The use of high-performance liquid chromatography for the quantification of glycosaminoglycan disaccharides has been hampered by the inability to isocratically resolve the chondroitinase digestion products 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-3-O-(beta-D-gluco-4-enepyranosyluronic acid)-D-glucose (delta Di-HA) and 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-3-O-(beta-D-gluco-4-enepyranosyluronic acid)-D-galactose (delta Di-OS). To overcome this limitation, we have developed a solvent system capable of resolving delta Di-HA, delta Di-OS, 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-3-O-(beta-D-gluco-4-enepyranosyluronic acid)-6-O-sulfo-D-galactose (delta Di-6S), and 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-3-O-(beta-D-gluco-4-enepyranosyluronic acid)-4-O-sulfo-D-galactose (delta Di-4S). Integrator responses were linear from 1 microgram down to 25 ng for delta Di-HA, delta Di-OS, and delta Di-4S and down to 100 ng for delta Di-6S. This method was used to examine changes in the content of urinary hyaluronic acid and chondroitin sulfates isolated from normal individuals and from patients with Lowe Syndrome, Werner Syndrome, and Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome. We confirmed that the HPLC method gave results comparable to colorimetric methods.  相似文献

A differentiated population of cells with metachromatically staining granules and surface IgE receptors was obtained from mouse bone marrow cultured for 2 weeks in the presence of conditioned medium derived from concanavalin A-stimulated splenocytes. The cells were found to incorporate large amounts of [35S]sulfate into an intracellular 35S-labeled proteoglycan of Mr approximately 200,000 containing a maximum of seven glycosaminoglycan side chains (Mr = 25,000). After chondroitinase ABC treatment of density gradient-purified [3H] serine-labeled proteoglycan, the resulting core was Mr approximately 26,000 as assessed by gel filtration. Two-dimensional cellulose acetate electrophoresis of beta-eliminated 35S-labeled glycosaminoglycan revealed a single type of glycosaminoglycan that migrated at the position of oversulfated chondroitin sulfate E from squid cartilage. Chondroitinase ABC degradation of the 35S-labeled glycosaminoglycan yielded two cleavage products in approximately equal molar amounts which co-migrated in both descending paper chromatography and high voltage paper electrophoresis with a monosulfated disaccharide, 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-3-O-(beta-D-gluco-4-enepyranosyluronic acid)-4-O-sulfo-D-galactose, and a disulfated disaccharide, 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-3-O-(beta-D-gluco-4-enepyranosyluronic acid)-4-6-di-O-sulfo-D-galactose. The release of some free [35S]sulfate from the oversulfated disaccharide with either chondro-4-sulfatase or chondro-6-sulfatase and the complete desulfation by their combined action established that the oversulfated disaccharide contained N-acetylgalactosamine-4,6-disulfate. The 35S]labeled proteoglycan of these unique IgE receptor-bearing and histamine-containing cells, therefore, is composed of chondroitin sulfate E rather than heparin glycosaminoglycan, and thus is the first identification of such an intracellular localized proteoglycan in a mammalian cell.  相似文献

A strain of Arthrobacter aurescens which secretes a large amount of chondroitinase into a culture broth, was isolated from soil. The chondroitinase was purified 380-fold over culture broth in 24% yield and crystallized. Some properties of the purified enzyme were studied and described: thermal stability (below 45 degrees), pH stability (pH 4.9 to 7.4), optimum temperature (50 degrees), and optimum pH (pH 6.0). Chrondroitin sulfate A and C, chondroitin, and hyaluronic acid were split by the enzyme but dermatan sulfate could not be. The initial rates of enzymic degradation of chondroitin sulfate C, chondroitin, and hyaluronic acid were 1.1, 1.95, and 3.2, respectively, compared to that of chondroitin sulfate A. When the enzyme was allowed to act on chondroitin sulfate A and C, the reducing power and the ultraviolet absorption at 232 nm increased proportionally to the decrease in viscosity of the substrate solution. Finally these substrates were degraded to the extent of 100% to disaccharides. By the enzyme action the main products from chondroitin sulfate A and C were deta 4,5-unsaturated disaccharides, which were identified as 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-3-O-(Beta-D-gluco-4-enepyranosyluronic acid)-4-O-sulfo-D-galactose and 2-acet-amido-2-deoxy-3-O-(Beta-D-gluco-4-enepyranosyluronic acid)-6-O-sulfo-D-galactose by paper chromatography, ultraviolet absorption spectroscophy, and infrared spectroscopy. Thus it is suggested that the chondroitinase is a chondroitin sulfate A and C lyase, one of the hyaluronate lyases (EC 4.2.99.1).  相似文献

