Bishydrazides are versatile linkers for attaching glycans to substrates for lectin binding and pathogen detection schemes. The α,ω-bishydrazides of carboxymethylated hexa(ethylene glycol) (4) can be conjugated at one end to unprotected oligosaccharides, then attached onto carrier proteins, tethered onto activated carboxyl-terminated surfaces, or functionalized with a photoactive cross-linking agent for lithographic patterning. Glycoconjugates of bishydrazide 4 can also be converted into dithiocarbamates (DTCs) by treatment with CS(2) under mild conditions, for attachment onto gold substrates. The immobilized glycans serve as recognition elements for cell-surface lectins and enable the detection and capture of bacterial pathogens such as Pseudomonas aeruginosa by their adsorption onto micropatterned substrates. A detection limit of 103 cfu/mL is demonstrated, using a recently introduced method based on optical pattern recognition. 相似文献

Mammalian cell-surface receptors typically display N- or O-linked glycans added post-translationally. Plant lectins such as phytohemagluttinin (PHA) can activate the T cell receptor (TCR) and other cell-surface receptors by binding to glycans and initiating receptor cross-linking. Pathogenic microorganisms such as Bordetella pertussis also express proteins with lectin-like activities. Similar to plant lectins, pertussis toxin (PTx) can activate the TCR and bind to a variety of glycans. However, whether the lectin-like activity of PTx is responsible for its ability to activate TCR signaling has not been formally proven. Here we examined the ability of PTx and a panel of lectins to activate the TCR or a CD8α/CD3ζ chimeric receptor (termed CD8ζ). We demonstrate that CD8ζ rescues PTx-induced signaling events lacking in TCR null cells. This result indicates that CD8ζ can substitute for TCR and supports the hypothesis that PTxB (functioning as a lectin) stimulates signaling via receptor cross-linking rather than by binding to a specific epitope on the TCR. Moreover, PTx is able to activate signaling by binding either N-linked or O-linked glycan-modified receptors as the TCR displays N-linked glycans while CD8ζ displays O-linked glycans. Finally, studies with a diverse panel of lectins indicate that the signaling activity of the lectins does not always correlate with the biochemical reports of ligand preferences. Comparison of lectin signaling through TCR or CD8ζ allows us to better define the structural and functional properties of lectin-glycan interactions using a biologically based signaling readout. 相似文献

Glycans or carbohydrates attached to therapeutic glycoproteins can directly affect product quality, safety and efficacy, and therefore must be adequately analyzed and controlled throughout product life cycles. However, the complexity of protein glycosylation poses a daunting analytical challenge. In this study, we evaluated the utility of a lectin microarray for assessing protein glycans. Using commercial lectin chips, which contain 45 lectins toward distinct glycan structures, we were able to determine the lectin binding patterns of a panel of 15 therapeutic proteins, including 8 monoclonal antibodies. Lectin binding signals were analyzed to generate glycan profiles that were generally consistent with the known glycan patterns for these glycoproteins. In particular, the lectin-based microarray was found to be highly sensitive to variations in the terminal carbohydrate structures such as galactose versus sialic acid epitopes. These data suggest that lectin microarray could be used for screening glycan patterns of therapeutic glycoproteins. 相似文献

Bovine binucleate trophoblast giant cells (BNCs) produce large amounts of PAS-positive cytoplasmic granules. After fusion of BNCs with uterine epithelial cells, the contents of these granules are released into the maternal stroma which underlies the uterine epithelium. Histochemically, the granules can be labeled with N-acetylgalactosamine-specific lectins ( Dolichos biflorus, Vicia villosa, and Wisteria floribunda agglutinins) and with Phaseolus vulgaris leucoagglutinin. In this study, we used lectin western blot analysis of proteins from fetal cotyledons to characterize the lectin binding glycoproteins. Lectin western blots showed several bands. A main band of approximately 65 kDa was identified as pregnancy-associated glycoproteins (PAGs) and a double band at 34-35 kDa as prolactin-related protein-I (PRP-I) by their crossreactivity with specific antisera. Enzymatic cleavage of N-linked glycans with peptide- N-glycanase F abolished the lectin binding to PRP and PAGs in western blots, revealing that the lectins bound to asparagine-linked glycans. The high specificity of the lectins was used for the enrichment of PRP-I and PAGs from placental cotyledons with Vicia villosa lectin affinity chromatography. The occurrence of the relatively uncommon asparagine-linked N-acetylgalactosaminyl glycans on secretory proteins of the BNCs suggests a functional role of this specific glycosylation pattern. 相似文献

