The in vivo specificity for E-selectin binding to a panel of N-linked oligosaccharides containing a clustered array of one to four sialyl Lewisx (SLex; NeuAcalpha2-3Gal[Fucalpha1-3]beta1-4GlcNAc) determinants was studied in mice. Following intraperitoneal dosing with lipopolysaccharide, radioiodinated tyrosinamide N-linked oligosaccharides were dosed i.v. and analyzed for their pharmacokinetics and biodistribution. Specific targeting was determined from the degree of SLex oligosaccharide targeting relative to a sialyl oligosaccharide control. Oligosaccharides targeted the kidney with the greatest selectivity after a 4-h induction period following lipopolysaccharide dosing. Unique pharmacokinetic profiles were identified for SLex biantennary and triantennary oligosaccharides but not for monovalent and tetraantennary SLex oligosaccharides or sialyl oligosaccharide controls. Biodistribution studies established that both SLex biantennary and triantennary oligosaccharides distributed to the kidney with 2-3-fold selectivity over sialyl oligosaccharide controls, whereas monovalent and tetraantennary SLex oligosaccharides failed to mediate specific kidney targeting. Simultaneous dosing of SLex biantennary or triantennary oligosaccharide with a mouse anti-E-selectin monoclonal antibody blocked kidney targeting, whereas co-administration with anti-P-selectin monoclonal antibody did not significantly block kidney targeting. The results suggest that SLex biantennary and triantennary are N-linked oligosaccharide ligands for E-selectin and implicate E-selectin as a bivalent receptor in the murine kidney endothelium.  相似文献

The oligosaccharide side chains of a human anti-lipopolysaccharide IgM produced by a human-human-mouse heterohybridoma were analyzed at each of its five conserved N-glycosylation sites. This antibody also has a potential sixth N-glycosylation site in the variable region of its heavy chain which is not glycosylated. The oligosaccharides were released by digestion with various endo- and exoglycosidases and analyzed by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry and fluorophore-assisted carbohydrate electrophoresis. The antibody has various complex- and hybrid-type oligosaccharide structures at Asn 171, various sialylated complex-type oligosaccharides at Asn 332 and 395, and high-mannose-type oligosaccharides at Asn 402 and 563. Of note is the presence in this human IgM of oligosaccharides containing N-glycolylneuraminic acid and N-acetylneuraminic acid in the ratio of 98:2 as determined using anion- exchange chromatography. Furthermore, we observed oligosaccharide structures containing Gal alpha (1,3)Gal that have not been reported as components of human glycoproteins.   相似文献

Recombinant human erythropoietin (EPO) was produced by a stable transfected CHO-K1 cell clone (EPO-81) grown in serum-free medium. Our previous work showed that there was a significant increase in the heterogeneity of the glycoforms of EPO and a reduction of the sialylation at 20 mM NH(4)Cl. In the work presented here, the effects of ammonia on EPO N-linked oligosaccharides were analyzed. EPO was purified from culture supernatants by immunoaffinity chromatography. The N-linked oligosaccharides were released enzymatically and analyzed by fluorophore-assisted carbohydrate electrophoresis (FACE) and HPLC. The FACE N-linked oligosaccharide profile showed that the sialylated glycans contain one prominent band at a position corresponding to eight glucose units. The density of the major band was greatly diminished and the width was significantly increased in cultures containing added ammonia. The proportion of tetraantennary structures was reduced by 60%, while the tri- and biantennary structures were increased proportionally in the presence of ammonia. Glycan analysis by HPLC using a weak anion exchange column showed that the most significant characteristic effect of ammonia was a reduction of the proportion of glycans with four sialic acids from 46% in control cultures to 29% in ammonia-treated cultures. Analysis of the desialylated glycans by normal phase chromatography indicated a distribution of tetra-, tri-, and biantennary structures similar to that shown by FACE. The N-linked glycan sequence was determined by sequential exoglycosidase digestion followed by FACE. The results indicated a typical N-linked complex oligosaccharide structure. Glycans from ammonia-containing cultures showed the same sequence pattern. In conclusion, we showed that ammonia in the culture medium affected EPO glycosylation, which was observed as a reduction of the tetraantennary and tetrasialylated oligosaccharide structures. However, the presence of ammonia in the cultures did not change the oligosaccharide sequence.  相似文献