SB-424323 is a new, orally active anti-thrombotic agent presently in phase-II clinical development, with limited hemorrhagic risk and a unique mechanism of action involving the induction of glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) biosynthesis. The objective of the present study was to develop a simple and rapid high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method for determination of endogenous GAGs derived disaccharides in plasma samples from a phase-II clinical study of SB-424323. Sample preparation was a simple heat treatment of the diluted plasma followed by digestion of endogenous GAGs with chondroitinase ABC to yield unsaturated disaccharides, 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-3-O-(beta-D-gluco-4-enepyranosyluronic acid)-D-galactose (DeltaDi-0S), 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-3-O-(beta-D-gluco-4-enepyranosyluronic acid)-4-O-sulfo-D-galactose (DeltaDi-4S), and 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-3-O-(beta-D-gluco-4-enepyranosyluronic acid)-6-O-sulfo-D-galactose (DeltaDi-6S). These disaccharides were recovered and purified using centrifugal filtration through a filter with 3000 molecular weight cut-off along with externally added internal standard 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-3-O-(2-O-sulfo-beta-D-gluco-4-enepyranosyluronic acid)-D-galactose (DeltaDi-UA2S). A gradient reverse phase HPLC separation was developed on a Waters Symmetry C(18) column (4.6 mm x 150 mm, 5 microm) with a gradient mobile phase system consisting of 0.8 mM tetrabutylammonium hydrogen sulfate and 2mM sodium chloride and acetonitrile at a flow rate of 1.0 mL/min. The eluate was monitored with an ultraviolet detector set at 230 nm. Plasma standard curves were linear (r(2)> or =0.994) in the concentration range 1.0-20 microg/mL with a lower limit of quantification (LLOQ) of 1.0 microg/mL for each of the disaccharide. The mean measured quality control (QC) concentrations for the disaccharides deviated from the nominal concentrations in the range of -8.92 to 5.61% and -16.3 to 16.7%, for inter and intra-day, respectively. The inter and intra-day precision in the measurement of QC samples, were in the range of 3.21 to 18.2% relative standard deviation (R.S.D.) and 0.32 to 20.9% R.S.D., respectively. The inter and intra-day precision in the measurement of endogenous GAGs derived disaccharides in human control plasma, were in the range of 5.8 to 15.9% R.S.D. and 1.17 to 7.74% R.S.D., respectively. Stability of the processed samples was confirmed up to 48 h in the auto-sampler. The method is simple, reliable, and easily adaptable to analysis of large number of samples under logistics of a clinical study. The present method has been used to investigate the GAGs levels in the plasma of patients in a phase II clinical study of SB-424323.  相似文献

Chondroitin 6-sulfate depolymerizing activity was examined in the culture supernatant of Streptococcus intermedius ATCC 27335. 2-Acetamido-2-deoxy-3-O-(beta-D-gluco-4-enepyranosyluronic acid)-6-O-sulfo-D-galactose was split from the substrate. The enzyme(s) was not active upon chondroitin 4-sulfate or dermatan sulfate, which indicated that the enzyme responsible for the depolymerization is chondroitinase C.  相似文献