We have tested the application of high-mannose-binding lectins as analytical reagents to identify N-glycans in the early secretory pathway of HeLa cells during subcellular fractionation and cytochemistry. Post-endoplasmic reticulum (ER) pre-Golgi intermediates were separated from the ER on Nycodenz–sucrose gradients, and the glycan composition of each gradient fraction was profiled using lectin blotting. The fractions containing the post-ER pre-Golgi intermediates are found to contain a subset of N-linked α-mannose glycans that bind the lectins Galanthus nivalis agglutinin (GNA), Pisum sativum agglutinin (PSA), and Lens culinaris agglutinin (LCA) but not lectins binding Golgi-modified glycans. Cytochemical analysis demonstrates that high-mannose-containing glycoproteins are predominantly localized to the ER and the early secretory pathway. Indirect immunofluorescence microscopy revealed that GNA colocalizes with the ER marker protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) and the COPI coat protein β-COP. In situ competition with concanavalin A (ConA), another high-mannose specific lectin, and subsequent GNA lectin histochemistry refined the localization of N-glyans containing nonreducing mannosyl groups, accentuating the GNA vesicular staining. Using GNA and treatments that perturb ER–Golgi transport, we demonstrate that lectins can be used to detect changes in membrane trafficking pathways histochemically. Overall, we find that conjugated plant lectins are effective tools for combinatory biochemical and cytological analysis of membrane trafficking of glycoproteins. 相似文献

Eight plant lectins were used to investigate membrane alterations in lymphocytes from patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). By rosetting with lectins attached to latex particles, the cell percentages with the abundance of each lectin receptor were compared in B normal and leukemic lymphocytes. Comparing these data with the number of lectin molecules bound to each cell and the affinity, which are values calculated with 125I-labeled lectins, it was possible to deduce differences in the composition of glycoproteins in B normal and B-CLL lymphocytes membrane. Compared to B normal, B-CLL lymphocytes had fewer receptors for WGA and more for Lens culinaris, SBA and Tetragonolobus purpureus lectins. Receptors for Concanavalin A, Pisum sativum, PHA and Tetragonolobus purpureus showed a higher affinity with B normal lymphocytes, while the other lectins assayed showed more affinity with B-CLL lymphocytes. So, it is possible to establish a comparative analysis about the plasma membrane glycoproteins in the B normal and CLL lymphocytes by lectin binding studies. 相似文献

Ralstonia solanacearum wilts many plants, causing heavy agricultural losses. Its pathogenic strain ATCC 11696 produces 2 hemagglutinating lectins: RSL and RS-IIL. These lectins may bind to terminal l-fucose-, d-arabinose-, and d-mannose-bearing seedling xylem cell wall glycans, thus enabling pathogen adhesion to them, with devastating infection establishment. Blocking the active sites of these lectins with seed embryo-surrounding oligo- and poly-saccharides hampers binding of the lectins to the embryos. The current study shows that seeds of cashew, cocoa, coffee, pumpkin, and tomato contain low and high molecular mass glycans that block RSL and RS-IIL (like its homologous Pseudomonas aeruginosa PA-IIL lectin). The blocking of the pathogen lectins, which is attributable to the documented composition of the oligo- and poly-saccharides of these seeds, is similar to that observed with animal glycoproteins of avian egg whites (protecting their embryos from infections) and of milk and royal jelly, which likewise protect mammal and bee neonates, respectively. RSL was most strongly inhibited by cashew seed glycans, and RS-IIL by coffee seed glycans. Western blot analyses with these lectins instead of antibodies revealed the hitherto undescribed presence of lectin-binding glycoproteins in the coffee, pumpkin, tomato, and cashew (but not cocoa) seeds. The use of these lectins for unveiling potent embryo-protecting seed glycans might be helpful for seedling-bioprotection projects similar to those planned for animal protection against antibiotic-resistant infections. 相似文献

For many years, molecular interactions with vascular endothelium have been studied in vitro on cultured endothelial cells. Yet, it is clear that the different environmental conditions in vivo vs. in vitro may cause phenotypic drift and altered expression of cell surface molecules. In this study, we identify several endothelial surface proteins of similar apparent molecular mass by radioiodination of cultured microvascular cells and by intravascular radioiodination of rat heart endothelium in situ. The radioiodinated surface polypeptides detected by sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) (followed by autoradiography) were subjected to lectin affinity chromatography in order to provide an additional screen for identifying common surface glycoproteins and a means for partial characterization of their glycans. With a battery of 18 lectins, seven major (gp140, gp120, gp100, gp85, gp75, gp60, gp47) and 6 minor (gp330, gp300, gp180, gp160, gp150, gp42) glycoproteins were identified on the cultured cells each with a different lectin binding profile. The lectin binding profiles of many endothelial glycoproteins in situ were similar to those of their counterparts in culture. A common set of seven major glycoproteins with the same apparent molecular masses was found in situ as well as in vitro. These common glycoproteins were characterized further using both sialidase digestion and sequential lectin affinity chromatography of cell lysates. Most of the glycoproteins appear to have both complex-type N-linked and O-linked glycans except for gp60 with only O-linked glycans, gp47 with only complex N-linked sugars, and gp42 with only simple N-linked sugars. A subset of sialoglycoproteins (gp140, gp120, gp100, gp60, gp47) was identified. One of them, gp120, is podocalyxin based on immunoprecipitation with specific antiserum and another one, gp60, is a recently identified albumin binding protein on the surface of cultured microvascular endothelial cells. This study shows that gp60 is indeed present on the surface of endothelium in situ and that it is a sialoglycoprotein with typical O-linked glycans. It is apparent that the continuous type of microvascular endothelium can indeed express in culture and in situ a common set of major glycoproteins. 相似文献

