The lipopeptidophosphoglycan of epimastigote forms of Trypanosoma cruzi is composed of a glycan linked through a non-N-acetylated glucosamine residue to an inositol phosphorylceramide. Using conventional analysis techniques, including 1H, 13C, and 31P NMR spectroscopy and negative ion fast atom bombardment mass spectroscopy, the structure of the carbohydrate-containing part of the molecule is determined as: (Sequence: see text). There is uncertainty as to which 2-O-substituted alpha-D-Manp unit is attached the side chain or whether it is distributed between the two units. Some of the structures lack the Galf side chain. The inositol unit is linked to ceramide via a phosphodiester bridge. The major aliphatic components of the ceramide portion were lignoceric acid and sphinganine. 相似文献

The lipopeptidophosphoglycan is the major cell surface glycoconjugate of the epimastigote forms of the parasitic protozoan Trypanosoma cruzi. A detailed partial structure for this molecule has been reported (Previato, J. O., Gorin, P. A. J., Mazurek, M., Xavier, M. T., Fournet, B., Wieruszesk, J. M., and Mendonca-Previato, L. (1990) J. Biol. Chem. 265, 2518-2526). In this study, we complete the primary structure assignments and describe the microheterogeneity found in the lipopeptidophosphoglycan glycan, using a combination of 1H and 31P NMR, fast atom bombardment mass spectrometry, methylation linkage analysis, and exoglycosidase sequencing. The lipopeptidophosphoglycan is a glycosylated inositol-phosphoceramide with striking homology to glycosylphosphatidylinositol membrane anchors found attached to a wide variety of plasma membrane proteins throughout the eukaryotes. 相似文献

Structural features of the acidic, highly substituted glycanoxylan (LCP; 87% yield) from the gum exudate of the palm, Livistona chinensis, family Arecaceae, were determined. It had [alpha]D -30 degrees, Mw 1.9x10(5) and a polydispersity ratio Mw/Mn of approximately 1.0. Acid hydrolysis gave rise to Rha, Fuc, Ara, Xyl, and Gal, in a 1:6:46:44:3 molar ratio, and 12% of uronic acid was present. LCP had a highly branched structure with side-chains containing nonreducing end-units (% values are approximate) of Araf (15%), Fucp (4%), Xylp (7%), GlcpA, and 4-Me-GlcpA, and internal 2-O- (5%) and 3-O-substituted Araf (8%), and 2-O-substituted Xylp (14%) units. The (1-->4)-linked beta-Xylp main-chain units of LCP were substituted at O-3 (4%), O-2 (17%), and O-2,3 (16%). Partial acid hydrolysis gave 4-Me-alpha-GlcpA-(1-->2)-[beta-Xylp-(1-->4)](0-2)-Xyl, identified by showing that the uronic acids were single-unit side-chain substituents on O-2. Milder hydrolysis conditions removed from O-3 other side-chains containing Fucp and Araf nonreducing end-units and internal Arap, and 2-O- and 3-O-substituted Araf units. Carboxyl-reduced LCP contained 4-O-methylglucose and glucose in a 3.2:1 molar ratio, arising from GlcpA and 4-OMe-GlcpA nonreducing end-units, respectively. The gum contained small amounts of free alpha-Fucp-(1-->2)-Ara, which corresponds to structures in the polysaccharide. Free myo- and D- or L-chiro-inositol were present in a 9:1 ratio. 相似文献

