Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) is a hormone involved in cardiovascular homeostasis through its natriuretic and vasodilator actions. The ANP receptor that mediates these actions is a glycosylated transmembrane protein coupled to guanylate cyclase. The role of glycosylation in receptor signaling remains unresolved. In this study, we determined, by a combination of HPLC/MS and Edman sequencing, the glycosylation sites in the extracellular domain of ANP receptor (NPR-ECD) from rat expressed in COS-1 cells. HPLC/MS analysis of a tryptic digest of NPR-ECD identified five glycosylated peptide fragments, which were then sequenced by Edman degradation to determine the glycosylation sites. The data revealed Asn-linked glycosylation at five of six potential sites. The type of oligosaccharide structure attached at each site was deduced from the observed masses of the glycosylated peptides as follows: Asn13 (high-mannose), Asn180 (complex), Asn306 (complex), Asn347 (complex), and Asn395 (high-mannose and hybrid types). Glycosylation at Asn180 and Asn347 was partial. The role of glycosyl moieties in ANP binding was examined by enzymatic deglycosylation of NPR-ECD followed by binding assay. NPR-ECD deglycosylated with endoglycosidase F2 and endoglycosidase H retained ANP-binding activity and showed an affinity for ANP similar to that of untreated NPR-ECD. Endoglycosidase treatment of the full-length ANP receptor expressed in COS-1 cells also had no detectable effect on ANP binding. These results suggest that, although glycosylation may be required for folding and transport of the newly synthesized ANP receptor to the cell surface, the oligosaccharide moieties themselves are not involved in hormone binding. 相似文献

Characterization of the carbohydrate chains of the secreted form of the human epidermal growth factor receptor 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
The human epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) is a transmembrane glycoprotein having 11 potential N-glycosylation sites in its extracellular domain. N-Glycosylation is needed for proper membrane insertion, EGF binding and receptor functioning. The human epidermoid carcinoma A431 cell line secretes a soluble 105 kDa glycoprotein (sEGFR) that represents the extracellular domain of the membrane-bound form, and its glycosylation pattern has been investigated. After liberation of the oligosaccharides from sEGFR with PNGase F, the glycans were fractionated along different routes, including Concanavalin A affinity chromatography, anion-exchange chromatography, HPLC and high-pH anion-exchange chromatography. The oligosaccharide fractions were characterized by 500- and 600-MHz 1H-NMR spectroscopy and mass spectrometry (FAB, ESI, and MALDI-TOF). The oligomannose-type glycans range from Man5GlcNAc2 to Man8GlcNAc2 and account for 17% of the total carbohydrate moiety. Furthermore, di-, tri'- and tetraantennary complex-type structures are present, both neutral and (alpha2-3)-sialylated (up to tetrasialo), comprising 24 and 59%, respectively, of the total carbohydrate moiety. In this study, 32 new complex-type glycans are characterized containing the Le(x), Le(Y), and sialyl-Le(x) determinants, the bloodgroup A and H antigens, as well as the ALe(Y) determinant. This first comprehensive glycosylation study on a human nonrecombinant receptor shows the immense heterogeneity of the glycosylation of sEGFR. 相似文献

We studied the role of glycosylation in the expression of a functional human TSH receptor. Oligonucleotide-directed mutagenesis was used to replace, separately or together, the Asn codons with Gln in each of the six potential glycosylation sites in the receptor. Recombinant wild-type and mutated TSH receptors were stably expressed in Chinese hamster ovary cells. High affinity TSH binding and the cAMP response to TSH stimulation were abolished in the receptor mutated at Asn77 as well as in the receptor mutated at all six potential glycosylation sites. In the receptor mutated at Asn113, the affinity of TSH binding was markedly decreased (Kd, 2.6 x 10(-8) 3.3 x 10(-10) M in the wild-type receptor). This affinity was too low to permit the transduction of a signal, as measured by an increase in intracellular cAMP generation. Substitution of Asn at positions 99, 177, 198, and 302 did not appreciably affect the affinity of the TSH receptor for TSH binding or its ability to mediate an increase in intracellular cAMP levels. Therefore, either these four potential glycosylation sites are not glycolysated, or alternatively, oligosaccharide chains at these positions do not play a major role in the folding, intracellular trafficking, stability, or expression of a functional receptor on the cell surface. Conversely, our data suggest that N-linked glycosylation of Asn77 and Asn113 does play a role in the expression of a biologically active TSH receptor on the cell surface. 相似文献

