O-linked N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc) is a highly dynamic and abundant modification found on nuclear and cytoplasmic proteins of nearly all eukaryotes. O-GlcNAc addition is required for life at the single cell level and is analogous to protein phosphorylation in most respects. In a previous study (M.S. Jiang, G.W. Hart, A subpopulation of estrogen receptors are modified by O-linked N-acetylglucosamine. J. Biol. Chem. 270 (1997) 2421-2428), we demonstrated that a subpopulation of the murine estrogen receptor-alpha (mER-alpha) is modified by O-GlcNAc at Thr(575). Here we mutated mER-alpha to convert Thr(575) and Ser(576) to Val and Ala, respectively. Surprisingly, this glycosylation-site mutant is still extensively modified by O-GlcNAc. Analyses of glycopeptides identified two additional sites of modification on mER-alpha, at Ser(10) and Thr(50) near the N-terminus. The major glycosylation sites are within or near PEST regions, suggesting that O-GlcNAc may regulate mER-alpha turnover. 相似文献

O-linked N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc) glycosylation is a post-translational modification, which is believed antagonises phosphorylation. We have studied the O-GlcNAc level during Xenopus oocyte meiotic resumption, taking advantage of the high synchrony of this model which is dependent upon a burst of phosphorylation. Stimulation of immature stage VI oocytes using progesterone was followed by a 4.51 +/- 0.32 fold increase in the GlcNAc content, concomitantly to an increase in phosphorylation, notably on two cytoplasmic proteins of 66 and 97 kDa. The increase of O-GlcNAc for the 97 kDa protein, which we identified as beta-catenin was partly related to its accumulation during maturation, as was demonstrated by the use of the protein synthesis inhibitor--cycloheximide. Microinjection of free GlcNAc, which inhibits O-glycosylated proteins-lectins interactions, delayed the progesterone-induced maturation without affecting the O-GlcNAc content. Our results suggest that O-GlcNAc glycosylation could regulate protein-protein interactions required for the cell cycle kinetic. 相似文献

The molecular complexity that defines different cell types and their biological responses occurs at the level of the cell's proteome. The recent increase in availability of genomic sequence information is a valuable tool for the field of proteomics. While most proteomic studies focus on differential expression levels, post-translational modifications such as phosphorylation, glycosylation, and acetylation, provide additional levels of functional complexity to the cell's proteome. The reversible post-translational modification O-linked beta-N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc) is found on serines and threonines of nuclear and cytoplasmic proteins. It appears to be as widespread as phosphorylation. While phosphorylation is recognized as a fundamental mechanism for controlling protein function, less is known about the specific roles of O-GlcNAc modification. However, evidence is building that O-GlcNAc may compete with phosphate at some sites of attachment. Aberrant O-GlcNAc modification has been linked to several disease states, including diabetes and Alzheimer's disease. Regulated enzymes catalyzing the addition (O-GlcNAc transferase, OGT) and removal (O-GlcNAcase) of the modification have been cloned and OGT is required for life at the single cell level. Here we review the properties of O-GlcNAc that suggest it is a regulatory modification analogous to phosphorylation. We also discuss the use of comparative functional proteomics to elucidate functions for this ubiquitous intracellular carbohydrate modification. 相似文献

70-kDa-heat shock protein presents an adjustable lectinic activity towards O-linked N-acetylglucosamine 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Numerous works demonstrated that the dynamic O-GlcNAc glycosylation could protect against the proteasomal degradation by modifying the target proteins and the proteasome itself. Considering that Hsp70 is a crucial component in the quality control of protein conformation in the proteasomal pathway, we investigated the possibility that Hsp70 physically interacts with O-GlcNAc proteins through a lectinic activity. First, we demonstrate that in HepG2 cells, Hsp70 can specifically bind to O-GlcNAc residues but also is itself modified by O-GlcNAc. Second, when cells were deprived of glucose (nutrient stress), Hsp70 lectinic activity markedly increased whereas its glycosylation dramatically decreased. On the other hand, a 42 degrees C thermic stress did not affect any of these features. Lastly, the nature of O-GlcNAc modified proteins co-immunoprecipitating with Hsp70 was similar for cells submitted to the thermic and to nutrient stress. These results strongly suggest that O-GlcNAc influences protein stability through specific interaction with 70-kDa-heat shock protein members. 相似文献

