Clusterin is a ubiquitous, heterodimeric glycoprotein with multiple possible functions that are likely influenced by glycosylation. Identification of oligosaccharide attachment sites and structural characterization of oligosaccharides in human serum clusterin has been performed by mass spectrometry and Edman degradation. Matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization mass spectrometry revealed two molecular weight species of holoclusterin (58,505 +/- 250 and 63,507 +/- 200). Mass spectrometry also revealed molecular heterogeneity associated with both the alpha and beta subunits of clusterin, consistent with the presence of multiple glycoforms. The data indicate that clusterin contains 17-27% carbohydrate by weight, the alpha subunit contains 0-30% carbohydrate and the beta subunit contains 27-30% carbohydrate. Liquid chromatography electrospray mass spectrometry with stepped collision energy scanning was used to selectively identify and preparatively fractionate tryptic glycopeptides. Edman sequence analysis was then used to confirm the identities of the glycopeptides and to define the attachment sites within each peptide. A total of six N-linked glycosylation sites were identified, three in the alpha subunit (alpha 64N, alpha 81N, alpha 123N) and three in the beta subunit (beta 64N, beta 127N, and beta 147N). Seven different possible types of oligosaccharide structures were identified by mass including: a monosialobiantennary structure, bisialobiantennary structures without or with one fucose, trisialotriantennary structures without or with one fucose, and possibly a trisialotriantennary structure with two fucose and/or a tetrasialotriantennary structure. Site beta 64N exhibited the least glycosylation diversity, with two detected types of oligosaccharides, and site beta 147N exhibited the greatest diversity, with five or six detected types of oligosaccharides. Overall, the most abundant glycoforms detected were bisialobiantennary without fucose and the least abundant were monosialobiantennary, trisialotriantennary with two fucose and/or tetrasialotriantennary. Clusterin peptides accounting for 99% of the primary structure were identified from analysis of the isolated alpha and beta subunits, including all Ser- and Thr-containing peptides. No evidence was found for the presence of O-linked or sulfated oligosaccharides. The results provide a molecular basis for developing a better understanding of clusterin structure-function relationships and the role clusterin glycosylation plays in physiological function. 相似文献

Direct microsequence analysis of polypeptides using an improved sequenator, a nonprotein carrier (polybrene), and high pressure liquid chromatography 总被引:54,自引:0,他引:54
We have combined the use of a nonprotein carrier (Polybrene), high pressure liquid chromatography, and modifications in Edman chemistry with the improvements of a commercial spinning cup sequenator suggested by Wittmann-Liebold [Wittmann-Liebold, B. (1973) Hoppe-Seyler's Z. Physiol. Chem. 354, 1415] to analyze amino acid phenylthiohydantoins obtained from automated Edman degradation of microquantities of polypeptide directly without the use of radiolabel. This approach has allowed us to determine the sequence of the N-terminal 47 residues of sperm whale myoglobin starting with 200 pmol of protein, 77 residues of an antibody light chain with 5 nmole of protein, and 54 residues of an antibody heavy chain with 8 nmol of protein. In addition, we completely sequenced a hydrophobic 14-residue peptide at the 1.5-nmol level. Our technique of direct analysis for microsamples is capable of providing routine, extende N-terminal sequence analysis for nanomole and subnanomole levels of polypeptides and protines, and it also is applicable to analysis of more classical sample quantities. 相似文献

Glycosylation sites and site-specific glycosylation in human Tamm- Horsfall glycoprotein 总被引:4,自引:1,他引:3
The N-glycosylation sites of human Tamm-Horsfall glycoprotein from one
healthy male donor have been characterized, based on an approach using
endoproteinase Glu-C (V-8 protease, Staphylococcus aureus ) digestion and a
combination of chromatographic techniques, automated Edman sequencing, and
fast atom bombardment mass spectrometry. Seven out of the eight potential
N-glycosylation sites, namely, Asn52, Asn56, Asn208, Asn251, Asn298,
Asn372, and Asn489, turned out to be glycosylated, and the potential
glycosylation site at Asn14, being close to the N-terminus, is not used.
The carbohydrate microheterogeneity on three of the glycosylation sites was
studied in more detail by high-pH anion-exchange chromatographic profiling
and 500 MHz1H-NMR spectroscopy. Glycosylation site Asn489 contains mainly
di- and tri-charged oligosaccharides which comprise, among others, the
GalNAc4 S (beta1-4)GlcNAc terminal sequence. Only glycosylation site Asn251
bears oligomannose-type carbohydrate chains ranging from Man5GlcNAc2to
Man8GlcNAc2, in addition to a small amount of complex- type structures.
Profiling of the carbohydrate moieties of Asn208 indicates a large
heterogeneity, similar to that established for native human Tamm-Horsfall
glycoprotein, namely, multiply charged complex-type carbohydrate
structures, terminated by sulfate groups, sialic acid residues, and/or the
Sda-determinant.