The polysaccharide isolated from the gum exudate of palm Scheelea phalerata (SPN) was water-insoluble and composed of Fuc, Ara, Xyl, and uronic acid moieties in a 5:34:54:7 molar ratio: 12% of phenolics were also present. A soluble polysaccharide (SPNa) was obtained after alkaline treatment, which contained Fuc, Ara, Xyl and uronic acid in a 7:44:42:7 molar ratio, with only 2% phenolics. SPNa had an M(W) approximately 1.04 x 10(5) g mol(-1) and was almost monodisperse (M(W)/M(N) : 1.25 +/-0.22). It had a branched structure with side chains of 2-O-substituted Xylp (approximately 8%) and 3-O-substituted Araf (12%) units, and a large proportion of nonreducing end-units of Araf (15%), Fucp (10%), Xylp (4%), and Arap (6%). The (1 --> 4)-linked beta-Xylp main-chain units were 3-O- (9%), 2-O- (13%), and 2,3-di-O- (13%) substituted. Its (13)C NMR spectrum contained at least 9 C-1 signals, those at delta 108.6 and 107.7 arising from alpha-Araf units. Others were present at delta 175.4 from C-6 of alpha-GlcpA and delta 15.6 from C-6 of Fucp units. The main chain of SPNa was confirmed by analysis of a Smith-degraded polysaccharide (SPDS): methylation analysis provided a 2,3-Me(2)-Xyl (65%) derivative and its (13)C NMR spectrum showed five main signals typical of a (1 --> 4)-linked beta-Xylp units. Methylation analysis of a carboxy-reduced polysaccharide (SPN-CR) revealed a 2,3,4,6-Me(4)-Glc derivative (4%) arising from nonreducing end-units of GlcpA. Alpha-GlcpA-(1 --> 2)-alphabeta-Xy1p and alpha-GlcpA-(1 --> 2)-beta-Xylp-(1 --> 4)-alphabeta-Xylp were obtained via partial acid hydrolysis of SPN, showing the structure of side-chain substituents on O-2 of the main-chain units. 相似文献

The peeling reaction, the process by which oligosaccharides are degraded in alkali, was used as the basis for an assay to provide structural information about glycosidically linked oligosaccharides in glycoproteins. Glycoproteins were treated with 0.05 M NaOH at 50 degrees to induce release, and subsequent degradation ("peeling"), of glycosidically linked, but not of N-glycosydically linked, oligosaccharides. Among the degradation products generated from O-linked chains were three 3-deoxy sugar acids whose formation was correlated with certain structural features of the oligosaccharides. N-Acetylneuraminic acid was released from terminal positions in the oligosaccharides, and iso- and meta-saccharinic acids were derived from the degradation of 4-O- and 3-O-substituted hexoses, respectively. All of these sugar acids were detected colorimetrically by periodate oxidation and reaction of the product with 2-thiobarbituric acid. The ability of the method to generate 3-deoxy sugar acids was tested in 8 alkali-treated glycoproteins. 3-Deoxy sugar acids were detected only in those glycoproteins whose glycosidically linked carbohydrates contained N-acetylneuraminic acid, or 3-O- or 4-O-substituted hexoses, or both. As little as 0.12 microgram of 3-deoxy sugar acid produced from 5 micrograms of human chorionic gonadotropin was sufficient for detection. This method is novel in its ability to distinguish sialylation of glycosidically linked carbohydrates. Furthermore, it combines the specificity of beta-elimination with the sensitivity of the 2-thiobarbituric acid assay in targeting degradation products of the peeling reaction as candidates for an assay method. 相似文献

Transfer of D-galactosyl groups to 6-O-substituted 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-D-glucose residues by use of bovine D-galactosyltransferase 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Bovine D-galactosyltransferase was found to transfer D-galactose from UDP-galactose to 6-O-substituted 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-beta-D-glucopyranosides. The resulting 6-O-substituted N-acetyllactosamines were readily synthesized in milligram amounts and conveniently isolated on a reverse-phase support when prepared as the 8-methoxycarbonyloctyl glycosides. The 6-O-substitution tolerated by the enzyme include an alpha-L-fucopyranosyl group and the methyl ester of alpha-linked N-acetylneuraminic acid, but not the free acid itself. The product trisaccharides were characterized by 1H-n.m.r. spectroscopy and fast-atom-bombardment mass spectrometry. 相似文献