beta-O-linked N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc) is an abundant posttranslational modification of resident nuclear and cytoplasmic proteins in eukaryotes. Increasing evidence suggests that O-GlcNAc plays a regulatory role in numerous cellular processes. Here we report on the production and characterization of a highly specific mouse monoclonal antibody, MAb CTD110.6, that specifically reacts with O-GlcNAc. The antibody recognizes O-GlcNAc in beta-O-glycosidic linkage to both serine and threonine. We could detect no cross-reactivity with alpha-linked Ser/Thr-O-GlcNAc, alpha-linked Ser-O-linked N-acetylgalactosamine (O-GalNAc), or N-linked oligosaccharides on ovalbumin and immunoglobulin G. The monosaccharide GlcNAc, but not GalNAc, abolishes immunoreactivity, further demonstrating specificity toward O-GlcNAc. Furthermore, galactose capping of O-GlcNAc sites also inhibits CTD110.6 immunoreactivity. Enrichment of GlcNAc-containing glycoproteins using the lectin wheat germ agglutinin dramatically enriches for CTD110.6-reactive proteins. The antibody reacts with a large number of proteins from cytoplasmic and nuclear extracts and readily detects in vivo changes in O-GlcNAc modification. These studies demonstrate that CTD110.6 is highly specific toward O-GlcNAc, with no cross-reactivity toward similar carbohydrate antigens or toward peptide determinants. 相似文献

Several nuclear and cytoplasmic proteins in metazoans are modified by O-linked N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc). This modification is dynamic and reversible similar to phosphorylation and is catalyzed by the O-linked GlcNAc transferase (OGT). Hyperglycemia has been shown to increase O-GlcNAc levels in pancreatic beta cells, which appears to interfere with beta-cell function. To obtain a better understanding of the role of O-linked GlcNAc modification in beta cells, we have isolated OGT interacting proteins from a cDNA library made from the mouse insulinoma MIN6 cell line. We describe here the identification of Ataxin-10, encoded by the SCA10 (spinocerebellar ataxia type 10) gene as an OGT interacting protein. Mutations in the SCA10 gene cause progressive cerebellar ataxias and seizures. We demonstrate that SCA10 interacts with OGT in vivo and is modified by O-linked glycosylation in MIN6 cells, suggesting a novel role for the Ataxin-10 protein in pancreatic beta cells. 相似文献

Evidence of a balance between phosphorylation and O-GlcNAc glycosylation of Tau proteins--a role in nuclear localization 总被引:10,自引:0,他引:10

Both phosphorylation and O-GlcNAc glycosylation posttranslationally modify microtubule-associated Tau proteins. Whereas the hyperphosphorylation of these proteins that occurs in Alzheimer's disease is well characterized, little is known about the O-GlcNAc glycosylation. The present study demonstrates that a balance exists between phosphorylation and O-GlcNAc glycosylation of Tau proteins, and furthermore that a dysfunction of this balance correlates with reduced nuclear localization.The affinity of Tau proteins for WGA lectin, together with evidence from [3H]-galactose transfer and analysis of beta-eliminated products, demonstrated the presence of O-GlcNAc residues on both cytosolic and nuclear Tau proteins. In addition, our data indicated the existence of a balance between phosphorylation and O-GlcNAc glycosylation events. Indeed, as demonstrated by 2D-electrophoresis and Western blotting, O-GlcNAc residues were mainly located on the less phosphorylated Tau 441 variants, whereas the more phosphorylated forms were devoid of O-GlcNAc residues. Furthermore, the Tau protein hyperphosphorylation induced by cellular okadaic acid treatment was correlated with reduced incorporation of O-GlcNAc residues into Tau proteins and with diminished Tau transfer into the nucleus. Hence, this paper establishes a direct relationship between O-GlcNAc glycosylation, phosphorylation and cellular localization of Tau proteins. 相似文献