The amino acid sequence of human lymphotoxin derived from a 1788 lymphoblastoid cell line was determined. Peptide fragments obtained by trypsin, lysine-C peptidase, cyanogen bromide, and acetic acid cleavage of the intact protein were purified by reverse-phase high performance liquid chromatography and analyzed by amino acid composition and by automated Edman degradation. The protein is 171 amino acids long with a molecular weight of 18,664. It contains one asparagine-linked glycosylation site and lacks cysteine. The salient features of the amino acid sequence of lymphotoxin are described. 相似文献

Amino acid sequence of bovine osteoinductive factor 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The complete amino acid sequence of bovine osteoinductive factor (OIF) was determined by automated Edman degradation of S-pyridylethylated bovine OIF and selected fragments. Cleavage with endoproteinase Lys-C, endoproteinase Glu-C, or endoproteinase Asp-N established all fragments in an unambiguous sequence. Bovine OIF contains 105 residues with a calculated molecular weight of 12,055. It is a single chain polypeptide containing two intramolecularly linked cysteines at residues 62 and 95. Two asparagine-linked glycosylation sites at positions 52 and 65 were found by comparing sequence data and peptide profiles of native and deglycosylated OIF fragments. The amino acid sequence of OIF has no homology to other reported proteins. 相似文献

Complete amino acid sequence of a Lolium perenne (perennial rye grass) pollen allergen, Lol p II 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
The complete amino acid sequence of a Lolium perenne (rye grass) pollen allergen, Lol p II was determined by automated Edman degradation of the protein and selected fragments. Cleavage of the protein by enzymatic and chemical techniques established an unambiguous sequence for the protein. Lol p II contains 97 amino acid residues, with a calculated molecular weight of 10,882. The protein lacks cysteine and glutamine and shows no evidence of glycosylation. Theoretical predictions by Fraga's (Fraga, S. (1982) Can. J. Chem. 60, 2606-2610) and Hopp and Woods' (Hopp, T. P., and Woods, K. R. (1981) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 78, 3824-3828) methods indicate the presence of four hydrophilic regions, which may contribute to sequential or parts of conformational B-cell epitopes. Analysis of amphipathic regions by Berzofsky's method indicates the presence of a highly amphipathic region, which may contain, or contribute to, an Ia/T-cell epitope. This latter segment of Lol p II was found to be highly homologous with an antibody-binding segment of the major rye allergen Lol p I and may explain why immune responsiveness to both the allergens is associated with HLA-DR3. 相似文献

Structural studies on equine glycoprotein hormones. Amino acid sequence of equine lutropin beta-subunit 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
The amino acid sequence was determined for equine lutropin beta (eLH beta). Large fragments were derived from reduced, carboxymethylated eLH beta by digestion with Staphylococcus aureus V8 protease, by cyanogen bromide cleavage, and by cleavage of acid-labile Asp-Pro bonds. The fragments were purified by gel filtration and high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The fragments were sequenced by automated Edman degradation to establish the primary structure of eLH beta. Some peptides were further digested with chymotrypsin and the resulting peptides purified by HPLC. In addition to sequencing by automated Edman degradation, these were also sequenced by the complementary 5-dimethylaminonaphthalene-1-sulfonyl-Edman procedure which enabled us to directly identify glycosylated amino acids. The eLH beta subunit is a glycoprotein of 149 amino acids containing both N- and O-linked oligosaccharides. It possesses a COOH-terminal extension similar to that seen in human chorionic gonadotropin. Carboxypeptidase Y digestions suggest that the COOH terminus is blocked by glycosylation. Interestingly, the amino acid sequence of eLH beta is identical to that of equine chorionic gonadotropin beta (Sugino, H., Bousfield, G. R., Moore, W. T., and Ward, D. N. (1987)J. Biol. Chem. 262, 8603-8609). 相似文献