The chemical composition of two plasma membrane fractions from epimastigote forms of Trypanosoma cruzi is reported. Fraction M, a preparation obtained by conventional methods of cell fractionation is composed of 31% proteins, 34% lipids, 16% carbohydrates and 3% of the lipopeptidophosphoglycan. Phospholipids and sterols account for 7.5 and 9%, respectively, of the total mass. Phosphatidylethanolamine is the major phospholipid in fraction M, representing 45% of the total membrane phospholipids. The other fraction, fraction V (vesicles), was obtained by treatment of the cell with a vesiculating agent. This fraction contains 42% lipids, 20% carbohydrates, 13% proteins and 21% of the lipopeptidophosphoglycan. Phospholipids and sterols make up 17 and 8%, respectively, of the total mass of this fraction. Phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine are the main phospholipids found in fraction V. Phosphonolipids and sialic acid have not been detected in either membrane fraction. Sodium dodecyl sulphate polyacrylamide gel electrophoretic analysis show that the glycoproteins ABC and the lipopeptidophosphoglycan are 50- and 10-times more concentrated, respectively, in fractions V and M than in the whole cell homogenate. The high molar sterol/phospholipid ratio found in fraction M suggests that this fraction is less fluid than fraction V, perhaps reflecting a migration of certain membrane components in the presence of the vesiculating agent. Hence, fraction M is, probably, more representative of the epimastigote plasma membrane as a whole than fraction V. 相似文献

Cell wall and soluble polysaccharides that reacted with Trichosporon domesticum factor III serum were isolated from the type strain of T. domesticum. The fractions contained O-acetyl groups, which contributed to the serological reactivity. The antigenic structure was characterized by chromatographic and spectroscopic methods. The polysaccharide has an alpha-(1-->3)-D-mannan backbone with hetero-oligosaccharide side chains consisting of a 2-O-substituted beta-D-glucuronic acid residue bound to O-2 of the mannose residue, beta-D-xylopyranosyl residues located in the middle of the side chain, and a nonreducing terminal alpha-L-arabinopyranosyl residue bound to 0-4 of xylose. The mannan backbone is O-acetylated at O-6 of the mannose residues. 相似文献

A series of 4-O-substituted 2beta,3beta-difluorosialic acid derivatives (3a-d) has been synthesized. A key intermediate was synthesized efficiently by the electrophilic syn-addition of fluorine to the double bond of a glycal precursor using molecular fluorine or xenon difluoride in the presence of BF(3).OEt(2). Among compounds 3a-d, the 4-O-thiocarbamoylmethyl derivative 3c showed the most potent inhibitory activity against sialidase of human parainfluenza virus type 1. [structure: see text]. 相似文献

A lipopeptidophosphoglycan was extracted from epimastigote forms of Trypanosomacruzi by phenol (44%) treatment of sonicated cells. The substance was purified from other glycoproteins and nucleic acid as follows: ethanol frationation, Bio-Gel P-150 column chromatography in the presence of 0.1% sodium dodecyl sulfate, extraction with chloroform/methanol/water (10 : 10 : 3) and precipitation of the pure compound by methanol. The substance migrated as a single band in sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis stained with periodic acid-Schiff and Coomassie blue. In the absence of sodium dodecyl sulfate very little or no migration was observed in 5% and 10% of the gels respectively, suggesting the formation of aggregates. In such gels a Sudan Black positive reaction coincident with the periodic acid-Schiff positive band was obtained. Neutral sugars (60%, by phenol-sulfuric acid assay) were analysed by paper chromatography and gas-liquid chromatography. The following ratio was found: mannose : galactose : glucose = 35 : 22 : 1. Glucosamine, identified by paper chromatography, was colorimetrically estimated (0.8%). Sialic acid was not detected. Analysis by the biuret method gave 9.5% protein. All phosphorus present (2%) was released by hydrolysis, thus apparently excluding the possibility of an alkyl phosphonic acid as a structural component.Fatty acids were detected by thin layer chromatography in a hexane extract of the acid hydrolysate. Gas-liquid chromatography of the esterified mixture showed that the main component had the same retention time as palmitic acid methyl ester. The infrared spectrum was consistent with the general structure and indicated the presence of α-glycopyranosyl linkages. Low concentrations of the lipopeptidophosphoglycan were able to inhibit the concanavalin A-induced agglutination of epimastigotes. 相似文献