The structure of asparagine-linked oligosaccharides attached to the antibody constant region (Fc) of human immunoglobulin G1 (IgG1) has been shown to affect the pharmacokinetics and antibody effector functions of antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) and complement-dependent cytotoxicity (CDC). However, it is still unclear how differences in the N-linked oligosaccharide structures impact the biological activities of antibodies, especially those lacking core fucose. Here, we succeeded in generating core fucose-lacking human IgG1 antibodies with three different N-linked Fc oligosaccharides, namely, a high-mannose, hybrid, and complex type, using the same producing clone, and compared their activities. Cultivation of an alpha-1,6-fucosyltransferase (FUT8) knockout Chinese hamster ovary cell line in the presence or absence of a glycosidase inhibitor (either swainsonine or kifunensine) yielded antibody production of each of the three types without contamination by the others. Two of three types of nonnaturally occurring atypical oligosaccharide IgG1, except the complex type, reduced the affinity for both human lymphocyte receptor IIIa (FcgammaRIIIa) and the C1q component of the complement, resulting in reduction of ADCC and CDC. The bulky structure of the nonreducing end of N-linked Fc oligosaccharides is considered to contribute the CDC change, whereas the structural change in the reducing end, i.e. the removal of core fucose, causes ADCC enhancement through improved FcgammaRIIIa binding. In the pharmacokinetic profile, although no significant difference of human neonatal Fc receptor (FcRn)-binding affinity was observed among the three types, the complex type showed longer serum half-lives than the other types irrespective of core fucosylation in mice, which also suggests the contribution of the nonreducing end structure. The present study provides basic information on the effects of core fucose-lacking N-linked Fc oligosaccharides on antibody biological activities.  相似文献

The N-linked oligosaccharide structures of human myelin-associated glycoprotein (MAG) and P0 have been characterized by serial lectin affinity chromatography (SLAC) of 14C-glycopeptides. 14C-Glycopeptides were prepared from purified MAG derivative and P0 by extensive proteolytic digestion and N-14C-acetylation. Assuming that all the 14C-glycopeptides were radiolabelled to the same specific radioactivity, the relative occurrence of the oligosaccharide structures was correlated to the amount of incorporated radioactivity. Sixteen and 15 fractions were generated by SLAC of MAG and P0 14C-glycopeptides, respectively. Despite this tremendous structural heterogeneity, the oligosaccharide "fingerprints" of MAG and P0 obtained by SLAC displayed similarities: (a) of the three types of N-linked oligosaccharides, the complex type accounted for 80.4% and 94.9% of MAG and P0 radioactivity, respectively; (b) biantennary complex oligosaccharides were the major structures present on MAG and P0; (c) approximately 60% of MAG and P0 oligosaccharides possessed a bisecting N-acetylglucosamine residue; and (d) large amounts of oligosaccharides with an alpha(1-6)fucose residue were found in both MAG and P0 and, noticeably, approximately 25% of the tri- and/or tetraantennary and approximately 90% of the bisected biantennary oligosaccharides of both glycoproteins contained alpha(1-6)fucose residues in the core. This study demonstrates that MAG and P0, both belonging to the immunoglobulin superfamily, display structural similarities in their N-linked oligosaccharide contents.  相似文献