Dalcochinin-8'-O-beta-glucoside beta-glucosidase (dalcochinase) from the Thai rosewood (Dalbergia cochinchinensis Pierre) has aglycone specificity for isoflavonoids and can hydrolyze both beta-glucosides and beta-fucosides. To determine its structure and evolutionary lineage, the sequence of the enzyme was determined by peptide sequencing followed by PCR cloning. The cDNA included a reading frame coding for 547 amino acids including a 23 amino acid propeptide and a 524 amino acid mature protein. The sequences determined at peptide level were found in the cDNA sequence, indicating the sequence obtained was indeed the dalcochinase enzyme. The mature enzyme is 60% identical to the cyanogenic beta-glucosidase from white clover glycosyl hydrolase family 1, for which an X-ray crystal structure has been solved. Based on this homology, residues which may contribute to the different substrate specificities of the two enzymes were identified. Eight putative glycosylation sites were identified, and one was confirmed to be glycosylated by Edman degradation and mass spectrometry. The protein was expressed as a prepro-alpha-mating factor fusion in Pichia pastoris, and the activity of the secreted enzyme was characterized. The recombinant enzyme and the enzyme purified from seeds showed the same K(m) for pNP-glucoside and pNP-fucoside, had the same ratio of V(max) for these substrates, and similarly hydrolyzed the natural substrate, dalcochinin-8'-beta-glucoside. 相似文献

Here we report the use of automated Edman degradation of covalently linked glycopeptides to identify positively the sites of O- and N-glycosylation. The O-glycosidic linkage of carbohydrate to the hydroxy amino acids Ser and Thr is a major form of post-translational modification. However, unlike Asn-linked glycosylation, which is identified by the consensus sequence Asn-Xaa-Thr/Ser, no simple motif conferring O-linkage to Thr and Ser has been described. After sequencing glycopeptides derived from two cell surface glycoproteins, a Thr-O-glycosylation motif of Xaa-Pro-Xaa-Xaa, where at least one Xaa = Thr(Sac), has been defined. This motif predicts the site(s) of Pro- associated Thr-O-glycosylation in O-glycosylated proteins, although it is clear that there are also other forms of Thr-O-glycosylation not associated with Pro. 相似文献

The thrombin-like serine protease and antithrombotic agent, Ancrod, was rapidly purified from the crude venom of Akistrodon rhodostoma by agmatine-Sepharose affinity chromatography followed by MonoQ anion exchange chromatography. N-Terminal sequencing and analysis of overlapping proteolytic fragments of purified Ancrod by automated Edman degradation in combination with tandem mass spectroscopy allowed the determination of the 234 amino acid sequence of the protease. Glycosylation sites at all five canonical N-linked glycosylation sites were inferred from the appearance of blank sequencer cycles in the amino acid sequence and were confirmed by mass spectroscopic analysis of the N-glycanase-treated peptides. Monoclonal antibodies raised against the denatured protein and HF-deglycosylated protein recognized Ancrod on Western blots. Sequence comparison to other thrombin-like serine proteases and reptilian fibrinogenases revealed a number of similarities, most notably the catalytic triad and many conserved cysteine positions. 相似文献

Human germ cell alkaline phosphatase (GCAP), which shares 98% amino acid sequence identity with the placental AP (PLAP), is expressed by malignant trophoblasts. Protein sequence analysis suggests that the Ser residue at position 92 is the putative active site of GCAP which contains two recognition sequences (Asn122-Thr-Thr124 and Asn249-Arg-Thr251) for asparagine-linked glycosylation. To examine the roles of the Ser residue and glycan moieties on GCAP activity and processing, we altered the GCAP cDNA by site-directed mutagenesis and expressed the GCAP mutants in COS-1 cells. Substitution of Ser-92 with either a Thr (S92T) or an Ala (S92A) residue yielded a GCAP devoid of catalytic activity, suggesting that the Ser codon 92 is the active site of GCAP. Six GCAP mutants that lack one or both glycosylation sites were constructed by substituting either Asn-122 or Asn-249 with an Asp residue or either Thr-124 or Thr-251 with an Ala residue. The mature GCAP migrated as a 65-kDa product, but GCAP mutants lacking one or both glycosylation sites migrated as 62- or 58-kDa polypeptides, respectively, indicating that both sites were glycosylated. All six glycosylated mutants were active enzymatically and, in addition, were equally sensitive to heat, L-leucine, and EDTA inhibition as the parental enzyme. GCAP as well as its two active-site and six glycosylation mutants could be released from the plasma membrane of transfected COS-1 cells by the proteinase bromelain.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Two major glycoproteins, designated PSP-I and PSP-II, were purified from porcine seminal plasma by ammonium sulfate fractionation, CM-cellulose chromatography, gel filtration on Sephadex G-75 (superfine), and reverse phase high performance liquid chromatography. These two proteins exist in several forms differing mainly in the carbohydrate moiety. The complete amino acid sequence of PSP-I has been determined by automated Edman degradation of peptides generated by proteolytic digestion and cyanogen bromide cleavage. The protein is 109 residues long and has a single glycosylation site at the asparagine residue at position 47. In addition, the N-terminal sequence of PSP-II has also been determined. PSP-I is a unique protein; a sequence homology search using the protein data base did not reveal any significant homology with other proteins. PSP-II shares 50% sequence homology with a family of zona pellucida-binding glycoproteins at the N-terminus. 相似文献