Proteinase-activated receptor 1 (PAR(1)) induces activation of platelet and vascular cells after proteolytic cleavage of its extracellular N terminus by thrombin. In pathological situations, other proteinases may be generated in the circulation and might modify the responses of PAR(1) by cleaving extracellular domains. In this study, epitope-tagged wild-type human PAR(1) (hPAR(1)) and a panel of N-linked glycosylation-deficient mutant receptors were permanently expressed in epithelial cells (Kirsten murine sarcoma virus-transformed rat kidney cells and CHO cells). We have analyzed the role of N-linked glycosylation in regulating proteinase activation/disarming and cell global expression of hPAR(1). We reported for the first time that glycosylation in the N terminus of hPAR(1) downstream of the tethered ligand (especially Asn(75)) governs receptor disarming to trypsin, thermolysin, and the neutrophil proteinases elastase and proteinase 3 but not cathepsin G. In addition, hPAR(1) is heavily N-linked glycosylated and sialylated in epithelial cell lines, and glycosylation occurs at all five consensus sites, namely, Asn(35), Asn(62), Asn(75), Asn(250), and Asn(259). Removing these N-linked glycosylation sequons affected hPAR(1) cell surface expression to varying degrees, and N-linked glycosylation at extracellular loop 2 (especially Asn(250)) of hPAR(1) is essential for optimal receptor cell surface expression and receptor stability. 相似文献

Oligosaccharide structures present on asparagine-289 of recombinant human plasminogen expressed in a Chinese hamster ovary cell line 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
The oligosaccharide structures linked to Asn289 of a recombinant (r) variant (R561S) human plasminogen (HPg) expressed in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells, after transfection of these cells with a plasmid containing the cDNA coding for the variant HPg, have been determined. Employing high-performance anion-exchange liquid chromatography mapping of the oligosaccharide units cleaved from the protein by glycopeptidase F, compared with elution positions of standard oligosaccharides, coupled with monosaccharide compositional determinations and analyses of sequential exoglycosidase digestions and specific lectin binding, we find that considerable microheterogeneity in oligosaccharide structure exists at this sole potential N-linked glycosylation site on HPg. A variety of high-mannose structures, as well as bi-, tri-, and tetraantennary complex-type carbohydrate, has been found, in relative amounts of 1-25% of the total oligosaccharides. The complex-type structures contain variable amounts of sialic acid (Sia), ranging from 0 to 5 mol/mol of oligosaccharide in the different glycan structures. Neither hybrid-type molecules, N-acetylglucosamine bisecting oligosaccharides, nor N-acetyllactosaminyl-repeat structures were found to be present in the complex-type carbohydrate pool in observable amounts. Of interest, a significant portion of the Sia exists an outer arm structures in an (alpha 2,6) linkage to the penultimate galactose, a novel finding in CHO cell-directed glycosylation.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Tissue factor pathway inhibitor (TFPI) produced by endothelial cells contains sulfated Asn-linked oligosaccharides. We have determined that greater than 70% of the oligosaccharides on recombinant TFPI expressed in 293 cells terminate with the sequence SO4-4GalNAc beta 1, 4GlcNAc beta 1, 2Man alpha. Oligosaccharides terminating with this sequence have previously been described on lutropin, thyrotropin, and pro-opiomelanocortin: glycoproteins synthesized in the anterior pituitary. A GalNAc-transferase that recognizes the tripeptide motif Pro-Xaa-Arg/Lys 6-9 residues N-terminal to Asn glycosylation sites accounts for the specific addition of GalNAc to the oligosaccharide acceptor on these glycoproteins, whereas a GalNAc beta 1,4GlcNAc beta 1, 2Man alpha-4-sulfotransferase accounts for the addition of sulfate. The sulfated oligosaccharides present on these hormones are responsible for their rapid clearance from plasma by a receptor in hepatic reticuloendothelial cells. GalNAc- and sulfotransferase activities with the same properties as those expressed in the pituitary are detected at high levels in 293 cells and at lower levels in endothelial cells. Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells do not contain detectable levels of either transferase and rTFPI expressed in CHO cells does not contain sulfated Asn-linked oligosaccharides. TFPI contains the sequence Pro-Phe-Lys, 9 residues N-terminal to the glycosylation site at position 228; this tripeptide may act as the recognition sequence for the GalNAc-transferase. rTFPI produced by 293 cells, but not that produced by CHO cells, is bound by the receptor on hepatic reticuloendothelial cells suggesting the sulfated structures play a role in the biologic behavior of TFPI. 相似文献