Hamster sarcoma virus (HSV) transformation of Nil-8 fibroblasts is associated with an increase in the average size of N-acetyllactosamine (complex) type N-linked glycans due to an increase in both the average number of branches/chain and in the fraction of N-linked glycans containing poly(GlcNAc(beta 1,3) Gal-(beta 1,4)) (polylactosaminylglycan) chains. Analysis of glycopeptides from the envelope glycoproteins of Sindbis virus and vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) grown in Nil-8 and Nil/HSV cells indicated that the transformation-associated shift to larger N-linked oligosaccharides selectively affects some glycosylation sites far more than others. Glycosylation of the Sindbis virus glycoproteins and of Asn-179 of VSV G was similar in Nil-8 and Nil/HSV cells; oligosaccharide processing generally did not proceed beyond the biantennary complex stage. In contrast, Asn-336 of VSV G carried primarily biantennary complex glycans in Nil-8-grown virus (ratio, triantennary, and larger to biantennary complex glycans (tri+/bi) = 0.5) but more highly branched structures in Nil/HSV-grown virus (tri+/bi = 8.1). All of the triantennary or larger oligosaccharides from Asn-336 of Nil/HSV-grown VSV G bound to leukoagglutinating phytohemagglutinin-agarose, indicating the presence of a branch attached to the Man3GlcNAc2 core via a beta 1,6-linked GlcNAc residue and suggesting that increased UDP-GlcNAc:alpha-D-mannoside beta 1,6-N-acetylglucosaminyl transferase V (GlcNAc transferase V) activity accompanied transformation. At least 20% of these leukoagglutinating phytohemagglutinin-binding oligosaccharides were sensitive to an enzyme specific for polylactosaminylglycan chains, Escherichia freundii endo-beta-galactosidase.  相似文献

Therapeutic antibody IgG1 has two N-linked oligosaccharide chains bound to the Fc region. The oligosaccharides are of the complex biantennary type, composed of a trimannosyl core structure with the presence or absence of core fucose, bisecting N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc), galactose, and terminal sialic acid, which gives rise to structural heterogeneity. Both human serum IgG and therapeutic antibodies are well known to be heavily fucosylated. Recently, antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC), a lytic attack on antibody-targeted cells, has been found to be one of the critical effector functions responsible for the clinical efficacy of therapeutic antibodies such as anti-CD20 IgG1 rituximab (Rituxan®) and anti-Her2/neu IgG1 trastuzumab (Herceptin®). ADCC is triggered upon the binding of lymphocyte receptors (FcγRs) to the antibody Fc region. The activity is dependent on the amount of fucose attached to the innermost GlcNAc of N-linked Fc oligosaccharide via an α-1,6-linkage, and is dramatically enhanced by a reduction in fucose. Non-fucosylated therapeutic antibodies show more potent efficacy than their fucosylated counterparts both in vitro and in vivo, and are not likely to be immunogenic because their carbohydrate structures are a normal component of natural human serum IgG. Thus, the application of non-fucosylated antibodies is expected to be a powerful and elegant approach to the design of the next generation therapeutic antibodies with improved efficacy. In this review, we discuss the importance of the oligosaccharides attached to the Fc region of therapeutic antibodies, especially regarding the inhibitory effect of fucosylated therapeutic antibodies on the efficacy of non-fucosylated counterparts in one medical agent. The impact of completely non-fucosylated therapeutic antibodies on therapeutic fields will be also discussed.  相似文献

A mouse monoclonal IgM antibody, directed against human blood group B determinant, was isolated from hybridoma culture growth medium. Chemical analysis indicated presence of N- and O-linked oligosaccharides. The N- and O-linked carbohydrate chains were liberated using two different conditions of reductive alkaline degradation. Structural analysis was carried out on the isolated chains using chemical analysis, 500-MHz 1H-NMR spectroscopy and fast-atom-bombardment mass spectrometry. The following composite structures of the N-linked chains were found: (formula; see text) where R = OH for biantennary structures and R = Neu5Ac alpha 2-3Gal beta 1-4 GlcNAc beta 1- or Neu5Ac alpha 2-3Gal beta 1-3[Neu5Ac alpha 2-6]GlcNAc beta 1- for triantennary structures. The O-linked oligosaccharides, found in the light chains, were shown to have the structure Neu5Ac alpha 2-3Gal beta 1-3GalNAc. The native IgM antibody could be separated on a concanavalin-A-Sepharose column into two subfractions, differing in the presence of a high-mannose-type oligosaccharide.  相似文献