Successive aqueous and alkaline extraction of the thallus of the lichenized fungus Heterodermia obscurata provided a highly branched glucomannan fraction (GM), whose chemical structure was determined. This was based on monosaccharide composition, methylation, partial acid hydrolysis, and NMR spectroscopic analysis. It consisted of a main chain of (1→6)-linked α-D-mannopyranosyl units, almost all being substituted at O-2 with α-D-glucopyranosyl, α-D-mannopyranosyl, and 4-O-substituted α-D-mannopyranosyl groups. Intra-peritoneal administration of this GM induced a marked and dose-dependent inhibition of acetic acid-induced visceral pain with an ID(50) of 0.6 (0.2-2.0) mg/kg and inhibition of 88±4%. It also reduced leukocyte migration by 58±4%, but did not alter plasmatic extravasation to the peritoneal cavity. The results suggest that the glucomannan from the H. obscurata might have potential for antinociceptive and anti-inflammatory utilization. 相似文献

Aqueous phenol extraction of the lower trypanosomatid Leptomonas samueli released into the aqueous layer a chloroform/methanol/water-soluble glycophosphosphingolipid fraction. Alkaline degradation and purification by gel filtration chromatography resulted in a tetrasaccharide (phosphatidylinositol (PI)-oligosaccharide A), and a pentasaccharide (PI-oligosaccharide B), each containing 2 mol of 2-aminoethylphosphonate and 1 mol of phosphate. Nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and fast atom bombardment-mass spectrometry suggested that the structure of PI-oligosaccharide A is [formula: see text] and that of PI-oligosaccharide B is as shown. [formula: see text] Both compounds contain an inositol unit linked to ceramide via a phosphodiester bridge. The major aliphatic components of the ceramide portion are stearic acid, lignoceric acid, and C20-phytosphingosine. These novel glycolipids fall within the glycosylated phosphatidylinositol (GPI) family, since they contain the core structure Man alpha (1-->4)GlcNH2 alpha (1-->6)myo-inositol-1-PO4, which is also found in the glycoinositolphospholipids and lipophosphoglycan of Leishmania spp., the L. major promastigote surface protease, the glycosylphosphatidylinositol anchor of Trypanosoma brucei variant surface glycoprotein, and the lipopeptidophosphoglycan of Trypanosoma cruzi. The glycophosphosphingolipids of Leptomonas have features in common with the glycolipids of both Leishmania and T. cruzi, resembling the former by the alpha (1-->3) linkage of mannose to the GPI core, while the 2-aminoethylphosphonate substituent on O-6 of glucosamine and the presence of ceramide in place of glycerol lipids is more reminiscent of T. cruzi. Thus these data lend some support to the hypothesis that both T. cruzi and Leishmania evolved from a Leptomonas-like ancestor. 相似文献

Lipopeptidophosphoglycan, extracted from whole cells of epimastigote forms of Trypanosoma cruzi, has now been shown to contain 12.6% of fatty acids in addition to the previously identified content of neutral sugars (60%), glucosamine (0.8%), peptide (9.5%) and acid-hydrolyzable phosphate (2%). The main fatty acids are palmitic (6.9%) and lignoceric (4.6%) acids. Stearic (0.55%), oleic (0.15%) and myristic (0.18%) acids were also found. One third of the fatty acids are bound in the lipopeptidophosphoglycan as esters (14 mmol%) and two thirds as amides (28 mmol%). Lignoceric acid was found to be bound only as amide. Two ninhydrin-positive compounds, obtained by chloroform extraction of a total acid hydrolysate of the lipopeptidophosphoglycan, were tentatively identified as sphingosine bases. 相似文献