Hyaluronan (HA) has been identified as the principal glycosaminoglycan (CAG) in the highly hydrated, extracellular body matrix of the larval stage (leptocephalus) of seven species of true eels (Teleostei: Elopomorpha: Anguilliformes) and the ladyfish Elops saurus (Elopiformes), and was found as a minor GAG component in the bonefish Albula sp. (Albuliformes). Identification was based on: (1) HPLC separation of unsaturated disaccharides derived from chondroitinase ABC digests of whole-body GAG extracts; (2) 1H NMR analyses of native GAG polymers; and (3) degradation of GAG extracts by Streptomyces hyaluronan lyase. The unsaturated disaccharide 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-3-O-(beta-D-gluco-4-enepyranosyluronic acid)-D-glucose (DeltaDi-HA) accounted for 92.4-99.8% of the total disaccharides in chondroitinase digests. Trace amounts of unsaturated disaccharides of chondroitin sulfate were also present. Two-dimensional gCOSY spectra of the native HA polymer were similar for all species. Proton assignments for the HA disaccharide repeat (GlcAbeta1-3GlcNAcbeta1-4) in D(2)O, based on gCOSY, DQF-COSY and TOCSY analyses for the eel Ahlia egmontis, were concordant with published chemical shifts for HA oligosaccharides. In addition to its presumed role in maintaining the structural integrity and hydration of the gelatinous body of the leptocephalus, HA is postulated to function as a storage polysaccharide in those species in which it is the predominant GAG.  相似文献

We constructed a human soluble thrombomodulin (sTM) expression vector using the RSV promoter. Recombinant sTM (rsTM) was expressed in CHO cells and was recovered from culture medium by ion exchange chromatography. Two active fractions, designated as rsTM alpha (low salt elution) and rsTM beta (high salt elution), were detected and further purified by immunoaffinity chromatography. Purified rsTM beta contained bound chondroitin-4-sulfate as judged by HPLC detection of the chondroitinase ABC and AC I digestion product, 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-3-O-(beta-D-gluco-4-enepyranosyluronic acid)-4-O-sulfo-D-galactose. The apparent Kd values for thrombin of alpha and beta were 7.4 and 1.4 nM respectively. RsTM beta was more effective at inhibition of thrombin clotting activity and had antithrombin III-dependent anticoagulant activity which was not possessed by rsTM alpha. Both anticoagulant activities were lost after chondroitinase treatment of rsTM beta.  相似文献

Oversulphated chondroitin sulphate proteoglycan from squid skin was isolated from 4 M guanidine hydrochloride extract by ion-exchange chromatography, gel chromatography and density gradient centrifugation. The proteoglycan had Mr 3.5 x 10(5), contained on average six oversulphated chondroitin sulphate chains (Mr 4 x 10(4)) bound on a polypeptide of Mr 2.8 x 10(4), and oligosaccharides consisting of both hexosamines, glucuronic acid, sulphates and fucose as the only neutral monosaccharide. The major amino acids of the proteoglycan protein core are glycine (corresponding to about one third of the total amino acids), aspartic acid/asparagine and serine, together amounting to 50% of the total. The proteoglycan was resistant to the proteolytic enzymes V8 protease, trypsin (treated with diphenylcarbamoyl chloride), alpha-chymotrypsin and pronase, while it was completely degraded by papain and to a large extent by collagenase. Pretreated proteoglycan with chondroitinase AC was degraded by pronase to a large extent and slightly by V8 protease and trypsin. The proteoglycan did not interact with hyaluronic acid and did not form self-aggregates. Oversulphated chondroitin sulphate chains were composed of unusual sulphated disaccharide units which were isolated and characterized by HPLC. In particular, it contained 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-3-O-(alpha-L-threo-4-enopyranosyluronic acid)-D-galactose 4-sulphate (delta di-4S) and disulphated disaccharides (delta di-diS) [90% 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-3-O-(alpha-L-threo-4-enopyranosyluronic acid 2/3-sulphate)-D-galactose 6-sulphate (delta di-diSD) and 10% 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-3-O-(alpha-L-threo-4-enopyranosyluronic acid 2/3-sulphate)-D-galactose 4-sulphate (delta di-diSK)] as the major disaccharides, significant amounts of trisulphated disaccharides (delta di-triS) and small amounts of 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-3-O-(alpha-L-threo-4-enopyranosyluronic acid)-D-galactose 6-sulphate (delta di-6S) and 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-3-O-(alpha-L-threo-4-enopyranosyluronic acid)-D-galactose (delta di-OS). Trisulphated disaccharides contained sulphate groups at C-4 and C-6 of the galactosamine and at C-2 or C-3 of the glucuronic acid. By HPLC analysis of a pure preparation of oversulphated chondroitin sulphate, it was found that it contains glucose, galactose, mannose and fucose most likely as branches.  相似文献

