By and large, monosaccharide composition and linkage analyses of bacterial cell-surface carbohydrates are achieved by hydrolysis into the corresponding monomeric constituents, and characterization of these, or their derivatives, by chromatographic and spectrometric methods. Normally, these hydrolyses are carried out conveniently with trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) at high temperatures for long periods of time, for example, in 4M TFA at 100 degrees C for 5h in a heating block. In this study, using a closed-vessel system, we investigated the effectiveness and reliability of microwave-assisted TFA hydrolysis of bacterial lipopolysaccharides, capsule, and teichoic-acid polysaccharides that were variably composed of several glycoses. In all cases, we were able to establish that 5min of hydrolysis in the microwave at 120 degrees C with 4M TFA (measured pressure of 90psi) was sufficient time to obtain comparable results to those afforded by conventional hydrolysis. The same observation was made when fully methylated carbohydrates were hydrolyzed. The data obtained with our microwave system (Aurora Instruments MW600) showed that microwave-induced hydrolysis can be used with a high degree of confidence to carry out sugar composition analysis of complex bacterial glycans in markedly shorter periods of time. The results also suggested that non-thermal mechanistic factors must also be involved, at least in part, in accelerating the reaction rate of glycosidic hydrolysis. 相似文献

Carbohydrate analysis was made of yellow lupin seeds (cv. Juno) and triticale kernels (cv. Dagro), produced by plants exposed
to drought stress for 21 days after the initial flowering of the first node of lupin and initial earing of triticale. The
seeds of all experimental variants were harvest at full maturity, dried and stored in linen bags at 18–20 °C. Soluble carbohydrates
were extracted and analysed as described by Horbowicz and Obendorf (1994).
Gas chromatographic separation of carbohydrates showed that raffinose family oligosaccharides (RFO) were dominant in lupin
seeds. The other carbohydrates present were sucrose (10 %), cyclitols and galactosyl cyclitols (12–13 %). Soil drought resulted
in higher levels of verbascose, but decreased the quantities of the other carbohydrates in lupine seeds.
In triticale kernels, over 50 % of soluble sugars were composed of sucrose and maltose, while 17.7 % were raffinose and stachyose.
In response to drought the content of mono- and oligosaccharides declined. The decrease of soluble carbohydrates content in
seeds of lupin and triticale kernels has no effect on the seed germination and vigour. It is assumed that the changes in the
concentration of soluble sugars observed under drought may impair the storability of triticale kernels, but improve it for
lupine seeds. 相似文献

A gas chromatographic method for the quantitative determination of xylooligosaccharides up to the tetraose is described. For analysis, saccharides are reduced to the corresponding alditols with sodium borohydride and subsequently converted into their trifluoroacetyl (TFA) derivatives with sodium trifluoroacetate and trifluoroacetic anhydride (TFAA) at 70°C for 15 min. Excess TFAA is evaporated to dryness, then the TFA derivatives are dissolved in methylene chloride for injection into the chromatograph. Quantitative data are obtained in an overall working time of 2~3 hr per sample. The average recoveries inherent in this method are comparable to those obtained by paper chromatography. 相似文献

The general principles and practical aspects of preparative high-performance liquid chromatography (l.c.) of mono- and di-saccharides, sugars acids, lactones, and N-acetylated amino sugar derivatives are described. Milligram to gram quantities of these carbohydrates were isolated on semi-preparative (0.78 X 30 cm) or preparative (approximately 2.0 X 30 cm) columns packed with aminopropyl silica gel provided better resolution of individual mono- and di-saccharides, but columns of cation-exchange resin had higher capacity and were more durable and economical to use. Preparative, cation-exchange columns were operated at flow rates of less than 5 mL/min and pressures of approximately 1-2 MPa, allowing them to be used on unmodified analytical l.c. systems. Details are given for the efficient packing, use, and care of these columns, and on the effects of column selectivity, packing technique, and sample size on chromatographic resolution. Isolation of naturally occurring sugars from biological sources on a laboratory-packed column is described. 相似文献

A sensitive (0.01-1 nmol) method has been developed for the analysis of polyamines in higher plant extracts based on high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) of their benzoyl derivatives (Redmond, Tseng 1979 J Chromatogr 170: 479-481). Putrescine, cadaverine, agmatine, spermidine, spermine, and the less common polyamines nor-spermidine and homospermidine can be completely resolved by reverse phase HPLC, isocratic elution with methanol:water (64%, v/v) through a 5-μm C18 column, and detection at 254 nm. The method can be directly applied to crude plant extracts, and it is not subject to interference by carbohydrates and phenolics. A good quantitative correlation was found between HPLC analysis of benzoylpolyamines and thin layer chromatography of their dansyl derivatives. With the HPLC method, polyamine titers have been reproducibly estimated for various organs of amaranth, Lemna, oat, pea, Pharbitis, and potato. The analyses correlate well with results of thin layer chromatography determinations. 相似文献