It has been shown previously that chicken ovalbumin synthesized and secreted in a heterologous cell system is glycosylated at the correct site and that the oligosaccharides at that site, similar to the protein made in hen oviduct, are predominantly of the hybrid type (Sheares, B. T., and Robbins, P. W. (1986) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 83, 1993-1997). This site-specific glycosylation of Asn293, but not Asn312, suggested a prominent role for the nascent protein chain rather than the specific cell type in directing the proper attachment of oligosaccharide chains. In the present study, the effect of glycosylation at Asn293 on the glycosylation of Asn312 has been investigated. Using a 20-base oligodeoxynucleotide primer containing a 2-base mismatch, the codon for Asn293 in the chicken ovalbumin gene (AAC) was changed to that for Gln (CAA), thereby preventing glycosylation at amino acid 293. Constructions containing this mutation were transfected into mouse L (tk-) cells which were subsequently labeled with [35S]methionine. Ovalbumin secreted by these cells was recovered by immunoaffinity chromatography and analyzed for the presence of an oligosaccharide attached at Asn312. Treatment of the material with peptide:N-glycosidase F demonstrated that ovalbumin molecules containing Gln substituted for Asn293 were not glycosylated. This further supports our earlier hypothesis that the nascent protein chain is responsible for directing site-specific glycosylation of ovalbumin, and that the presence of an oligosaccharide chain at the first site has no influence on glycosylation at the second site. 相似文献

Lec1 CHO cell glycosylation mutants are defective in N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase I (GlcNAc-TI) activity and therefore cannot convert the oligomannosyl intermediate (Man5GlcNAc2Asn) into complex carbohydrates. Lec1A CHO cell mutants have been shown to belong to the same genetic complementation group but exhibit different phenotypic properties. Evidence is presented that lec1A represents a new mutation at the lec1 locus resulting in partial loss of GlcNAc-TI activity. Structural studies of the carbohydrates associated with vesicular stomatitis virus grown in Lec1A cells (Lec1A/VSV) revealed the presence of biantennary and branched complex carbohydrates as well as the processing intermediate Man5GlcNAc2Asn. By contrast, the glycopeptides from virus grown in CHO cells (CHO/VSV) possessed only fully processed complex carbohydrates, whereas those from Lec1/VSV were almost solely of the Man5GlcNAc2Asn intermediate type. Therefore, the Lec1A glycosylation phenotype appears to result from the partial processing of N-linked carbohydrates because of reduced GlcNAc-TI action on membrane glycoproteins. Genetic experiments provided evidence that lec1A is a single mutation affecting GlcNAc-TI activity. Lec1A mutants could be isolated at frequencies of 10(-5) to 10(-6) from unmutagenized CHO cell populations by single-step selection, a rate inconsistent with two mutations. In addition, segregants selected from Lec1A X parental cell hybrid populations expressed only Lec1A or related lectin-resistant phenotypes and did not include any with a Lec1 phenotype. The Lec1A mutant should be of interest for studies on the mechanisms that control carbohydrate processing in animal cells and the effects of reduced GlcNAc-TI activity on the glycosylation, translocation, and compartmentalization of cellular glycoproteins. 相似文献