Glycosaminoglycan synthesis in mouse mastocytoma   总被引:4,自引:4,他引:0       下载免费PDF全文
The glycosaminoglycan synthesis in Furth solid mastocytoma tissue has been studied. Approx. 10% of the polysaccharide isolated after incubation in vitro with [(14)C]-glucosamine was digestible with chondroitinase ABC and the product of digestion was identified as 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-3-O-(beta-d-gluco-4-enepyranosyluronic acid)-4-O-sulpho-d-galactose. Similarly, labelling of polysaccharide in vivo with (35)SO(4) (2-) followed by isolation of mast-cell fractions by density-gradient centrifugation on colloidal silica revealed the presence of a polysaccharide which migrated as did chondroitin sulphate on electrophoresis in barium acetate. Chondroitinase ABC produced the same digestion product as before. Finally, the presence of the UDP-N-acetylgalactosamine-chondroitin 6-sulphate hexasaccharide N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase previously implicated in chondroitin sulphate biosynthesis was demonstrated in microsomal particles from fractions of purified mast cells.  相似文献

High-performance liquid chromatographic analyses of chondroitin lyase AC or ABC hydrolysates revealed unexpected high content of material coeluting with the nonsulfated disaccharide 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-3-O-(β-d-gluco-4-enepyranosyl uronic acid)-d-galactose. Incubation of a commercial preparation of the 6-sulfated disaccharide, 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-3-O-(β-d-gluco-4-enepyranosyl uronic acid)-6-O-sulfo-d-galactose with “enriched Tris buffer” generated material coeluting with nonsulfated disaccharide. The amount of material exhibiting this anomalous chromatographic behavior was proportional to the amount of 6-sulfated disaccharide added to the incubation mixture. This suggested a precursor/product relationship between the 6-sulfated disaccharide and the anomalous peak. The result was specific for the 6-sulfated disaccharide: incubation of the 4-sulfated disaccharide, 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-3-O-(β-d-gluco-4-enepyranosyl uronic acid)-4-O-sulfo-d-galactose, with enriched Tris buffer did not generate material with anomalous chromatographic properties. When [35S]sulfate labeled cartilage glycosaminoglycans were hydrolyzed with chondroitin lyases, some of the radioactivity coeluted with the nonsulfated disaccharide. Thus, buffer-induced modification of 6-sulfated disaccharide was not caused by hydrolysis of ester sulfate. Although the proportion of the 6-sulfated disaccharide which was recovered in the anomalous peak was constant for incubations done simultaneously, incubations done at different times gave variable results. Thus, control incubations of 6-sulfated disaccharide with chondroitinase buffer must be included with each reaction series to allow correction for the proportion of the material eluting with nonsulfated disaccharide which is actually 6-sulfated.  相似文献

Proteoglycans were extracted from nuclease-digested sonicates of 10(9) rat basophilic leukemia (RBL-1) cells by the addition of 0.1% Zwittergent 3-12 and 4 M guanidine hydrochloride and were purified by sequential CsCl density gradient ultracentrifugation, DE52 ion exchange chromatography, and Sepharose CL-6B gel filtration chromatography under dissociative conditions. Between 0.3 and 0.8 mg of purified proteoglycan was obtained from approximately 1 g initial dry weight of cells with a purification of 200-800-fold. The purified proteoglycans had a hydrodynamic size range of Mr 100,000-150,000 and were resistant to degradation by a molar excess of trypsin, alpha-chymotrypsin, Pronase, papain, chymopapain, collagenase, and elastase. Amino acid analysis of the peptide core revealed a preponderance of Gly (35.4%), Ser (22.5%), and Ala (9.5%). Approximately 70% of the glycosaminoglycan side chains of RBL-1 proteoglycans were digested by chondroitinase ABC and 27% were hydrolyzed by treatment with nitrous acid. Sephadex G-200 chromatography of glycosaminoglycans liberated from the intact molecule by beta-elimination demonstrated that both the nitrous acid-resistant (chondroitin sulfate) and the chondroitinase ABC-resistant (heparin/heparan sulfate) glycosaminoglycans were of approximately Mr 12,000. Analysis of the chondroitin sulfate disaccharides in different preparations by amino-cyano high performance liquid chromatography revealed that 9-29% were the unusual disulfated disaccharide chondroitin sulfate di-B (IdUA-2-SO4----GalNAc-4-SO4); the remainder were the monosulfated disaccharide GlcUA----GalNAc-4-SO4. Subpopulations of proteoglycans in one preparation were separated by anion exchange high performance liquid chromatography and were found to contain chondroitin sulfate glycosaminoglycans whose disulfated disaccharides ranged from 9-49%. However, no segregation of subpopulations without both chondroitin sulfate di-B and heparin/heparan sulfate glycosaminoglycans was achieved, suggesting that RBL-1 proteoglycans might be hybrids containing both classes of glycosaminoglycans. Sepharose CL-6B chromatography of RBL-1 proteoglycans digested with chondroitinase ABC revealed that less than 7% of the molecules in the digest chromatographed with the hydrodynamic size of undigested proteoglycans, suggesting that at most 7% of the proteoglycans lack chondroitin sulfate glycosaminoglycans.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)  相似文献