Sequence analysis of bovine lens aldose reductase 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

The covalent structure of bovine lens aldose reductase (alditol-NADP+ oxidoreductase, EC 1.1.1.21) was determined by sequence analysis of peptides generated by specific and chemical cleavage of the homogeneous apoenzyme. Peptides, purified by reverse-phase high performance liquid chromatography were subjected to compositional analysis and sequencing by gas-phase automated Edman degradation. Aldose reductase was found to contain 315 amino acid residues. The enzyme is blocked at the amino terminus, and mass spectrometry was employed to identify the blocking acetyl group and to sequence the amino-terminal tryptic peptide. The aldose reductase was shown to contain no carbohydrate despite the fact that the enzyme contains the consensus sequence -Asn-Lys-Thr- for N-linked glycosylation. Comparative sequence analysis and application of algorithms for prediction of secondary structure and nucleotide binding domains are consistent with the view that aldose reductase is a double-domain protein with a beta-alpha-beta secondary structural organization. The NADPH binding site appears to be associated with the amino-terminal half of the enzyme. Modeling studies based on the tertiary structures of dihydrofolate and glutathione reductases indicate that the NADPH binding site begins at Lys-11 and continues with a beta-alpha-beta fold characteristic of nucleotide binding proteins. 相似文献

Primary structure of bovine conglutinin, a member of the C-type animal lectin family 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7

We report the complete amino acid sequence of bovine conglutinin obtained by structural characterization of peptides derived from the protein by various chemical and enzymatic fragmentation methods. The protein consists of 351 amino acid residues including 55 apparent Gly-X-Y repeats with two interruptions. This 171-residue-long collagenous domain separates a short noncollagenous NH2-terminal region of 25 residues from the 155-residue-long globular COOH terminus revealing the structural relation of conglutinin with mannose-binding proteins, pulmonary surfactant-associated proteins, and a complement component C1q. Eight hydroxylysine residues were found in the collagenous domain. All of these hydroxylysine residues which occupy a Y position in a Gly-X-Y triplet are possible glycosylation sites since no phenylthiohydantoin amino acid was identified in automated Edman degradation cycles corresponding to these sites. The noncollagenous COOH domain of conglutinin, on the other hand, contains a carbohydrate recognition domain which shares substantial sequence homology with C-type animal lectins. Conglutinin has the greatest sequence similarity with mannose-binding proteins and pulmonary surfactant-associated proteins. 相似文献

The partial sequence of the increasing capillary permeability protein (ICPP) purified from Vipera lebetina venom revealed a strong homology to vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-A. We now report its complete amino acid sequence determined by Edman degradation and its biological effects on mouse and human vascular endothelial cells. ICPP is a homodimeric protein linked by cysteine disulfide bonds of 25115 Da revealed by mass spectrometry. Each monomer is composed of 110 amino acids including eight cysteine residues and a pyroglutamic acid at the N-terminal extremity. ICPP shares 52% sequence identity with human VEGF but lacks the heparin binding domain and Asn glycosylation site. Besides its strong capillary permeability activity, ICPP was found to be a potent in vitro angiogenic factor when added to mouse embryonic stem cells or human umbilical vein endothelial cells. ICPP was found to be as potent as human VEGF165 in activating p42/p44 MAPK, in reinitiation of DNA synthesis in human umbilical vein endothelial cells, and in promoting in vitro angiogenesis of mouse embryonic stem cells. All these biological actions, including capillary permeability in mice, were fully inhibited by 1 microm of a new specific VEGF receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor (ZM317450) from AstraZeneca that belongs to the anilinocinnoline family of compounds. Indeed, up to a 30 times higher concentration of inhibitor did not affect platelet-derived growth factor, epidermal growth factor, FGF-2, insulin, alpha-thrombin, or fetal calf serum-induced p42/p44 MAPK and reinitiation of DNA synthesis. Therefore, we conclude that this venom-derived ICPP exerts its biological action (permeability and angiogenesis) through activation of VEGF receptor signaling (VEGF-R2 and possibly VEGF-R1). 相似文献