Substitution of asparagine for serine-406 of the immunoglobulin mu heavy chain alters glycosylation at asparagine-402 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
W Y Sun J Xiong M J Shulman 《Biochemical and biophysical research communications》1991,179(3):1627-1634
Previous work suggested that the substitution of Asn for Ser at position 406 of the mu heavy chain of mouse IgM results in aberrant glycosylation at Asn402. In order to characterise the apparently abnormal glycosylation process more precisely, the mutant and wildtype mu chains were fragmented by cleavage with cyanogen bromide, and the resulting glycopeptides were analysed further. Measurements of lectin binding specificity as well as glycosidase sensitivity suggest that the oligosaccharide at Asn402 of wildtype mu is a hybrid type which does not contain terminal alpha(2-6) or alpha(2-3) linked sialic acid. By contrast, the corresponding oligosaccharide on Asn402 of mutant mu is complex and contains terminal sialic acid linked alpha(2-6) to galactose. The structural features for specifying the abnormal glycosylation are present in monomeric mutant IgM. 相似文献

Prior to investigating the role of individual glycosylation sites in insulin receptor function, we are mapping the sites of glycosylation in the receptor. We report here a generally applicable methodology for the isolation and identification of glycosylation sites in cell surface glycoproteins. Human insulin receptors were labeled with [3H]-sugars using a CHO cell line transfected with the human receptor cDNA. Labelled receptors were mixed with receptors purified from human placental membranes and tryptic peptides prepared. Peptides were fractionated by gel filtration chromatography to limit the number of non-glycopeptides present. Peptides were then separated by reverse phase HPLC and glycopeptides identified by scintillation counting. Using this technique we have shown the insulin receptor to be glycosylated at Asn 397 and Asn 881. This increase the known number of occupied glycosylation sites to five. 相似文献

Characterization of the glycosylation of a human IgM produced by a human-mouse hybridoma 总被引:2,自引:2,他引:0

We analysed the oligosaccharides of a human IgM produced bya human-human-mouse hybridoma at each of its five conservedheavy chain glycosylation sites. Consistent with previous reports,this IgM possesses sialylated oligosaccharides at Asn171, Asn332and Asn395, and high-mannose-type oligosaccharides at Asn402.In contrast to previous reports for human IgMs, we find thatAsn563 is not occupied by oligosaccharide on perhaps 25% ofIgM heavy chains, while occupied Asn563 sites contain both high-mannose-typeand sialylated oligosaccharides. These latter results are consistentwith the glycosylation at Asn563 previously reported for themouse MOPC 104E IgM. We demonstrate that both the human hybridomaIgM and the mouse MOPC 104E IgM are mixtures of pentamers andhexamers, raising the possibility that the unique findings concerningthe glycosylation at Asn563 in this study and the previous studyof the MOPC 104E IgM could be related, at least in part, tothe different packing requirements of the hexameric geometryand the accessibility of oligosaccharides in the hexameric geometryfor processing to complex type. In addition, we used high-pHanion-exchange (HPAE) chromatography, neutral anion-exchangechromatography, fluorophore-assisted carbohydrate electrophoresisand Western blots to compare the oligosaccharide compositionsof the human hybridoma IgM, pooled human serum IgM and two mousemonoclonal IgMs (MOPC 104E and TEPC 183). Of note is the presenceof N-glycolylneuraminic acid (NeuGc) and N-acetymeuraminic acid(NeuAc) at a 2:1 ratio in the oligosaccharides of the humanhybridoma IgM.

Human leukocyte receptor IIIa (hFcγRIIIa) plays a prominent role in the elimination of tumor cells by antibody-based cancer therapies. In previous studies, a major impact of the presence of carbohydrates at Asn-162 on the binding between the receptor and the Fc part of wild type fucosylated or glycoengineered nonfucosylated antibodies has been shown. In this study, we performed a site directed carbohydrate analysis at hFcγRIIIa derived from human embryonic kidney (HEK) and Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells, respectively. Using mass spectrometry (MS) and a multienzyme protein digest, we analyzed the proteolysis-generated glycopeptides in detail. We could show that hFcγRIIIa expressed by HEK cells was mostly bearing multifucosylated biantennary Asn162-glycans with a major fraction terminating with GalNAc residues replacing the more common Gal. We could demonstrate that the glycan antennae with terminal GalNAc could be sialylated as indicated by a novel reporter ion HexNAcHexNAcNeuAc(+) (m/z 698.28) using a source induced dissociation (SID) scan in the MS cycle. In contrast to the hFcγRIIIa Asn-162 glycosylation pattern from HEK cells, the CHO cells derived receptor contains bi- and triantennary galactosylated and highly sialylated carbohydrates. Our data suggest that the type of expression host system was a dominating factor for formation of distinct glycopatterns of hFcγRIIIa, while the protein sequence and the site of glycosylation remained unchanged for both types of cells. Using surface plasmon resonance (SPR) interaction analysis, we show that the cell type and site specific glycosylation pattern of hFcγRIIIa influences its binding behavior to immunoglobulin molecules. 相似文献