An allergenic pentasaccharitol, Gp-1 beta-b6, was isolated as a minimum structural unit responsible for the allergic reaction in skin of patients with sea squirt allergy from a saccharitol fraction, Gp-1 beta-b, that had been liberated by beta-elimination from a glycopeptide in a Pronase digest of a sea squirt antigen, Gi-rep. Methylation/GC-MS and FAB-MS analyses indicated the sugar sequence of Gp-1 beta-b6 to be GalNAcl----2Fucl----(GalNAc1----) 3,4GlcNAc1----3GalNAc-ol. To analyze the structure in more detail, Gp-1 beta-b6 was labeled with p-aminobenzoic acid ethyl ester (ABEE), i.e., the reducing terminal 3-O-substituted GalNAc-ol of the saccharitol was oxidized to 2-O-substituted L-ThrNAc with equimolar periodate, and the resultant aldehyde was labeled with ABEE by reductive amination. The ABEE-labeled Gp-1 beta-b6 was subjected to sequential exoglycosidase digestion with beta-N-acetylhexosaminidase, alpha-N-acetylgalactosaminidase, and alpha-fucosidase, and the digests were chromatographed on an HPLC column of TSK gel Amide 80. From the results of the HPLC, methylation/GC-MS, and FAB-MS analyses of the digests of the labeled substrate, the structure of Gp-1 beta-b6 was determined to be GalNAc alpha 1----2Fuc alpha 1----3(GalNAc beta 1----4)GlcNAc beta 1----3GalNAc-ol. Enzymatic elimination of either the non-reducing terminal beta-GalNAc or the non-reducing terminal alpha-GalNAc led to inactivation of the allergenic pentasaccharitol. Accordingly, it is possible that the allergenic saccharitol contains two disaccharide units as the allergy-specific epitopes, one GalNAc alpha 1----2Fuc alpha 1---- and the other GlcNAc beta 1----4GLcNAc beta 1----. 相似文献

The oligosaccharide products resulting from treatment of mucin-type glycoproteins with alkali in the presence of the sulfite anion have been investigated. Treatment of fetuin and of tryptic glycopeptides from the human erythrocyte with this reagent resulted in the release of sulfited oligosaccharides identified as N-acetylsulfohexosamine (HexNAcSO3), alpha-NeuAc-(2----6)-HexNAcSO3, and alpha-NeuAc-(2----3)-Gal-(1----3 or 4)-[GlcNAc-(1----6)]-HexNAcSO3. In addition, 2.7 moles of sialic acid were released per mole of alpha-NeuAc-(2----6)-HexNAcSO3 from fetuin. The sulfohexosamine moiety is formed via unsaturated intermediates from a 3-O-substituted 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-D-galactosyl residue at the carbohydrate-peptide linkage site when this residue is not substituted at O-4 by another sugar residue. A reaction mechanism accounting for the release of the sulfited oligosaccharides from a 3-O- and 6-O-substituted hexosamine is proposed in which the oligosaccharide branch attached to O-6 is obtained as a specific fragment terminating in sulfohexosamine. 相似文献

In vivo incorporation of palmitic acid and galactose in glycolipids of Trypanosoma cruzi epimastigotes 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Incubation of epimastigote forms of Trypanosoma cruzi with (3H)-palmitic acid and (3H)-galactose, respectively, results in the incorporation of both precursors into the lipopeptidophosphoglycan (LPPG) and in at least two glycosphingolipids. Palmitic acid was incorporated into sphinganine and sphingenine, identified after hydrolysis, respectively, of the major and the minor glycosphingolipid. The purified glycosphingolipids labeled with either precursor migrated with a Rf similar to that of a sample labeled by periodate oxidation and borotritide reduction in which sialic acids have been previously characterized. This, together with the fact that the palmitic acid labeled glycosphingolipids were partially hydrolysed with neuraminidase favors a ganglioside-like structure for these compounds. 相似文献

The 1G7-antigen is expressed by the infective metacyclic trypomastigote stage of the protozoan parasite Trypanosoma cruzi. The 1G7-antigen is a 90-kDa glycoprotein, present at about 40,000 copies/cell, which is anchored in the plasma membrane via a glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) membrane anchor. The glycan of the GPI anchor has been isolated from immunopurified 1G7-antigen and its structure determined using a combination of methylation linkage analysis and exoglycosidase sequencing. The structure of the glycan is Man alpha 1-2Man alpha 1-2Man alpha 1-6Man alpha 1-4GlcNH2. The glucosamine residue is in glycosidic linkage to a phosphatidylinositol moiety. The penultimate nonreducing alpha-Man residue is substituted with phosphate, which is most likely part of an ethanolamine phosphate bridge linking the GPI anchor to the 1G7-antigen polypeptide. The glycan sequence was obtained from 1.1 nmol of glycoprotein isolated from a detergent lysate of whole cells. The procedures reported here represent a high sensitivity protocol for determining GPI glycan structures from small quantities of biological material. The structure of the 1G7-antigen GPI anchor is consistent with the conserved core structure of all GPI anchors analyzed to date and is similar to that of the T. cruzi lipopeptidophosphoglycan. The biosynthesis of GPI anchors and lipopeptidophosphoglycan in T. cruzi is discussed in the light of this structural homology. 相似文献