Nimotuzumab (TheraCIM, CIMAher, h-R3, humanized anti-EGF-R antibody), monoclonal antibody (mAb) manufactured at the Center of Molecular Immunology (Havana, Cuba) is currently being tested in several clinical trials. Nimotuzumab has a single N-glycosylation site in the Fc-CH2 fragment but no N-glycosylation site in the Fab region. The current study reports the full characterization of the mAb N-glycosylation and the consistency observed in several production batches from a perfusion mode culturing system that lasted between 68 and 150 days. It confirms that the N-glycan structures of Nimotuzumab expressed in the NS0 murine myeloma cell line are of the murine type. They consist mainly of fucosylated G0, G1 and G2 oligosaccharides, which are normally found in the CH2 region of IgG. Other minor species found were high mannose and sialylated structures. A small portion of the glycans were sialylated (~12%) and the only type of sialic acid detected was N-glycolyl-sialic acid, α2,6-linked to Gal. No Galα1-3Gal moieties were detected.  相似文献

The yeast Pichia pastoris is used extensively as the host cell for large-scale production of secreted recombinant proteins. Many proteins of pharmaceutical importance are N-glycosylated, and therefore require an expression host that yields N-linked oligosaccharides that are structurally and functionally identical to the human counterpart. The recent report by Choi et al. describes the use of combinatorial genetic libraries to alter the N-glycosylation pathway in P. pastoris to yield N-linked oligosaccharides with hybrid structures that are the same as the intermediates of mammalian-protein N-glycosylation. In view of recent progress in this area, the production of complex human glycans in yeasts is anticipated.  相似文献

The murine B-lymphocyte hybridoma cell line, CC9C10, was grown in serum-free continuous culture at steady-state dissolved oxygen (DO) concentrations of 10%, 50%, and 100% of air saturation in both LH Series 210 (LH) and New Brunswick Scientific (NBS) CelliGen bioreactors. All culture parameters were monitored and controlled and were nominally identical at steady state in the two bioreactors. The secreted monoclonal antibody (mAb), an immunoglobulin G(1), was purified and subjected to enzymatic deglycosylation using peptide N-glycosidase F (PNGase F). Asparagine-linked (N-linked) oligosaccharide pools released from mAb samples cultured in each bioreactor at each of the three DO setpoints were analyzed by high-pH anion-exchange chromatography with pulsed amperometric detection (HPAEC-PAD). The predominant N-linked structures were core-fucosylated asialo biantennary chains with varying galactosylation. There were also minor amounts of monosialyl oligosaccharides and trace amounts of afucosyl oligosaccharides. The level of DO affects the glycosylation of this mAb. A definite reduction in the level of galactosylation of N-glycan chains was observed at lower DO in both bioreactors, as evidenced by prominent increases in the relative amounts of agalactosyl chains and decreases in the relative amounts of digalactosyl chains-with the relative amounts of monogalactosyl chains being comparatively constant. However, the quantitative results are not precise matches between the two bioreactors. The effect of DO on galactosylation is less pronounced in the NBS bioreactor than in the LH bioreactor, particularly the shift between the relative amounts of agalactosyl and digalactosyl chains in 10% and 50% DO. There are also perceptibly higher levels of sialylation of the mAb glycans in the NBS bioreactor than in the LH bioreactor at all three DO setpoints. The results indicate that the DO effect is not bioreactor specific and that nominally identical steady-state conditions in different chemostat bioreactors may still lead to some incongruities in glycosylation, possibly due to the particular architectures of the bioreactors and the design of their respective monitoring and control systems. The observed differences in N-linked glycosylation of the mAb secreted by the hybridoma grown in the LH and NBS bioreactors may be explained by the differences in oxygen supply and control strategies between the two bioreactors.  相似文献