A highly effective procedure for fragmenting the Neurospora crassa plasma membrane H+-ATPase and purifying the resulting peptides is described. The enzyme is cleaved with trypsin to form a limit digest containing both hydrophobic and hydrophilic peptides, and the hydrophobic and hydrophilic peptides are then separated by extraction with an aqueous ammonium bicarbonate solution. The hydrophilic peptides are fractionated by Sephadex G-25 column chromatography into three pools, and the individual peptides in each pool are purified by high-performance liquid chromatography. The hydrophobic peptides are dissolved in neat trifluoroacetic acid (TFA), diluted with chloroform-methanol (1:1), and the hydrophobic peptide solution thus obtained is then fractionated by Sephadex LH-60 column chromatography in chloroform-methanol (1:1) containing 0.1% TFA. The recoveries in all of the above procedures are greater than 90%. The N-terminal amino acid sequences of three of the hydrophobic H+-ATPase peptides purified by this methodology have been determined, which establishes the position of these peptides in the 100,000 Da polypeptide chain by reference to the published gene sequence, and documents the sequencability of the hydrophobic peptides purified in this way. This methodology should facilitate the identification of a variety of amino acid residues important for the structure and function of the H+-ATPase molecule. Moreover, the overall strategy for working with the protein chemistry of the H+-ATPase should be applicable to other amphiphilic integral membrane proteins as well. 相似文献

A method is described for determination of carbohydrate and protein contents of glycoproteins separated by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and then electroblotted onto polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF) membranes. Blots were stained, and appropriate pieces of PVDF membranes were excised, destained, and subjected to sequential hydrolysis with 0.2 M trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) for 1 h at 80 degrees C, then with 2 M TFA for 4 h at 100 degrees C, and finally with 6 M HCl at 100 degrees C for 24 h to release sialic acids, neutral sugars with hexosamines, and amino acids, respectively. In some instances preliminary methanolysis was used. Carbohydrates including sialic acids were quantitated by high pH anion exchange chromatography with pulsed amperometric detection. Protein content of the bands was determined as amino acids by the fluorescamine or ninhydrin method. In the calculation of results proper adjustments were made for small amounts of fucose released by hydrolysis with 0.2 M TFA at 80 degrees C, and for partial degradation of protein during hydrolysis with 2 M TFA at 100 degrees C. Recoveries of amino acids from hydrolysates of glycoproteins that had been electroblotted onto PVDF membranes equaled those of carbohydrates. This was possible because of preliminary hydrolysis of glycoproteins with TFA, as well as washing of wet, instead of dried, PVDF membranes after hydrolysis with 6 M HCl. The two modifications increased yields of amino acids by about 30%. The method was successfully applied to the determination of molar and weight percentage composition of human transferrin, band 3 protein, glycophorin A, and alpha(1)-acid glycoprotein. In each case the results obtained for directly hydrolyzed and electrophoresed/electroblotted glycoproteins were practically identical. We also determined the glucosamine content of band 4.1 protein of erythrocytes. 相似文献

Synthetic mixtures of saturated and unsaturated monoethers and monoesters of 1,2-ethanediol, ranging in chain length from 12 to 20, were analyzed as acetates, trifluoroacetates (TFA), and trimethylsilyl (TMS) ethers by gas chromatography on polar and nonpolar liquid phases. Acetates, TFA derivatives, and TMS derivatives of the glycol ethers were eluted ahead of the corresponding glycol ester derivatives on both liquid phases. The elution order of derivatives of the same compound was found to be TMS derivative before TFA derivative before acetate on the polar liquid phase, and TFA derivative before TMS derivative before acetate on the nonpolar liquid phase. Elution orders relative to methyl stearate were also determined. With one exception, all of the derivatives, and both liquid phases, were found suitable for the quantitative analysis of diol monoethers and monoesters. 相似文献