Glycophorin A, the most abundant sialoglycoprotein on human red blood cells, carries several medically important blood group antigens. To study the role of glycosylation in surface expression and antigenicity of this highly glycosylated protein (1 N-linked and 15 O-linked oligosaccharides), glycophorin A cDNA (M-allele) was expressed in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells. Both wild type CHO cells and mutant CHO cells with well defined glycosylation defects were used. Glycophorin A was well expressed on the surface of transfected wild type CHO cells. On immunoblots, the CHO cells expressed monomer (approximately 38 kDa) and dimer forms of glycophorin A which co-migrated with human red blood cell glycophorin A. The transfected cells specifically expressed the M blood group antigen when tested with mouse monoclonal antibodies. Tunicamycin treatment of these CHO cells did not block surface expression of glycophorin A, indicating that, in the presence of normal O-linked glycosylation, the N-linked oligosaccharide is not required for surface expression. To study O-linked glycosylation, glycophorin A cDNA was transfected into the Lec 2, Lec 8, and ldlD glycosylation-deficient CHO cell lines. Glycophorin A with truncated O-linked oligosaccharides was well expressed on the surface of ldlD cells (cultured in the presence of N-acetylgalactosamine alone), Lec 2 cells, and Lec 8 cells with monomers of approximately 25 kDa, approximately 33 kDa, and approximately 25 kDa, respectively. In contrast, non-O-glycosylated glycophorin A (approximately 19-kDa monomers) was poorly expressed on the surface of ldlD cells cultured in the absence of both galactose and N-acetylgalactosamine. Thus, under these conditions, in the absence of O-linked glycosylation, the N-linked oligosaccharide itself is not able to support appropriate surface expression of glycophorin A in transfected CHO cells. 相似文献

Recombinant human interferon-gamma (Hu-IFN-gamma) produced by Chinese-hamster ovary (CHO) cells was analysed by immunoprecipitation and SDS/PAGE. Up to twelve molecular-mass variants were secreted by this cell line. Three variants were recovered after enzymic removal of all N-linked oligosaccharides or when glycosylation was inhibited by tunicamycin. The presence of three polypeptide forms rather than a single form suggested that proteolytic cleavage had occurred at two sites in both the glycosylated and non-glycosylated forms. Proteolytically cleaved IFN-gamma was more prevalent in cell lysates than in the secreted glycoprotein. In common with naturally produced IFN-gamma, both fully glycosylated IFN-gamma (asparagine residues 28 and 100 occupied) and partially glycosylated product (thought to be substituted at position Asn28) were secreted. This was deduced from the Mr of the glycosylated products and the relative amounts of sialic acid expressed by each variant. In contrast with naturally produced IFN-gamma, non-glycosylated IFN-gamma was also secreted by the transfected CHO cells. When the cells were grown in batch culture in serum-free medium under pH and dissolved-oxygen control, the proportion of non-glycosylated IFN-gamma increased from 3 to 5% after 3 h, to 30% of the total IFN-gamma present after 195 h. This change in the proportion of glycosylated protein produced was not seen when metabolically labelled IFN-gamma was incubated for 96 h with cell-free supernatant from actively growing CHO cells. This implied that an alteration in intracellular glycosylation was occurring rather than a degradation of oligosaccharide side chains after secretion. The decrease in IFN-gamma glycosylation was independent of the glucose concentration in the culture medium, but could be related to specific growth and IFN-gamma production rates, as these declined steadily after 50 h of culture, in line with the increased production of non-glycosylated IFN-gamma. 相似文献