Cetuximab is a novel therapeutic monoclonal antibody with two N-glycosylation sites: a conserved site in the CH2 domain and a second site within the framework 3 of the variable portion of the heavy chain. The detailed structures of these oligosaccharides were successfully characterized using orthogonal matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization hybrid quadrupole-quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (oMALDI Qq-TOF MS) and tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) in combination with exoglycosidase digestion. The N-linked oligosaccharides were released by treatment with N-glycanase F, reductively aminated with anthranilic acid, and fractionated by normal phase high-performance liquid chromatography (NP-HPLC). The fluorescent-labeled oligosaccharide pool and fractions were analyzed by oMALDI Qq-TOF MS and MS/MS in negative ion mode. Each fraction was further digested with an array of exoglycosidase mixtures, and subsequent MALDI TOF MS analysis of the resulting products yielded information about structural features of the oligosaccharide. The combined data revealed the presence of 21 distinct oligosaccharide structures in cetuximab. These oligosaccharides differ mainly in degree of sialylation with N-glycolyl neuraminic acid and extent of galactosylation (zero-, mono-, di-, and alpha(1-3)-galactosidase). The individual oligosaccharides were further assigned to the specific sites in the Fab and Fc regions of the antibody. This study represents a unique approach in that MS/MS data were used to identify and confirm the oligosaccharide structures of a protein.  相似文献

The extent of protein N-glycosylation in Leishmania mexicana amazonensis has been proposed to be a factor in the virulence of the parasite. The N-linked oligosaccharides of gp63, the major surface glycoprotein of L. mexicana amazonensis, were characterized after their release by hydrazinolysis, re-N-acetylation, and reduction with NaB3H4. High voltage paper electrophoresis of the reduced oligosaccharides revealed only neutral species. Gel-permeation chromatography on Bio-Gel P-4 yielded four fractions, and the oligosaccharides present were structurally characterized by sequential exoglycosidase digestion, fragmentation by acetolysis, and methylation analysis. Four major structures were found and were biantennary oligomannose type with compositions of Glc1Man6GlcNAc2 (La), Man6GlcNAc2 (Lb), Man5GlcNAc2 (Lc), and Man4GlcNAc2 (Ld). The largest oligosaccharide (La) was shown to contain a terminal glucopyranosyl residue on the alpha (1----3) arm. The biantennary oligomannose structures (Lb and Lc) and the glucosylated structure Glc1Man6GlcNAc2 (La) have not previously been reported as a component of a mature glycoprotein from any source.  相似文献

Recombinant human lecithin‐cholesterol acyltransferase Fc fusion (huLCAT‐Fc) is a chimeric protein produced by fusing human Fc to the C‐terminus of the human enzyme via a linker sequence. The huLCAT‐Fc homodimer contains five N‐linked glycosylation sites per monomer. The heterogeneity and site‐specific distribution of the various glycans were examined using enzymatic digestion and LC‐MS/MS, followed by automatic processing. Almost all of the N‐linked glycans in human LCAT are fucosylated and sialylated. The predominant LCAT N‐linked glycoforms are biantennary glycans, followed by triantennary sugars, whereas the level of tetraantennary glycans is much lower. Glycans at the Fc N‐linked site exclusively contain typical asialobiantennary structures. HuLCAT‐Fc was also confirmed to have mucin‐type glycans attached at T407 and S409. When LCAT‐Fc fusions were constructed using a G‐S‐G‐G‐G‐G linker, an unexpected +632 Da xylose‐based glycosaminoglycan (GAG) tetrasaccharide core of Xyl‐Gal‐Gal‐GlcA was attached to S418. Several minor intermediate species including Xyl, Xyl‐Gal, Xyl‐Gal‐Gal, and a phosphorylated GAG core were also present. The mucin‐type O‐linked glycans can be effectively released by sialidase and O‐glycanase; however, the GAG could only be removed and localized using chemical alkaline β‐elimination and targeted LC‐MS/MS. E416 (the C‐terminus of LCAT) combined with the linker sequence is likely serving as a substrate for peptide O‐xylosyltransferase. HuLCAT‐Fc shares some homology with the proposed consensus site near the linker sequence, in particular, the residues underlined PPP E416GS418G G G GDK. GAG incorporation can be eliminated through engineering by shifting the linker Ser residue downstream in the linker sequence.  相似文献