Cell surface glycoconjugates of epimastigotes of Trypanosoma cruzi have been isolated and analyzed to give their amino acid and carbohydrate compositions. Those which have been investigated are a complex of three closely associated glycoproteins, GP24, GP31, GP37, and a lipopeptidophosphoglycan. The GP24-GP31-GP37 complex has an unusual amino acid composition with very low levels of hydrophobic amino acids, it contains 56% (w/w) carbohydrate, with mannose, galactose and glucosamine (presumably N-acetyl) being present in approximately equal quantities. The lipopeptidophosphoglycan also has low levels of hydrophobic amino acids and contains equal levels of mannose and galactose together with lesser amounts of (N-acetyl) glucosamine. The glycoconjugates are contrasted and compared with two other previously characterised cell surface glycoproteins (GP25 and GP72) from T. cruzi. 相似文献

A series of the 8-O-substituted A-ring pyrrole derivatives of duocarmycin bearing the simplified DNA-binding moieties such as cinnamoyl or heteroarylacryloyl groups were synthesized, and evaluated for in vitro anticellular activity against HeLa S3 cells and in vivo antitumor activity against murine sarcoma 180 in mice. In addition, the stability of the 8-O-substituted analogues in aqueous solution and the conversion to their active form (cyclopropane compound) from the 8-O-substituted analogues in mice or human serum were examined. The 8-O-substituted A-ring pyrrole derivatives bearing the simplified DNA-binding moieties showed remarkably potent in vivo antitumor activity and low peripheral blood toxicity compared with the 8-O-substituted A-ring pyrrole derivatives having the trimethoxyindole skeleton in segment-B (Seg-B), which were equal to 8-O-[(N-methylpiperazinyl)carbonyl] derivatives of 4'-methoxycinnamates and 4'-methoxy-beta-heteroarylacrylates. Moreover, among 8-O-substituted analogues, several compounds can be chemically or enzymatically converted to their active form in human serum. This result indicated that new 8-O-substituted derivatives were different prodrugs from KW-2189 and 8-O-substituted analogues being the same type of prodrug as KW-2189. 相似文献

The cultured photobiont Trebouxia sp. of Ramalina celastri was successively extracted at 100 degrees C with hot water, 2% aqueous KOH, and 10% aqueous KOH to give polysaccharide-containing fractions A (2.9%), B (3.9%), and C (0.9% yield) respectively. The intact biont contained 3.8% amylose, which was present in each fraction, and was identified by a blue color formed with iodine solution. In fraction A, and following retrogradation from aqueous solution, it was characterized by (13)C-NMR spectroscopy. Fraction B was treated with alpha-amylase to give a water-soluble fraction consisting mainly of beta-mannose-containing polysaccharides (1.5% yield), whose main component had dn/dc 0.162 and M(r) 17 kDa. Fraction C was subjected to freeze-thawing and the precipitate was treated with alpha-amylase to give a resistant, linear, low molecular mass (1-->4)-linked beta-xylan. The beta-D-mannopyranan preparation contained mainly of 3-O- (28%), 4-O- (11%), and 6-O-substituted Manp units (35%), with 3-O-substituted Rhap units (11%). A controlled Smith degradation provided a beta-mannan with nonreducing end- (8%), 3-O- (85%) and 6-O-substituted units, showing (1-->3)- and (1-->6)-linked structures in the original polysaccharide. These could be present as block-type structures. 相似文献
