乙醇激活对小鼠透明带糖蛋白的生化修饰

为研究乙醇激活对小鼠卵透明带的修饰,用SDS-PAGE和HPLC分析未受精卵和乙醇激活卵的透明带糖蛋白。SDS-PAGE结果显示,未受精卵和乙醇激活卵的透明带糖蛋白成分的电泳带型相似。只是在还原电泳时,乙醇激活卵透明带样品中分离出一条约20kD的特异条带。未受精卵和乙醇激活卵的ZP3成分没有明显差异。HPLC结果显示：乙醇激活卵透明带有3个O-连单糖的洗脱峰,与未受精卵透明带的3个O-连单糖洗脱峰很相似;但是,乙醇激活卵透明带有另外两个O-连寡糖洗脱峰,RT值分别为12.09和8.89,未受精卵样品只有一个RT值为9.14的洗脱峰,他们代表一些O-连寡糖或寡糖混合物。可见,乙醇激活对ZP3多肽链和O-连单糖没有明显的影响。主要的修饰作用在O-连寡糖上。     

Fractionation of sialyl oligosaccharides of human milk by ion-exchange chromatography

The sialyl oligosaccharides of human milk are partially separated by ion-exchange chromatography on DEAE-cellulose in acetic acid-pyridine buffers, pH 5.4. One neutral and seven sialyl oligosaccharide fractions are obtained in essentially quantitative yields. The method permits the large-scale preparation of sialyl oligosaccharide fractions from which individual sialyl oligosaccharides may be purified without the necessity of preparative high-voltage paper electrophoresis.     

Purification and molecular characterization of rat intestinal brush border membrane dipeptidyl aminopeptidase IV

Dipeptidyl aminopeptidase IV (EC 3.4.14.-) was solubilized from a particulate membrane fraction of rat intestinal mucosa with Triton X-100. The solubilized enzyme was purified to homogeneity following ammonium sulfate fractionation, chromatography on DEAE-Sepharose and hydroxyapatite, gel filtration and preparative polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The final enzyme preparation had a specific activity of 55 units/mg protein representing a 1373 fold purification over the starting material. Purity was judged by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and double immunodiffusion. The molecular weight of the native undenatured enzyme was estimated to be 230000 by gel filtration and polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Electrophoresis under denaturing conditions (sodium dodecyl sulfate) indicated that the protein consists of two identical 98 kDa subunits. Dipeptidyl aminopeptidase IV is a glycoprotein containing approx. 8% carbohydrate by weight. A detailed analysis of the individual sugar components demonstrated that fucose, galactose, glucose, mannose, sialic acid and hexosamine sugars were present. The nature of the constituent asparagine linked oligosaccharide side chains was further examined following cleavage from the peptide backbone by hydrazinolysis. Following high voltage paper electrophoresis approx. 80% of the isolated oligosaccharide was found with the neutral fraction while the remaining 20% consisted of a single acidic component. Gel filtration of the neutral oligosaccharide fraction indicated that it contains approx. 19 sugar residues.     

Structure of the oligosaccharide of human J chain.

The complete structure of the oligosaccharide moiety of J chain isolated from a Waldenstr?ms macroglobulin Wa has been established. The oligosaccharide is present in three forms differing in the amount of sialic acid and designated J-A, J-B, and J-C. The structure and proportion of each of these is: formula : (see text) : Removal of the oligosaccharide moiety with glycosidases results in an increased mobility of J chain in sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis corresponding to a shift in apparent molecular weight from 23,500 to 19,500. The preparation and utilization of iodinated glycopeptides for sequence analysis is presented.     

Structural studies on the carbohydrate moieties of rat liver cathepsins B and H

Cathepsins B and H from rat liver contain one asparagine-linked sugar chain in each molecule. The sugar chains were liberated from the polypeptide portions by hydrazinolysis followed by N-acetylation and NaB3H4 reduction. Paper electrophoresis of the radioactive oligosaccharide fractions revealed that they were mixtures of neutral oligosaccharides only. After fractionation by gel filtration the structure of each oligosaccharide was studied by sequential exoglycosidase digestion in combination with methylation analysis. The sugar chain of cathepsin H was a high mannose type oligosaccharide which varied in size from 5 to 9 mannose residues; on the other hand the major oligosaccharide of cathepsin B was a tetrasaccharide whose structure was Manalpha 1----6Manbeta 1----4GlcNAcbeta 1----4GlcNAc.     