The N-glycosidically linked glycans in the large subunit (HA1) of the hemagglutinin from fowl plague virus, strain Dutch (containing about 15%, w/w, of carbohydrates), were liberated by alkaline hydrolysis, and were filtrated through Bio-Gel as the re-N-acetylated oligosaccharide alditols. One major fraction (90%, mol/mol) was obtained. It was subfractionated by concanavalin A affinity chromatography and was analyzed by methylation/capillary gas chromatography/mass fragmentography and especially by one-dimensional and two-dimensional 1H nuclear magnetic resonance. The major HA1 glycans, which are not sialylated, were thus found to comprise about 40%, 30% and 20% (mol/mol), respectively, of biantennary intersected, biantennary, and triantennary N-acetyllactosaminic ('complex') oligosaccharides. About two thirds of the internal GlcNAc residues in these glycans are substituted by Fuc(alpha 1----6), all the triantennary species carry the third Gal(beta 1----4)GlcNAc(beta 1----unit at the Man(alpha 1----6)-branch, and roughly one fourth of the N-acetyllactosamine units in the non-intersected biantennary oligosaccharides are incomplete.  相似文献

The localization and characterization of oligosaccharide sequences in the cat testis was investigated using 12 lectins in combination with the beta-elimination reaction, N-Glycosidase F and sialidase digestion. Leydig cells expressed O-linked glycans with terminal alphaGalNAc (HPA reactivity) and N-glycans with terminal/internal alphaMan (Con A affinity). The basement membrane showed terminal Neu5Acalpha2,6Gal/GalNAc, Galbeta1,3GalNAc, alpha/betaGalNAc, and GlcNAc (SNA, PNA, HPA, SBA, GSA II reactivity) in O-linked oligosaccharides, terminal Galbeta1,4GlcNAc (RCA120 staining) and alphaMan in N-linked oligosaccharides; in addition, terminal Neu5acalpha2,3Galbeta1,4GlcNac, Forssman pentasaccharide, alphaGal, alphaL-Fuc and internal GlcNAc (MAL II, DBA, GSA I-B4, UEA I, KOH-sialidase-WGA affinity) formed both O- and N-linked oligosaccharides. The Sertoli cells cytoplasm contained terminal Neu5Ac-Galbeta1,4GlcNAc, Neu5Ac-betaGalNAc as well as internal GlcNAc in O-linked glycans, alphaMan in N-linked glycoproteins and terminal Neu5Acalpha2,6Gal/ GalNAc in both O- and N-linked oligosaccharides. Spermatogonia exhibited cytoplasmic N-linked glycoproteins with alphaMan residues. The spermatocytes cytoplasm expressed terminal Neu5Acalpha2,3Galbeta1,4 GlcNAc and Galbeta1,3GalNAc in O-linked oligosaccharides, terminal Galbeta1,4GlcNAc and alpha/betaGalNAc in N-linked glycoconjugates. The Golgi region showed terminal Neu5Acalpha2,3Galbeta1,4GlcNac, Galbeta1,4GlcNAc, Forssman pentasaccharide, and alphaGalNAc in O-linked oligosaccharides, alphaMan and terminal betaGal in N-linked oligosaccharides. The acrosomes of Golgi-phase spermatids expressed terminal Galbeta1,3GalNAc, Galbeta1,4GlcNAc, Forssmann pentasaccharide, alpha/betaGalNAc, alphaGal and internal GlcNAc in O-linked oligosaccharides, terminal alpha/betaGalNAc, alphaGal and terminal/internal alphaMan in N-linked glycoproteins. The acrosomes of cap-phase spermatids lacked internal Forssman pentasaccharide and alphaGal, while having increased alpha/betaGalNAc. The acrosomes of elongated spermatids did not show terminal Galbeta1,3GalNAc, displayed terminal Galbeta1,4GlcNAc and alpha/betaGalNAc in N-glycans and Neu5Ac-Galbeta1,3GalNAc in O-linked oligosaccharides.  相似文献

