providing a needed advancement in the field of glycomics. 相似文献

Glycan Atlas is a set of glycan maps over the whole body of an organism. The glycan map that includes data of glycan structure and quantity displays micro-heterogeneity of the glycans in a tissue, an organ, or cells. The two-dimensional glycan mapping is widely used for structure analysis of N-linked oligosaccharides on glycoproteins. In this study we developed a comprehensive method for the mapping of both N- and O-glycans with and without sialic acid. The mapping data of 150 standard pyridylaminated glycans were collected. The empirical additivity rule which was proposed in former reports was able to adapt for this extended glycan map. The adapted rule is that the elution time of pyridylamino glycans on high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) is expected to be the simple sum of the partial elution times assigned to each monosaccharide residue. The comprehensive mapping method developed in this study is a powerful tool for describing the micro-heterogeneity of the glycans. Furthermore, we prepared 42 pyridylamino (PA-) glycans from human serum and were able to draw the map of human serum N- and O-glycans as an initial step of Glycan Atlas editing. 相似文献

Phytohemagglutinin is a glycoprotein that accumulates in the protein storage vacuoles of bean seeds. The mature glycoprotein has a high-mannose and a complex glycan. We describe here the use of site-directed mutagenesis and expression of the mutated genes in transgenic tobacco to study the role of glycans in intracellular targeting. The reading frame for phytohemagglutinin-L was mutated so that either one or both of the glycosylation signals were disrupted to specifically prevent the attachment of asparagine-linked glycans. Expression of these genes with the beta-phaseolin promoter in the seeds of transgenic tobacco plants showed that phytohemagglutinin-L with only one glycan or without glycans was correctly targeted to the protein storage vacuoles of the seeds. Furthermore, the absence of either the complex glycan or the high-mannose glycan did not alter the processing of the other glycan. On the basis of these results, we propose that the targeting signal of this vacuolar protein is contained in its polypeptide domain and not in its glycans. 相似文献

Human milk contains a large diversity of free glycans beyond lactose, but their functions are not well understood. To explore their functional recognition, here we describe a shotgun glycan microarray prepared from isolated human milk glycans (HMGs), and our studies on their recognition by viruses, antibodies, and glycan-binding proteins (GBPs), including lectins. The total neutral and sialylated HMGs were derivatized with a bifunctional fluorescent tag, separated by multidimensional HPLC, and archived in a tagged glycan library, which was then used to print a shotgun glycan microarray (SGM). This SGM was first interrogated with well defined GBPs and antibodies. These data demonstrated both the utility of the array and provided preliminary structural information (metadata) about this complex glycome. Anti-TRA-1 antibodies that recognize human pluripotent stem cells specifically recognized several HMGs that were then further structurally defined as novel epitopes for these antibodies. Human influenza viruses and Parvovirus Minute Viruses of Mice also specifically recognized several HMGs. For glycan sequencing, we used a novel approach termed metadata-assisted glycan sequencing (MAGS), in which we combine information from analyses of glycans by mass spectrometry with glycan interactions with defined GBPs and antibodies before and after exoglycosidase treatments on the microarray. Together, these results provide novel insights into diverse recognition functions of HMGs and show the utility of the SGM approach and MAGS as resources for defining novel glycan recognition by GBPs, antibodies, and pathogens. 相似文献

Comparative study of the primary structures of sero-, lacto- and ovotransferrin glycans from different species 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
In order to establish relationships between glycan structure and biological activity and to answer the question: Are glycans markers of evolution?, the authors undertook a comparative study of the glycan primary structures of different transferrins (sero-, lacto- and ovotransferrins) from several species. By associating permethylation--mass spectrometry and 1H NMR spectroscopy, the primary structure of the following transferrin glycans were determined: human, bovine, hen, horse, marsupial, mouse, rabbit, rat and sheep serotransferrins; human, mouse, bovine and goat lactotransferrins; hen and turkey ovotransferrins. The results obtained led to the conclusion that transferrin glycans are specific for each transferrin and, for a given transferrin, specific to the species. No relationship could be established a priori between primary structure and function of transferrin glycans. 相似文献