Carbohydrate structures of HVJ (Sendai virus) glycoproteins

The carbohydrate structures of two membrane glycoproteins (HANA protein and F protein) of HVJ have been determined on materials purified from virions grown in the allantoic sac of embryonated chicken eggs. Both glycoproteins contain fucose, mannose, galactose, and glucosamine but not galactosamine, indicating that their sugar chains are exclusively of the asparagine-linked type. The radioactive oligosaccharide fractions obtained from the two glycoproteins by hydrazinolysis followed by NaB[3H]4 reduction gave quite distinct fractionation patterns after paper electrophoresis. More than 75% of the oligosaccharides from F protein were acidic and separated into at least four components by paper electrophoresis. Only 18% of the oligosaccharide from HANA protein was an acidic single component. These acidic oligosaccharides could not be converted to neutral oligosaccharides by sialidase digestion. Structural studies of the neutral oligosaccharide fractions from HANA and F proteins revealed that both of them are mixtures of a series of high mannose type oligosaccharides and of complex type oligosaccharides with Gal beta 1 leads to (Fuc alpha 1 leads to 3) GlcNAc group in their outer chain moieties.     

Positional isomers of sulfated oligosaccharides obtained from agarans and carrageenans: preparation and capillary electrophoresis separation

Partial reductive hydrolysis was used to produce oligosaccharide alditols from repetitive sulfated galactans obtained from four Rhodophyta species: kappa-carrageenan (from Kappaphycus alvarezii), theta-carrageenan (Gigartina skottsbergii-alkali-treated lambda-carrageenan), agarose 6-sulfate (Gracilaria domingensis), and pyruvylated agarose 2-sulfate (Acanthophora spicifera-alkali-treated pyruvylated agaran sulfate). Each hydrolyzate was submitted to anion-exchange and gel-filtration chromatography, and the isolated oligosaccharide alditols were identified by 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopy and by ESI mass spectrometry. The positional isomers of the sulfated oligosaccharide alditols were then completely resolved by capillary electrophoresis in a borate buffer. Attempts to correlate the availability of the hydroxyl groups for borate complexation with the relative migration of the oligosaccharides are presented.     

The occurrence of glycine in bacterial lipopolysaccharides

Abstract The aminoacyl analysis of endotoxic lipopolysaccharides (LPS) isolated from several bacteria revealed essential amounts of glycine, among the inherent LPS components. Significant amounts of the glycine was detected in lipopolysaccharides isolated from over 30 strains of Escherichia, Salmonella, Hafnia, Citrobacter and Shigella species. Glycine as a single amino acid was found only in a core part of LPS. Molar ratio of glycine in core oligosaccharide fraction ranged from 0.2 to 0.6 per 3 heptoses. The oligosaccharide enriched in glycine was isolated using the HPLC. The amino acid appeared to be terminally located in a core oligosaccharide. The labelling of the lipopolysaccharide cores was achieved when the bacteria were cultivated in the presence of radioactive [¹⁴C]glycine. The labelled core oligosaccharide released the radioactivity during treatment with mild alkali or acid (0.1 M NaOH or HCl, 100°C, 4 h). The radioactivity in SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis migrated exclusively with LPS. The results indicate that amino acid is an integral constituent of core oligosaccharide in lipopolysaccharide.     

Separation of cyanogen bromide-cleaved peptides of the vesicular stomatitis virus glycoprotein and analysis of their carbohydrate content.

The purified glycoprotein of vesicular stomatitis virus was cleaved at methionine residues with cyanogen bromide, and the resultant peptides were analyzed by two-dimensional electrophoresis in sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gels. Five peptide bands were resolved in cylindrical gels run under nonreducing conditions. After reduction and electrophoresis in the second dimension, 11 peptides were resolved, indicating that several were originally linked by disulfide bonds. Double-label experiments indicated that at least 8 of the 11 peptides were unique. The major oligosaccharide chains were attached to two different cyanogen bromide peptides. In addition, six other peptides contained small amounts of sialic acid, fucose, and mannose, indicating that the glycoprotein contains more carbohydrate chains than the two major ones which have been reported previously.     

A general method for the detection and mapping of submicrogram quantities of glycosaminoglycan oligosaccharides on polyacrylamide gels by sequential staining with azure A and ammoniacal silver.

A sensitive method has been developed for the visualization of nonradiolabeled glycosaminoglycan oligosaccharides resolved by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis using fixation with azure A followed by staining with ammoniacal silver. This method, which can detect as little as 1-2 ng of a single oligosaccharide species, can be used to stain a few micrograms of a complex oligosaccharide mixture. The combination of gradient polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and sequential azure A/silver staining can be applied to the analysis of all the complex glycosaminoglycans (i.e., heparin, heparan sulfate, chondroitin/dermatan sulfate, keratan sulfate) and hyaluronate, as well as to comparisons of specificities of the glycosaminoglycan-degrading enzymes. This procedure may be particularly valuable in situations where the availability of glycosaminoglycan is very limited and/or where radiolabeling is impractical or undesirable.