The fast atom bombardment (FAB) collision induced dissociation (CID)-mass spectrometry/mass spectrometry (MS/MS) technique was successfully applied to characterize and identify the structures of the immunoreactive trisulfated and tetrasulfated tetrasaccharides that were obtained from the chondroitin sulfate in a shark fin using a treatment with chondroitinase ABC.Abbreviations FABMS fast atom bombardment mass spectrometry - CID collision induced dissociation - MS/MS mass spectrometry/mass spectrometry - UA2S-GalNAc6S 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-3-O-(2-O-sulfo--d-gluco-4-enepyranosyluronic acid)-6-O-sulfo-d-galactose - UA-GalNAc4S 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-3-O-(-d-gluco-4-enepyranosyluronic acid)-4-O-sulfo-d-galactose - UA-GalNAcDiS 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-3-O-(-d-gluco-4-enepyranosyluronic acid)-4,6-di-O-sulfo-d-galactose  相似文献

The disaccharide repeating-units of heparan sulfate   总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11  
Five disaccharides have been isolated after degradation of heparan sulfate by heparinase (heparin lyase) and heparitinase (heparan sulfate lyase) and are suggested to represent the repeating units of the polysaccharide. They all contain a 4,5-unsaturated uronic acid residue and are: (a) A trisulfated disaccharide that is apparently identical to a disaccharide repeating-unit of heparin; (b) a disulfated disaccharide that seems unique for heparan sulfate and contains 2-deoxy-2-sulfamidoglucose and uronic acid sulfate residues; (c) a nonsulfated disaccharide containing a 2-acetamido-2-deoxyglucose residue; (d) a monosulfated disaccharide containing a 2-acetamido-2-deoxyglucose sulfate residue; and (e) a monosulfated disaccharide containing a 2-deoxy-2-sulfamidoglucose residue. Yields of these disaccharides from different heparan sulfate fractions are discussed in relation to possible arrangements of these units in the intact polymer.  相似文献