Analysis of oligosaccharides by mass spectrometry (MS) has enabled the investigation of the glycan repertoire of organisms with high resolution and sensitivity. It is difficult, however, to correlate the expression of glycosyltransferases with the glycan structures present in a particular cell type or tissue because the use of MS for quantitative purposes has significant limitations. For this reason, in order to develop a technique that would allow relative glycan quantification by MS analysis between two samples, a procedure was developed for the isotopic labeling of oligosaccharides with (13)C-labeled methyl iodide using standard permethylation conditions. Separate aliquots of oligosaccharides from human milk were labeled with (12)C or (13)C methyl iodide; the labeled and non-labeled glycans were mixed in known proportions, and the mixtures analyzed by MS. Results indicated that the isotopic labeling described here was capable of providing relative quantitative data with a dynamic range of at least two orders of magnitude, adequate linearity, and reproducibility with a coefficient of variation that was 13% on average. This procedure was used to analyze N-linked glycans released from various mixtures of glycoproteins, such as alpha-1 acid glycoprotein, human transferrin, and bovine fetuin, using MS techniques that included matrix assisted laser desorption ionization-time of flight MS and electrospray ionization with ion cyclotron resonance-Fourier transformation MS. The measured (12)C:(13)C ratios from mixtures of glycans permethylated with either (12)CH(3)I or (13)CH(3)I were consistent with the theoretical proportions. This technique is an effective procedure for relative quantitative glycan analysis by MS. 相似文献

Influenza neuraminidase is an important drug target. Glycans are present on neuraminidase and are generally considered to inhibit antibody binding via their glycan shield. In this work, we studied the effect of glycans on the binding kinetics of antiviral drugs to the influenza neuraminidase. We created all-atom in silico systems of influenza neuraminidase with experimentally derived glycoprofiles consisting of four systems with different glycan conformations and one system without glycans. Using Brownian dynamics simulations, we observe a two- to eightfold decrease in the rate of ligand binding to the primary binding site of neuraminidase due to the presence of glycans. These glycans are capable of covering much of the surface area of neuraminidase, and the ligand binding inhibition is derived from glycans sterically occluding the primary binding site on a neighboring monomer. Our work also indicates that drugs preferentially bind to the primary binding site (i.e., the active site) over the secondary binding site, and we propose a binding mechanism illustrating this. These results help illuminate the complex interplay between glycans and ligand binding on the influenza membrane protein neuraminidase. 相似文献

HPLC analysis proved that Coptis chinensis glycan contained Ara, Man, and Gal. The monosaccharide constituents of Phellodendron amurense glycan were determined by HPLC analysis. HPLC analysis proved that P. amurense glycan contained Ara, Xyl, Glu, and Gal. FT-IR spectrum of C. chinensis glycan and P. amurense glycan showed the characteristic absorption peaks of carbohydrate polymers. Exposure of the human skin to ultraviolet radiation (UVR) leads to depletion of cutaneous antioxidants, regulation of gene expression and ultimately to the development of skin diseases. In the present study, free radical scavenging activity of C. chinensis and P. amurense glycan were evaluated. The photoprotective effect of C. chinensis and P. amurense glycan against UV-induced oxidative damage was also investigated in skin. At the concentration range employed, the two glycans showed strong free radical scavenging activity. Ultraviolet radiation reduced skin antioxidant enzyme and immunity activities in animals. Administration of C. chinensis and P. amurense glycans dose-dependently significantly increased skin antioxidant enzyme and immunity activities in animals. In conclusion, C. chinensis and P. amurense glycans present photoprotective properties, which can be attributed to molecules, such as flavonoids and carotenoids, which act as UV-absorbing molecules and as antioxidants, as well as stimulate immunity activities in animals. 相似文献

Aberrant glycosylation of human glycoproteins is related to various physiological states, including the onset of diseases such as cancer. Consequently, the search for glycans that could be markers of diseases or targets of therapeutic drugs has been intensive. Here, we describe a high-throughput ion mobility spectrometry/mass spectrometry analysis of N-linked glycans from human serum. Distributions of glycans are assigned according to their m/z values, while ion mobility distributions provide information about glycan conformational and isomeric composition. Statistical analysis of data from 22 apparently healthy control patients and 39 individuals with known diseases (20 with cirrhosis of the liver and 19 with liver cancer) shows that ion mobility distributions for individual m/z ions appear to be sufficient to distinguish patients with liver cancer or cirrhosis. Measurements of glycan conformational and isomeric distributions by IMS-MS may provide insight that is valuable for detecting and characterizing disease states. 相似文献

Glycosylation is one of the most common post-translational modifications of proteins and has been shown to change with various pathological states including cancer. Global glycan profiling of human serum based on mass spectrometry has already led to several promising markers for diseases. The changes in glycan structure can result in altered monosaccharide composition as well as in the linkages between the monosaccharides. High-throughput glycan structural elucidation is not possible because of the lack of a glycan template to expedite identification. In an effort toward rapid profiling and identification of glycans, we have constructed a library of structures for the serum glycome to aid in the rapid identification of serum glycans. N-Glycans from human serum glycoproteins are used as a standard and compiled into a library with exact structure (composition and linkage), liquid chromatography retention time, and accurate mass. Development of the library relies on highly reproducible nanoLC-MS retention times. Tandem MS and exoglycosidase digestions were used for structural elucidation. The library currently contains over 300 entries with 50 structures completely elucidated and over 60 partially elucidated structures. This database is steadily growing and will be used to rapidly identify glycans in unknown biological samples. 相似文献