Post-translational processing of membrane-associated recombinant human stem cell factor expressed in Chinese hamster ovary cells. 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5

This report describes the structure of soluble human stem cell factor isolated from the conditioned medium of Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells transfected with stem cell factor (SCF) cDNA, which encodes a leader sequence plus 248 additional amino acids. The 248 amino acids include a hydrophobic transmembrane region at positions 190-212. The isolated material is glycosylated and three bands (apparent M(r) 28,000, M(r) 35,000, and M(r) 40,000) are evident by sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS)-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. After complete deglycosylation, the molecular weight by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis is 18,000-19,000. Structural analyses of the intact SCF, the deglycosylated SCF, and a deglycosylated C-terminal peptide were performed by laser desorption, fast atom bombardment, or electrospray mass spectrometry. Pulse-labeling of cells with 35S-labeled Met and Cys resulted in cell-associated glycosylated SCF of M(r) 33,000-45,000 which was converted to M(r) 33,000 by in vitro treatment with glycosidases. During a chase with unlabeled Met and Cys, labeled SCF of M(r) 28,000, M(r) 35,000, and M(r) 40,000 appeared in the medium; it was converted to M(r) 18,000-19,000 by glycosidase treatment. SCF at the surface of the transfected CHO cells could be demonstrated by immunofluorescence. The data obtained indicate that the recombinant human stem cell factor, as isolated, represents proteolytically processed forms containing amino acids 1-165, derived from the initially synthesized membrane-bound form of 248 amino acids. Further characterization indicated that the M(r) 28,000 form is glycosylated at Asn120, the M(r) 35,000 form at Asn120 and Asn65, and the M(r) 40,000 form at Asn120, Asn93, and Asn65. Each form also contains O-linked carbohydrate. The N-linked glycosylation, particularly that at Asn93 and at Asn65, adversely affects in vitro biological activity and receptor binding. 相似文献

Mutagenesis and gene transfer define site-specific roles of the gonadotropin oligosaccharides 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG), luteinizing hormone (LH), follicle-stimulating hormone and thyroid-stimulating hormone are a family of glycoprotein hormones that share a common alpha subunit but differ in their hormone-specific beta subunits. Using site-directed mutagenesis and gene-transfer, we analyzed the role of the N-linked oligosaccharides of alpha and chorionic gonadotropin (CG)beta in the secretion, assembly, and biologic activity of hCG. Absence of carbohydrate at alpha asparagine (Asn) 52 decreased combination with CG beta but did not alter monomer secretion. Absence of the alpha Asn78 oligosaccharide increased the degradation of the alpha subunit, but the presence of CG beta stabilized this alpha mutant in an efficiently formed dimer complex. Alternatively, absence of both alpha oligosaccharides slowed both secretion and dimer formation but allowed an intermediate level of alpha secreted or dimerized compared to the single-site mutants. Analysis of the CG beta glycosylation mutants revealed that absence of the Asn30 oligosaccharide, but not Asn13, slowed secretion but not assembly, whereas absence of both oligosaccharides slowed both secretion and dimer formation. Analysis of the receptor binding of the hCG glycosylation mutants showed that absence of any or all of the hCG N-linked oligosaccharides had only a minor effect on receptor affinity of the derivatives. However, the absence of alpha Asn52, but not the alpha Asn78 or the CG beta carbohydrate units, reduced the steroidogenic effect, unmasked differences in the beta oligosaccharides, and converted the deglycosylated derivatives into antagonists. 相似文献