Fast atom bombardment tandem mass spectrometry has been used in the characterization of non-, mono-, di- and trisulfated disaccharides from chondriotin sulfate, dermatan sulfate and hyaluronan. The positional isomers of the sulfate group of mono- and disulfated disaccharides were distinguished from each other by both positive- and negative-ion fast atom bombardment tandem mass spectra, which gave sufficient information characteristic of the isomers. The anomeric isomers of nonsulfated disaccharides were characterized by the technique in the positive-ion mode. This fast atom bombardment collision induced dissociation mass spectrometry/mass spectrometry technique was also applied successfully to the characterization of trisulfated disaccharide.Abbreviations FABMS fast atom bombardment mass spectrometry - MI metastable ion - CID collision induced dissociation - MIKE mass analysed ion kinetic energy - SIMS secondary ion mass spectrometry - MS/MS mass spectrometry/mass spectrometry - HPLC high performance liquid chromatography - GlcA d-gluco-4-enepyranosyluronic acid - CS chondroitin sulfate - DS dermatan sulfate - HA hyaluronan - UA-GalNAc 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-3-O-(-d-gluco-4-enepyranosyluronic acid)-d-galactose - UA-GalNAc4S 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-3-O-(-d-gluco-4-enepyranosyluronic acid)-4-O-sulfo-d-galactose - UA-GalNAc6S 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-3-O-(-d-gluco-4-enepyranosyluronic acid)-6-O-sulfo-d-galactose - UA2S-GalNAc 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-3-O-(2-O-sulfo--d-gluco-4-enepyranosyluronic acid)-d-galactose - UA2S-GalNAc4S 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-3-O-(2-O-sulfo--d-gluco-4-enepyranosyluronic acid)-4-O-sulfo-d-galactose - UA2S-GalNAc6S 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-3-O-(2-O-sulfo--d-gluco-4-enepyranosyluronic acid)-6-O-sulfo-d-galactose - UA-GalNAcDiS 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-3-O-(-d-gluco-4-enepyranosyluronic acid)-4,6-di-O-sulfo-d-galactose - UA2S-GalNAcDiS 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-3-O-(2-O-sulfo--d-gluco-4-enepyranosyluronic acid)-4,6-di-O-sulfo-d-galactose - UA-GlcNAc 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-3-O-(-d-gluco-4-enepyranosyluronic acid)-d-glucose  相似文献

Proteoglycans synthesized in cultured mast cells derived from horse serum-immunized lymph node cells were analyzed. Treatment of the 35S-proteoglycans extracted from these cells with either chondroitinase ABC or AC resulted in 95% +/- 7% and 84% +/- 7%, respectively (mean +/- S.E., n = 3), of the radioactivity associated with disaccharides eluting in the included volume of PD-10. The 35S-proteoglycans were not hydrolyzed by nitrous acid elimination treatment. The chondroitinase ABC-generated disaccharides were analyzed by aminocyano high performance liquid chromatography. 35S-Disaccharides eluted in a major peak at a retention time of 8.1 min, corresponding to the disaccharide of chondroitin 4-sulfate proteoglycan (delta Di-4S), and a second peak at 12 min, corresponding to the disaccharide of chondroitin sulfate D proteoglycan (delta Di-diSD). Further treatment with chondro-4-sulfatase did not affect the retention time of the disaccharide corresponding to delta Di-diSD whereas this peak disappeared after the digested proteoglycan was treated either by chondro-6-sulfatase or by both sulfatases. Therefore, this disaccharide was identified as chondroitin sulfate D. Quantification of the radiolabeled disaccharides showed that delta Di-diSD contributed 20% +/- 2% (n = 3) of the total sulfated disaccharides of the chondroitin sulfate of these cultured cells. The role of fibroblasts in inducing the shift of chondroitin sulfate D into heparin proteoglycan in these mast cells was also investigated by using three types of monolayers: mouse embryonic skin fibroblasts (MESF), rat embryonic skin fibroblasts (RESF), and 3T3 fibroblasts. 35S-Proteoglycans that were extracted from the lymph node-derived mast cells cultured for 30 days on MESF and on 3T3 fibroblast monolayers were 93% +/- 4% and 30% +/- 7% (n = 3) susceptible to nitrous acid elimination, respectively. No degradation by nitrous acid was observed in 35S-proteoglycans extracted from cells cultured on RESF monolayer. Since the MESF was found to be the most potent monolayer in the induction of heparin synthesis, the kinetics of changes in the synthesis of proteoglycan types were determined in lymph node-derived mast cells cultured on MESF for up to 30 days. It was found that the synthesis of chondroitin sulfate gradually declined whereas that of heparin starting between 4 and 7 days after plating gradually increased. From the 17th day on, only the synthesis of heparin was detected.  相似文献