Gas chromatographic analysis was employed to demonstrate in situ cyclitol utilization in aqueous extracts of redwood by isolates of Klebsiella, Enterobacter, and several other genera of gram-negative bacteria. In aqueous redwood extracts, all but one of the Klebsiella and Enterobacter isolates tested reached densities exceeding 5.0 x 10(6) cells/ml within 4 days, and all utilized pinitol and sequoyitol. Other enteric bacteria did not utilize cyclitols in this extract. A defined minimal medium, containing the carbohydrates and cyclitols (including myo-inositol) in redwood, was used to determine which carbon sources are preferentially utilized by Klebsielleae and other bacteria. It was found that D-glucose and L-arabinose were consumed by Klebsiella before the three cyclitols were utilized. Pinitol utilization proceeded in more slowly than that of sequoyitol and myo-inositol. Cyclitol utilization in the defined medium was also observed for Yersinia, Erwinia, and Salmonella. Escherichia coli isolates did not utilize cyclitol compounds. The ability to use cyclitols as a sole source of carbon can explain the high cell densities of Klebsielleae in redwood water reservoirs and in redwood lumber. 相似文献

A high-performance liquid chromatography method has been developed for fractionating the protein components of the lung's extracellular lining fluid, as sampled by bronchoalveolar lavage. With this method, 10 ml (or less) of rat bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) in phosphate-buffered saline can be quantitatively analyzed rapidly and reproducibly. This volume (25% of the lavage fluid volume from one rat using a standardized lavage technique) is made 0.2% with respect to trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) and pumped through a microBondapak C18 Radial-PAK HPLC column equilibrated with H2O/0.2% TFA. Six fractions are then eluted with a series of acetonitrile gradients and isocratic steps that progress from H2O/0.2% TFA to 65% CH3 CN/0.2% TFA. Following this, 5 additional fractions are eluted with methanol. All 11 fractions are detected by monitoring the column effluents at 206 nm and can be recovered by lyophilization since all the components of the HPLC solvent system are volatile. Nine of the 11 fractions were found to contain protein. Three of the fractions contained proteins common to the blood compartment. The largest fraction of these was albumin, followed by a fraction containing immunoglobulins. Six other protein fractions appeared to be derived from the cells of the lung inasmuch as they were not detected in plasma. Two fractions contained no protein or phospholipids, whereas the most hydrophobic protein fraction did contain phospholipids. A major phospholipid fraction containing no protein eluted early in the chromatogram and was not detectable at 206 nm. This HPLC procedure offers significant utility for identifying and quantifying alterations in several BALF constituents during the development and progression of environmentally induced lung diseases as well as other pulmonary disorders. 相似文献

A highly sensitive and simple fluorimetric method for the determination of free and total polyamines, spermidine, spermine, putrescine and cadaverine, in human serum by high-performance liquid chromatography is described. The polyamines, obtained after clean-up of deproteinized serum by Cellex P column chromatography, are converted to their fluorescamine derivatives in the presence of nickel ion which inhibits the reaction of interfering amines with fluorescamine, and the derivatives are separated simultaneously by reversed-phase chromatography (LiChrosorb RP-18) with a linear gradient elution. The lower limits of detection are 10 and 5 pmole for spermine and the others in 0.5 ml of serum, respectively. 相似文献

A simple procedure for the quantitative analysis of trifluoroscetic acid (TFA) in urine and serum from patients narcotized with halothane is described. This involves addition of sodium hydroxide to the body fluid, evaporation of the aqueous phase and esterification of TFA in concentrated sulphuric acid with 2,2,2-trichloroethanol. The gaseous phases above the reaction mixture were then analyzed by gas chromatography with a nickel-63 electron-capture detector. The detection limit was 1 μg of TFA per mililitre of body fluid (200 μg of body fluid are analysed) and the relative standard deviation was ±6%. Patients treated with ethrane, another commercial ansesthetic, did not produce any detectable TFA. 相似文献

Quantitative determination of phenyl isothiocyanate-derivatized amino sugars and amino sugar alcohols by high-performance liquid chromatography 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Simple and rapid methods for the preparation of phenylthiocarbamyl (PTC) derivatives of amino sugars and amino sugar alcohols and their quantitative determination with high sensitivity (less than 10 pmol) by C18 reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography are described. Rapid sample preparation of the phenyl isothiocyanate (PITC)-derivatized amino sugars and amino sugar alcohols was achieved by a simple extraction of the reaction mixture with chloroform to remove the excess PITC and its adducts. Baseline separation of the PTC derivatives of amino sugars and amino sugar alcohols was obtained within 30 min, using a simple solvent system consisting of 0.2% each of n-butylamine, phosphoric acid, and tetrahydrofuran. The mobile phase containing n-butylamine, in conjunction with a C18 stationary phase, mimics the conditions for the separation of carbohydrates on an amino-bonded column. GlcNH2 and GalNH2 derived from the initial protein-sugar linkages were also separated from the amino acids for quantitative estimation of sugar chains in glycoproteins. Amino sugar alcohols gave single reaction products with PITC while the reaction with amino sugars was accompanied by the formation of secondary products. Apparently the secondary products were formed in an acid-catalyzed intramolecular cyclization of the PTC-hexosamines involving the aldehyde functional group. Conditions were developed to stop the transformations and maintain the stability of PTC derivatives for their convenient determination by HPLC. 相似文献