Yeast invertase contains 14 sequons, all of which are glycosylated to varying degrees except for sequon 5 which is marginally glycosylated, if at all. This sequon overlaps with sequon 4 in a sequence consisting of Asn92-Asn93-Thr94-Ser95(Reddy et al., 1988, J. Biol. Chem., 263, 6978-6985). To determine whether glycosylation at Asn93is sterically hindered by the oligosaccharide on Asn92, the latter amino acid was converted to a glutamine residue by site-directed mutagenesis of the SUC2 gene in a plasmid vector which was expressed in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. A glycopeptide encompassing sequons 3 through 6 was purified from a tryptic digest of the mutagenized invertase and sequenced by Edman degradation, which revealed that Asn93 of sequon 5 contained very little, if any, carbohydrate, despite the elimination of sequon 4. When Ser and Thr were inverted to yield Asn-Asn-Ser-Thr carbohydrate was associated primarily with the second sequon, in agreement with numerous studies indicating that Asn-X-Thr is preferred to Asn-X-Ser as an oligosaccharide acceptor. However, when the invertase overlapping sequons were converted to Asn-Asn-Ser-Ser, both sequons were clearly glycosylated, with the latter sequon predominating. These findings rule out steric hindrance as a factor involved in preventing the glycosylation of sequon 5 in invertase. Comparable results were obtained using an in vitro system with sequon-containing tri- and tetrapeptides acceptors, in addition to larger oligosaccharide acceptors. 相似文献

Major carbohydrate structures at five glycosylation sites on murine IgM determined by high resolution 1H-NMR spectroscopy 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Mouse myeloma immunoglobulin IgM heavy chains were cleaved with cyanogen bromide into nine peptide fragments, four of which contain asparagine-linked glycosylation. Three glycopeptides contain a single site, including Asn 171, 402, and 563 in the intact heavy chain. Another glycopeptide contains two sites at Asn 332 and 364. The carbohydrate containing fragments were treated with Pronase and fractionated by elution through Bio-Gel P-6. The major glycopeptides from each site were analyzed by 500 MHz 1H-NMR and the carbohydrate compositions determined by gas-liquid chromatography. The oligosaccharide located at Asn 171 is a biantennary complex and is highly sialylated. The amount of sialic acid varies, and some oligosaccharides contain alpha 1,3-galactose linked to the terminal beta 1,4-galactose. The oligosaccharides at Asn 332, Asn 364, an Asn 402 are all triantennary and are nearly completely sialylated on two branches and partially sialylated on the triantennary branch linked beta 1,4 to the core mannose. The latter is sialylated about 40% of the time for all three glycosylation sites. The major oligosaccharide located at Asn 563 is of the high mannose type. The 1H-NMR determination of structures at Asn 563 suggests that the high mannose oligosaccharide contains only three mannose residues. 相似文献

The synthesis of the extensively O-glycosylated attachment protein, G, of human respiratory syncytial virus and its expression on the cell surface were examined in a mutant Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cell line, ldlD, which has a defect in protein O glycosylation. These cells, used in conjunction with an inhibitor of N-linked oligosaccharide synthesis, can be used to establish conditions in which no carbohydrate addition occurs or in which either N-linked or O-linked carbohydrate addition occurs exclusively. A recombinant vaccinia virus expression vector for the G protein was constructed which, as well as containing the human respiratory syncytial virus G gene, contained a portion of the cowpox virus genome that circumvents the normal host range restriction of vaccinia virus in CHO cells. The recombinant vector expressed high levels of G protein in both mutant ldlD and wild-type CHO cells. Several immature forms of the G protein were identified that contained exclusively N-linked or O-linked oligosaccharide side chains. Metabolic pulse-chase studies indicated that the pathway of maturation for the G protein proceeds from synthesis of the 32-kilodalton (kDa) polypeptide accompanied by cotranslational attachment of high-mannose N-linked sugars to form an intermediate with an apparent mass of 45 kDa. This step is followed by the Golgi-associated conversion of the N-linked sugars to the complex type and the completion of the O-linked oligosaccharides to achieve the mature 90-kDa form of G. Maturation from the 45-kDa N-linked form to the mature 90-kDa form occurred only in the presence of O-linked sugar addition, confirming that O-linked oligosaccharides constitute a significant proportion of the mass of the mature G protein. In the absence of O glycosylation, forms of G bearing galactose-deficient truncated N-linked and fully mature N-linked oligosaccharides were observed. The effects of N- and O-linked sugar addition on the transport of G to the cell surface were measured. Indirect immunofluorescence and flow cytometry showed that G protein could be expressed on the cell surface in the absence of either O glycosylation or N glycosylation. However, cell surface expression of G lacking both N- and O-linked oligosaccharides was severely depressed. 相似文献