Protein glycosylation with O-linked N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc) is a reversible post-translational modification of serines/threonines on metazoan proteins and occurring with similar time scales, dynamics and stoichiometry as protein phosphorylation. Levels of this modification are regulated by two enzymes-O-GlcNAc transferase (OGT) and O-GlcNAc hydrolase (OGA). Although the biochemistry of these enzymes and functional implications of O-GlcNAc have been studied extensively, until recently the structures and molecular mechanisms of OGT/OGA were not understood. This review covers a body of recent work that has led to an understanding of the structure of OGA, its catalytic mechanism and the development of a plethora of different inhibitors that are finding their use in cell biological studies towards the functional implications of O-GlcNAc. Furthermore, the very recent structure determination of a bacterial OGT orthologue has given the first insights into the contribution of the tetratricopeptide repeats (TPRs) to the active site and the role of some residues in catalysis and substrate binding. 相似文献

beta-O-linked N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc) is an abundant and dynamic post-translational modification implicated in protein regulation that appears to be functionally more similar to phosphorylation than to classical glycosylation. There are nucleocytoplasmic enzymes for the attachment and removal of O-GlcNAc. Here, we further characterize the recently cloned beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase, O-GlcNAcase. Both recombinant and purified endogenous O-GlcNAcase rapidly release free GlcNAc from O-GlcNAc-modified peptide substrates. The recombinant enzyme functions as a monomer and has kinetic parameters (K(m) = 1.1 mm for paranitrophenyl-GlcNAc, k(cat) = 1 s(-1)) that are similar to those of lysosomal hexosaminidases. The endogenous O-GlcNAcase appears to be in a complex with other proteins and is predominantly localized to the cytosol. Overexpression of the enzyme in living cells results in decreased O-GlcNAc modification of nucleocytoplasmic proteins. Finally, we show that the enzyme is a substrate for caspase-3 but, surprisingly, the cleavage has no effect on in vitro O-GlcNAcase activity. These studies support the identification of this protein as an O-GlcNAcase and identify important interactions and modifications that may regulate the enzyme and O-GlcNAc cycling. 相似文献

Previously we reported that the novel protein-saccharide linkage, O-linked N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc), is found in abundance on proteins associated with the cytoplasmic and nucleoplasmic faces of the nuclear pore complex. Here we demonstrate that O-GlcNAc moieties are also added to human erythrocyte cytoplasmic proteins. Intact or permeabilized erythrocytes, as well as subcellular fractions, were labeled with bovine milk galactosyltransferase and UDP-[3H] galactose. The proportion of the incorporated label found on O-GlcNAc was determined by a variety of chemical and enzymatic techniques. The bulk of the O-GlcNAc residues are found in the cytoplasm of erythrocytes, the majority of which are on an as yet unidentified 65-kDa protein. In addition, we have determined that Band 4.1, a protein which serves as a bridge joining the cytoskeleton to the inner surface of the plasma membrane in erythrocytes, also contains O-GlcNAc moieties. One of the sites of O-GlcNAc addition has been localized to the last 117 amino acids of the carboxy terminus of Band 4.1. 相似文献

O-linked N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc) is a highly dynamic post-translational modification of cytoplasmic and nuclear proteins. Although the function of this abundant modification is yet to be definitively elucidated, all O-GlcNAc proteins are phosphoproteins. Further, the serine and threonine residues substituted with O-GlcNAc are often sites of, or close to sites of, protein phosphorylation. This implies that there may be a dynamic interplay between these two post-translational modifications to regulate protein function. In this review, the functions of some of the proteins that are modified by O-GlcNAc will be considered in the context of the potential role of the O-GlcNAc modification. Furthermore, predictions will be made as to how cellular function and developmental regulation might be affected by changes in O-GlcNAc levels. 相似文献