We have developed techniques for the separation of unsulfated (2-acetamido-2-deoxy-3-O-(4-deoxy-alpha-L-threo- hex-4-enopyranosyluronicacid)-D-galactose and -D-glucose), monosulfated (2-acetamido-2-deoxy-3- O-(4-deoxy-2-O-sulfo-alpha-L-threo-hex-4-enopyranosyluronic acid)-D-galactose and 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-3-O-(4-deoxy-alpha-L-threo-hex- 4-enopyranosyluronic acid)-4-sulfo-D-galactose and -6-sulfo-D-galactose),disulfated (2-acetamido-2-deoxy-3-O-(4-deoxy-2-O-sulfo-alpha-L-threo-hex-4- enopyranosyluronic acid)-4-sulfo-D-galactose and -6-sulfo-D-galactose and 2-acet-amido-2-deoxy-3-O-(4-deoxy-alpha-L-threo-hex-4-enopy- ranosyluronic acid)-4,6-di-O-sulfo-D-galactose), and trisulfated (2-acetamido-2-deoxy-3-O-(4-deoxy-2-O- sulfo-alpha-L-threo-hex-4-enopyranosyluronic acid)-4,6-di-O-sulfo-D-galactose) isomers of chondroitin using capillary zone electrophoresis. In addition, it is possible to separate oligomers of hyaluronan by similar protocols. These techniques represent a rapid, sensitive, and reproducible technique for the assay of these molecules from digests of connective tissues.  相似文献

A high-performance liquid chromatography method for analyzing disaccharides derived from chondroitin sulfate glycosaminoglycans has been developed which employs a Whatman Partisil-10 PAC amino-cyano column and an acetonitrile/methanol/ammonium acetate solvent to resolve disulfated, monosulfated, and unsulfated disaccharides in a chromatographic run of less than 20 min. The single known trisulfated chrondroitin disaccharide can be eluted in an alternate solvent system containing the same mobile phase components in different proportions. Disaccharides were prepared for chromatography from glycosaminoglycans and proteoglycans of known compositions by digestion with chondroitinase ABC, with the exception of king crab cartilage glycosaminoglycan which was incubated sequentially with hyaluronidase and chondroitinase ABC. Disaccharides were extracted from the digestion mixtures in 80% ethanol, dried over nitrogen, resuspended in the HPLC solvent, and chromatographed at a flow rate of 1 ml/min. Unsaturated disaccharides in the column eluate were detected by continuous ultraviolet absorbance monitoring at 232 nm; alternatively, fractions were collected and assayed for uronic acid content or radioactivity. By utilizing the HPLC technique in conjunction with chondroitinase ABC and AC digestion and sulfatase hydrolysis, the epimeric structures of chondroitin sulfates E and H were confirmed. With this technique, rapid and reproducible analyses of chondroitin sulfate disaccharides generated from mouse mast cell proteoglycan and from glycosaminoglycans of squid cranial cartilage, shark skin, hagfish skin, and hagfish notocord were in close agreement with compositions obtained by other techniques.  相似文献

Rats infected with the helminth Nippostrongylus brasiliensis were injected i.p. with 2 mCi of [35S] sulfate on days 13, 15, 17, and 19 after infection. The intestines were removed from animals on day 20 or 21 after infection, the intestinal cells were obtained by collagenase treatment and mechanical dispersion of the tissue, and the 35S-labeled mucosal mast cells (MMC) were enriched to 60 to 65% purity by Percoll centrifugation. The cell-associated 35S-labeled proteoglycans were extracted from the MMC-enriched cell preparation by the addition of detergent and 4 M guanidine HCl and were partially purified by density gradient centrifugation. The isolated proteoglycans were of approximately 150,000 m.w., were resistant to pronase degradation, and contained highly sulfated chondroitin sulfate side chains. Analysis by high-performance liquid chromatography of chondroitinase ABC-treated 35S-labeled proteoglycans from these rat MMC revealed that the chondroitin sulfate chains consisted predominantly of disaccharides with the disulfated di-B structure (IdUA-2SO4----GalNAc-4SO4) and disaccharides with the monosulfated A structure (G1cUA----GalNAc-4SO4). The ratio of disaccharides of the di-B to A structure ranged from 0.4 to 1.6 in three experiments. Small amounts of chondroitin sulfate E disaccharides (GlcUA----GalNAc-4,6-diSO4) were also detected in the chondroitinase ABC digests of the purified rat MMC proteoglycans, but no nitrous acid-susceptible heparin/heparan sulfate glycosaminoglycans were detected. The presence in normal mammalian cells of chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans that contain such a high percentage of the unusual disulfated di-B disaccharide has not been previously reported. The rat intestinal MMC proteoglycans are the first chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans that have been isolated from an enriched population of normal mast cells. They are homologous to the chondroitin sulfate-rich proteoglycans of the transformed rat basophilic leukemia-1 cell and the cultured interleukin 3-dependent mouse bone marrow-derived mast cell, in that these chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans as well as rat serosal mast cell heparin proteoglycans are all highly sulfated, protease-resistant proteoglycans.  相似文献