Ion-exchange chromatography has been applied to purification of unsaturated oligoglucuronans. After an isocratic elution on a strong anion-exchange column, the collected fractions were desalted by low pressure size exclusion chromatography. However, this efficient separation was limited by the time required to desalt. So, we developed a reversed-phase chromatography method using back ionization of oligomers. Two C18 columns were tested with trifluoroacetic acid (TFA 0.7%) as eluent. Different selectivities and column stabilities were observed in this acidic condition. The scale up for semi-preparative applications enabled us to recover pure unsaturated oligoglucuronans without desalting step. 相似文献

Affinity chromatography is routinely used mostly on a preparative scale to isolate different biomolecules such as proteins and carbohydrates. To this end a variety of proteins is in common use as ligands. To extend the arsenal of binders intended for separation of carbohydrates, we have explored the use of carbohydrate-binding modules (CBM) in affinity chromatography. The thermostable protein CBM4-2 and two variants (X-6 and A-6) thereof, selected from a newly constructed combinatorial library, were chosen for this study. The CBM4-2 predominantly binds to xylans but also crossreacts with glucose-based oligomers. The two CBM-variants X-6 and A-6 had been selected for binding to xylan and Avicel (a mixture of amorphous and microcrystalline cellulose), respectively. To assess the ability of these proteins to separate carbohydrates, they were immobilized to macroporous microparticulate silica and analyses were conducted at temperatures ranging from 25 to 65 degrees C. With the given set of CBM-variants, we were able to separate cello- and xylo-oligomers under isocratic conditions. The affinities of the CBMs for their targets were weak (in the mM-microM range) and by adjusting the column temperature we could optimize peak resolution and chromatographic retention times. The access to thermostable CBM-variants with diverse affinities and selectivities holds promise to be an efficient tool in the field of affinity chromatography for the separation of carbohydrates. 相似文献

A novel method for the analysis of Ser/Thr-linked sugar chains was made possible by the virtue of unique anthranilic acid (AA, 2-aminobenzoic acid [2AA]) chemistry for labeling carbohydrates in aqueous salt solutions (K. R. Anumula, Anal. Biochem. 350 (2006) 1-23). The protocol for profiling of Ser/Thr carbohydrates by hydrazinolysis was made simple by eliminating intermediary isolation steps involved in a sample preparation such as desalting and various chromatographic purification schemes. A 6-h hydrazinolysis was carried out at 60 degrees C for O-linked oligosaccharides and at 95 degrees C for total oligosaccharides (N-linked with some O-linked). Following evaporation of hydrazine (<10 min), the oligosaccharides were N-acetylated and derivatized with AA in the same reaction mixture containing salts. Presumably, the glycosyl-hydrazines/hydrazones present in the mixture did not interfere with AA labeling. Because AA is the most fluorescent and highly reactive tag for labeling carbohydrates, the procedures described are suitable for the analysis of a limited amount of samples ( approximately 5 microg) by the current high-resolution high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) methods. HPLC conditions developed for the separation of O-linked sugar chains based on size on an amide column were satisfactory for quantitative profiling and characterization. Common O-linked sugar chains found in fetuin, equine chorionic gonadotropin, and glycophorin can be analyzed in less than 50 min. In addition, these fast profiling methods were comparable to profiling by PNGase F (peptide N-glycosidase from Flavobacterium meningosepticum) digestion in terms of time, effort, and simplicity and also were highly reproducible for routine testing. The procedures for the release of sugar chains by hydrazinolysis at the microgram level, labeling with fluorescent tag AA, and profiling by HPLC should be useful in characterization of carbohydrates found in glycoproteins. 相似文献

A fast and sensitive method for the determination of putrescine, spermidine, spermine and ammonia by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with dabsyl chloride is described. These compounds are converted to their chromophoric dabsyl derivatives and are separated by a normal-phase chromatographic column (μPorasil, 10 μm) with 2% acetone in chloroform as isocratic mobile phase. The sensitivity of the method is 20 pmoles. The present method was shown to be a straightforward procedure for estimating polyamines in various rat tissues.The chromophoric derivatives of polyamines are also well separated by thin-layer chromatography (TLC) on silica gel, and the combination of the HPLC and TLC procedures provides a reliable method for qualitative and quantitative analysis of polyamines. 相似文献