Rare types of glycosylation often occur in a domain-specific manner and are involved in specific biological processes. In particular, O-fucose glycans are reported to regulate the functions of EGF domain-containing proteins such as Notch receptors. In the course of mass spectrometric analysis of O-glycans displayed on Drosophila Notch receptors expressed in S2 cells, we found an unusual O-linked N-acetylhexosamine (HexNAc) modification which occurs at a site distinct from those of O-fucose and O-glucose glycosylations. Modification site mapping by mass spectrometry and amino acid substitution studies revealed that O-HexNAc modification occurs on a serine or threonine located between the fifth and sixth cysteines within the EGF domain. This modification occurs simultaneously along with other closely positioned O-glycosylations. This modification was determined to be O-beta-GlcNAc by galactosyltransferase labeling and beta-N-acetyl-hexosaminidase digestion experiments and by immunoblotting with a specific antibody. O-GlcNAc modification occurs at multiple sites on Notch epidermal growth factor repeats. O-GlcNAc modification was also found on the extracellular domain of Delta, a ligand for Notch receptors. Although the O-GlcNAc modification is known to regulate a wide range of cellular processes, the list of known modified proteins has previously been limited to intracellular proteins in animals. Thus, the finding of O-GlcNAc modification in extracellular environments predicts a distinct glycosylation process that might be associated with a novel regulatory mechanism for Notch receptor activity. 相似文献

Many cytosolic and nuclear proteins are modified by monomeric O-linked N-acetyl-d-glucosamine (O-GlcNAc). The biological functions of this form of glycosylation are unclear but evidence suggests that it heightens regulation of protein function. To assess the biological function of O-GlcNAc addition, we examined the biological effects of galactosyltransferase (GalT) microinjected into the cytoplasm of Xenopus ovarian oocytes. GalT, which catalyzes beta1-4-galactose addition to O-GlcNAc, should inhibit deglycosylation and lectin-like interactions requiring unmodified O-GlcNAc residues. Although GalT injection into diplotene-arrested oocytes has no detectable effects on cell viability, it is toxic to oocytes entering meiosis. Cell-cycle-specific toxicity is recapitulated in vitro as GalT inhibits formation of nuclei and microtubule asters from cell-free extracts of ovulated frog eggs. These observations suggest that regulation of O-GlcNAc is important for cell cycle progression and may be important in diseases in which O-GlcNAc metabolism is abnormal. The methods described here outline a viable experimental scheme for ascribing a biological function to this form of glycosylation. 相似文献

There are several lines of evidence that the modification of proteins by cytosolic- and nuclear-specific O-linked N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc) glycosylation is closely related to neuropathologies, particularly Alzheimer's disease. Several neuronal proteins have been identified as being modified with O-GlcNAc; these proteins could form part of the inclusion bodies found, for example, in the most frequently observed neurologic disorder (i.e., Alzheimer's disease; Tau protein and beta-amyloid peptide are the well known aggregated proteins). O-GlcNAc proteins are also implicated in synaptosomal transport (e.g., synapsins and clathrin-assembly proteins). Inclusion bodies are partly characterized by a deficiency in the ubiquitin-proteasome system, avoiding the degradation of aggregated proteins. From this perspective, it appears interesting that substrate proteins could be protected against proteasomal degradation by being covalently modified with single N-acetylglucosamine on serine or threonine, and that the proteasome itself is modified and regulated by O-GlcNAc (in this case the turnover of neuronal proteins correlates with extracellular glucose). Interestingly, glucose uptake and metabolism are impaired in neuronal disorders, and this phenomenon is linked to increased phosphorylation. In view of the existence of the dynamic interplay between O-GlcNAc and phosphorylation, it is tempting to draw a parallel between the use of glucose, O-GlcNAc glycosylation and phosphorylation. Lastly, the two enzymes responsible for O-GlcNAc dynamism (i.e., O-GlcNAc transferase and glucosaminidase) are both enriched in the brain and genes that encode the two enzymes are located in two regions that are found to be frequently mutated in neurologic disorders. The data presented in this review strongly suggest that O-GlcNAc could play an active role in neurodegenerative diseases. 相似文献