During the N-glycosylation reaction, it has been shown that 'free' N-glycans are generated either from lipid-linked oligosaccharides or from misfolded glycoproteins. In both cases, occurrence of high mannose-type free glycans is well-documented, and the molecular mechanism for their catabolism in the cytosol has been studied. On the other hand, little, if anything, is known with regard to the accumulation of more processed, complex-type free oligosaccharides in the cytosol of mammalian cells. During the course of comprehensive analysis of N-glycans in cancer cell membrane fractions [Naka et al. (2006) J. Proteome Res. 5, 88-97], we found that a significant amount of unusual, complex-type free N-glycans were accumulated in the stomach cancer-derived cell lines, MKN7 and MKN45. The most abundant and characteristic glycan found in these cells was determined to be NeuAcalpha2-6Galbeta1-4GlcNAcbeta1-2Manalpha1-3Manbeta1-4GlcNAc. Biochemical analyses indicated that those glycans found were cytosolic glycans derived from lysosomes due to low integrity of the lysosomal membrane. Since the accumulation of these free N-glycans was specific to only two cell lines among the various cancer cell lines examined, these cytosolic N-glycans may serve as a specific biomarker for diagnosis of specific tumours. A cytosolic sialidase, Neu2, was shown to be involved in the degradation of these sialoglycans, indicating that the cytosol of mammalian cells might be equipped for metabolism of complex-type glycans. 相似文献

Glycosylation, the addition of carbohydrates to a peptide backbone, is the most extensive cotranslational and posttranslational modification made to proteins by eukaryotic cells. The glycosylation profile of a recombinant glycoprotein can significantly affect its biological activity, which is particularly important when being used in human therapeutic applications. Therefore, defining glycan structures to ensure consistency of recombinant glycoproteins among different batches is critical. In this study we describe a method to prepare N-linked glycans derived from insect cell glycoproteins for structural analysis by capillary electrophoresis. Briefly, glycoproteins obtained from uninfected Spodoptera frugiperda Sf-9 insect cells were precipitated with ammonium sulfate and the glycans were chemically cleaved by hydrazinolysis. Following the regeneration of the glycan reducing terminal residue and the removal of contaminating proteins and peptides, the glycans were fluorescently labeled by reductive amination. Fluorescent labeling greatly enhanced the detection limit of the glycan structures determined by capillary electrophoresis. Five major glycan structures were found that migrated between tetra-mannosylated hexasaccharide and nonamannosylated undecasaccharide standards. Upon alpha-mannosidase digestion the number of glycan structures was reduced to two major structures with shorter migration times than the undigested glycans. None of the glycans were susceptible to hexosaminidase or galactosidase treatment. These results are consistent with the majority of previous results demonstrating hypermannosylated glycan structures in Sf-9 insect cells. 相似文献

In an attempt to evaluate the effects of the protein matrix on the specificity of glycoprotein processing in Golgi membranes, we have developed a model neoglycoprotein consisting of biotinylated glycans bound noncovalently to avidin (Chen, V. J., and Wold, F. (1986) Biochemistry 25, 939-444) with which the protein effect on processing can be evaluated as the difference in substrate efficiency between a free biotinylated glycan and the same biotinylated glycan bound to avidin. The avidin (streptavidin)-glycan complex stability was found to be proper for the experimental design; the complex remains intact for extended periods of incubation at the concentrations used, but the glycan can be completely liberated and recovered by heating the complex at 95 degrees C for 10 min in the presence of a 10-fold molar excess of biotin. By measuring the relative rates of [14C]sugar incorporation into the free and bound substrates it was demonstrated that the protein indeed influences the processing reactions; under conditions where free glycans such as biotinyl-Asn-Glc-NAc2-Man5 and 6-(biotinamido)hexanoyl-Asn-Glc-NAc2-Man5 could be converted to the biantennary products R-Asn-GlcNAc2-Man3-GlcNAc2-Gal2-sialyl2 in the presence of UDP-GlcNAc, UDP-Gal and CMP-sialic acid and Golgi enzymes, the avidin-bound derivative without the extension arm gave only low levels of product and the streptavidin-bound one remained unaltered. The presence of the extension arm in the substrates significantly improved the yield of some products in the complex, apparently by reducing or eliminating the avidin inhibition of the early steps, but not of the late ones. There are consequently two types of effect of the protein matrix on processing efficiency. One is expressed only when the glycan is close to the protein surface and affecting primarily early steps (mannosidases and GlcNAc transferases). The other is apparently independent of the proximity of the glycan core and the protein, and affects primarily late steps, in particular the incorporation of the second sialic acid residue into a biantennary complex glycan. 相似文献