The B-chain of the acidic subunit of crotoxin proved refractory to Edman degradation. When subjected to sequence analysis using tandem mass spectrometry, pyroglutamate was found at the amino-terminal end, even though earlier attempts to de-block with pyroglutamate aminopeptidase were unsuccessful. The B-chain contained 35 amino acids and showed 91% amino acid identity with the corresponding segment from Mojave toxin, a homologous neurotoxin from Crotalus scutulatus scutulatus. The sequence of the last 24 residues of the B-chain is consistent with that previously published (Aird, S.D., Kaiser, I.I., Lewis, R.V. and Kruggel, W.G. (1985) Biochemistry 24, 7054-7058), except at position 20, where Edman degradation gave glycine and mass spectrometry gave glutamic acid. 相似文献

Ribosomal proteins S7 from 30S subunits of Escherichia coli strains K and B differ extensively in their aminoacid compositions. The experimental details which led to the determination of the complete primary structures of proteins S7K and S7B are presented. Protein S7K consists of a single polypeptide chain of 177 aminoacids giving a calculated molecular weight of 19, 732, whereas protein S7B has 153 residues which amount to a molecular weight of 17,131. Aminoacid sequences were determined by a combination of automated Edman degradation of the intact proteins in a modified Beckman sequenator and sequencing of peptides obtained by digestion with trypsin. Staphylococcus aureus protease, thermolysin and pepsin, either by solid-phase Edman degradation or by dansyl-Edman degradation. Additional information about the primary structure was derived from peptides resulting from chemical cleavages of the protein by 2-(2-nitrophenyl-sulphenyl)-3-methyl 3' bromoindolenine at its tryptophanyl bonds and by cyanogen bromide at its methionyl bonds leading to large fragments. The mutational event occurring between S7B and S7K was characterized. Protein S7K contains an additional sequence of 24 aminoacids at its C-terminal end. The aminoacid sequence of both proteins S7K and S7B was compared to the published sequences of the other ribosomal proteins of Escherichia coli and predictions for the secondary structure of these proteins were made. 相似文献

High density O-glycosylation on tandem repeat peptide from secretory MUC1 of T47D breast cancer cells. 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9

The site-specific O-glycosylation of MUC1 tandem repeat peptides from secretory mucin of T47D breast cancer cells was analyzed. After affinity isolation on immobilized BC3 antibody, MUC1 was partially deglycosylated by enzymatic treatment with alpha-sialidase/beta-galactosidase and fragmented by proteolytic cleavage with the Arg-C-specific endopeptidase clostripain. The PAP20 glycopeptides were isolated by reversed phase high pressure liquid chromatography and subjected to the structural analyses by quadrupole time-of-flight electrospray ionization mass spectrometry and to the sequencing by Edman degradation. All five positions of the repeat peptide were revealed as O-glycosylation targets in the tumor cell, including the Thr within the DTR motif. The degree of substitution was estimated to average 4.8 glycans per repeat, which compares to 2.6 glycosylated sites per repeat for the mucin from milk (Müller, S., Goletz, S., Packer, N., Gooley, A. A., Lawson, A. M., and Hanisch, F.-G. (1997) J. Biol. Chem. 272, 24780-24793). In addition to a modification by glycosylation, the immunodominant DTR motif on T47D-MUC1 is altered by amino acid replacements (PAPGSTAPAAHGVTSAPESR), which were revealed in about 50% of PAP20 peptides. The high incidence of these replacements and their detection also in other cancer cell lines imply that the conserved tandem repeat domain of MUC1 is polymorphic with respect to the peptide sequence. 相似文献