Four constitutive enzymes, capable of degrading keratan sulfate, were isolated from Pseudomonas sp.: a particulate endoglycosidase, a soluble endoglycosidase, a soluble exo-beta-D-galactosidase and a soluble exo-beta-D-N-acetylglucosaminidase. The endoglycosidases were shown to act only upon keratan sulfate forming beta-D-2-acetamido-2-deoxy-6-O-sulfoglucosyl-(1----3)-D-galactose, as the main product. This results indicates that the enzyme catalyses the hydrolysis of beta-D-galactose-(1----4)-N-acetylglucosamine linkages. It was also shown that this monosulfated disaccharide inhibits the particulate keratan sulfate endoglycosidase. The bovine nucleus pulposus keratan sulfate is depolymerized at a lower rate and extent when compared to the corneal keratan sulfate. The soluble endoglycosidase is very labile, in contrast to the particulate enzyme, which has been stored at -20 degrees C or at 4 degrees C for at least 12 months with no loss in activity. The particulate endoglycosidase and the soluble exo-beta-D-galactosidase and exo-beta-D-N-acetylglucosaminidase are induced when the bacteria is grown in adaptative media containing either 0.1% keratan sulfate or 0.1% chondroitin sulfate. Furthermore, particulate forms of the exoenzymes were detected. The soluble endoglycosidase specific activity, in contrast, is approximately the same in extracts of cells grown in glucose, keratan sulfate or chondroitin sulfate. A chondroitin sulfate lyase was also identified in the soluble extracts of Pseudomonas sp. cells. This enzyme depolymerizes chondroitin 4-sulfate, chondroitin 6-sulfate and hyaluronic acid forming unsaturated disaccharides as main products. It is also active upon the glucuronic-acid-containing regions of the dermatan sulfate molecules. The properties of the soluble enzymes, further purified by ion-exchange chromatography, and of the particulate keratan sulfate endoglycosidase are presented.  相似文献

The structure of a unique focose-branched chondroitin sulfate isolated from the body wall of a sea cucumber was examined in detail. This glycosaminoglycan contains side chain disaccharide units of sulfated fucopyranosyl units linked to approximately one-half of the glucuronic acid moieties through the O-3 position of the acid. The intact polysaccharide is totally resistant to chondroitinase degradation, whereas, after defucosylation, it is partially degraded by the enzyme. However, only after an additional step of desulfation, the chondroitin from sea cucumber is almost totally degraded by chondroitinase AC or ABC. This result, together with the methylation and NMR studies of the native and chemically modified polysaccharide, suggest that besides the fucose branches, the sea cucumber chondroitin sulfate contains sulfate esters at position O-3 of the beta-D-glucuronic acid units. Furthermore, the proteoglycan from the sea cucumber chondroitin sulfate is recognized by anti-Leu-7 monoclonal antibody, which specifically recognizes 3-sulfoglucuronic acid residues. In analogy with the fucose branched units, the 3-O-sulfo-beta-D-glucuronosyl residues are resistant to chondroitinase degradation. Regarding the position of the glycosidic linkage and site of sulfation in the fucose branches, our results suggest high heterogeneity. Tentatively, it is possible to suggest the preponderance of disaccharide units formed by 3,4-di-O-sulfo-alpha-L-fucopyranosyl units glycosidically linked through position 1----2 to 4-O-sulfo-alpha-L-fucopyranose. Finally, the presence of unusual 4/6-disulfated disaccharide units, together with the common 6-sulfated and non-sulfated units, was detected in the chondroitin sulfate core of this polysaccharide.  相似文献