The N-linked oligosaccharides were released from the phospholipase A2 (PLA) with glycopeptidases and reductively aminated with the chromophore, p-aminobenzoic acid ethyl ester (ABEE). The ABEE-labeled oligosaccharides were separated by microbore high-performance liquid chromatography (micro-HPLC) using a reversed-phase column and analyzed by electrospray mass spectrometry. Differentiation between alpha-1,3 and alpha-1,6 core-fucosylated glycans was achieved by comparison the glycans released by glycopeptidases peptide-N-glycanase A (PNase A) and peptide-N-glycanase F (PNase F). All N-linked oligosaccharides except 3B and 3C could be identified in this approach. The analysis of PLA oligosaccharides from the venom of individual bees indicated that glycosylation patterns between the younger and the older bees were similar.  相似文献

The glycosylation pattern of a humanized anti-EGFR×anti-CD3 bispecific single-chain diabody with an Fc portion (hEx3-scDb-Fc) produced by recombinant Chinese hamster ovary cells was evaluated and compared with those of a recombinant humanized anti-IL-8 antibody (IgG1) and human serum IgG. N-Linked oligosaccharide structures were estimated by two-dimensional high-performance liquid chromatography and matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry. No sialylation was observed with purified hEx3-scDb-Fc and the anti-IL-8 antibody. From the analysis of neutral oligosaccharides, approximately more than 90% of the N-linked oligosaccharides of hEx3-scDb-Fc and the anti-IL-8 antibody were alpha-1,6-fucosylated. The galactosylated biantennary oligosaccharides comprise over 40% of the total N-linked oligosaccharides in both hEx3-scDb-Fc and the anti-IL-8 antibody. The fully galactosylated biantennary oligosaccharides from hEx3-scDb-Fc and the anti-IL-8 antibody accounted for only 10% of the N-linked; however, more than 20% of the N-linked oligosaccharides were fully galactosylated biantennary oligosaccharides in human serum IgG. The glycosylation pattern of hEx3-scDb-Fc was quite similar to that of the anti-IL-8 antibody.  相似文献

Previous studies in our laboratory have characterized 3'-azido-3'-deoxythymidine (AZT) as a potent inhibitor of glycosphingolipid biosynthesis in cultured cells (Steet, R., Alizadeh, M., Melan?on, P., and Kuchta, R. D. (1999) Glycoconj. J. 16, 237-245; Yan, J.-P., Ilsley, D. D., Frohlick, C., Steet, R., Hall, E. T., Kuchta, R. D., and Melan?on, P. (1995) J. Biol. Chem. 270, 22836-22841). Here, we report that AZT treatment of K562 cells results in significant alterations in the profile of N-linked oligosaccharides. Fractionation of [(3)H]mannose-labeled oligosaccharides from AZT-treated K562 cells using lectin affinity chromatography revealed striking changes in the branching and processing of N-linked glycoconjugates. AZT treatment resulted in the production of fewer highly branched complex glycans (60% of control at 20 micrometer AZT) and a significant accumulation of core-fucosylated biantennary oligosaccharides. In addition, extension of branched oligosaccharides with multiple poly-N-acetyllactosamine repeats is nearly abolished by AZT concentrations as low as 2 micrometer. A shift from multiantennary to moderately branched oligosaccharides was also apparent in the melanoma cell line SK-MEL-30 upon AZT treatment. N-Linked glycans from both cell lines exhibited increased affinity for the beta-galactoside-binding lectin RCA-I in the presence of AZT, suggesting that the addition of terminal sialic acid is sensitive to the drug. These results demonstrate the ability of AZT to modulate strongly the processing of asparagine-linked glycoconjugates in whole cells and reveal a novel mechanism by which AZT treatment may cause anemia.  相似文献