Two endogenous cerebellar mannose binding lectins have been isolated in an active form by immunoaffinity chromatography employing their respective immobilized antibodies. One of them, termed cerebellar soluble lectin (CSL), was extracted in the absence of detergents, whereas the other, called Receptor 1 (R1), was soluble only in the presence of detergents. Tests of inhibition of agglutination of erythrocytes were performed with mono-, oligo and polysaccharides, as well as glycoconjugates of known structures. On the basis of agglutinating activities these 2 lectins are different from the previously reported lectins in brain, since they were not inhibited by galactosides and lactosides and were only marginally inhibited by glycosaminoglycans. CSL and R1 were better inhibited by mannose-rich glycopeptides as compared to the corresponding oligosaccharides. The different inhibition patterns obtained with glycans of known structures indicated that these lectins are very discriminative. Although CSL and R1 have similar specificities, they differed in their binding properties towards glycopeptides of ovalbumin. Both lectins showed considerable affinity for endogenous cerebellar glycopeptides, also rich in mannose. These glycopeptides belong to a few endogenous Con A-binding cerebellar glycoprotein subunits and are not present on other endogenous Con A-binding glycoproteins. In the forebrain, where CSL and R1 were also present, at least some of the glycoproteins interacting with the lectins were different from that observed in the cerebellum. Our data overall suggest that specific cell recognition in the nervous system could be invoked via the interactions between widely distributed lectins and cell-specific glycoproteins. 相似文献

Protein-carbohydrate interactions play crucial roles in numerous biological processes. To study these interactions, we developed a simple and fast procedure for the biotinylation of carbohydrates based on reductive amination. The method allows complete and stable biotinylation of small quantities of oligosaccharides and includes a rapid and simple procedure to remove excess labeling reagent. After biotinylation, the structural and biological integrity of the glycans was intact as determined by HPLC, mass spectrometry, and a plant lectin assay. By using the human C-type lectin DC-SIGN (dendritic cell-specific ICAM-3-grabbing nonintegrin), we demonstrate that the biotinylated glycans can be used in a glycan array to determine binding specificities of lectins. Moreover, we show that fluorescent beads coated with selected biotinylated glycans bind to DC-SIGN-expressing dendritic cells in vitro. Finally, by using biotinylated high-mannose N-glycans, we could visualize DC-SIGN-expressing cells in lymph node tissue. The availability of easy biotinylation methods for oligosaccharides such as those described here greatly facilitates the functional analysis of lectins. In addition, the biotinylated glycans will be great tools for investigating functional lectin receptors in situ. 相似文献

Effect of concanavalin A and its succinylated derivative on the oxidative metabolism of guinea pig peritoneal macrophages 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The effect of concanavalin A and its succinylated derivative on the metabolic regulation of guinea pig peritoneal macrophages was observed. The binding of tetravalent concanavalin A to the surface glycoproteins of macrophages caused a marked increase in the rate of oxygen consumption due to the activation of the hexose monophosphate shunt. Divalent succinylated concanavalin A, also induced a similar change in the rate of oxygen metabolism. The metabolic change induced by these two types of lectin was reversibly inhibited by alpha-methyl-D-glucoside, a haptenic inhibitor of these lectins, and was temperature dependent (observed at above 15 degrees C). It is suggested that the binding of these lectins to the surface glycoproteins, and not their cross-linking into caps, is required for the activation of oxygen metabolism of macrophages, and that highly fluid state of the plasma membrane seems to be an essential requirement for the transduction of glycoprotein perturbation on the macrophage surface into cellular interior via transmembrane control mechanism. 相似文献

It is well known that cell surface glycans or glycocalyx play important roles in sperm motility, maturation and fertilization. A comprehensive profile of the sperm surface glycans will greatly facilitate both basic research (sperm glycobiology) and clinical studies, such as diagnostics of infertility. As a group of natural glycan binders, lectin is an ideal tool for cell surface glycan profiling. However, because of the lack of effective technology, only a few lectins have been tested for lectin-sperm binding profiles. To address this challenge, we have developed a procedure for high-throughput probing of mammalian sperm with 91 lectins on lectin microarrays. Normal sperm from human, boar, bull, goat and rabbit were collected and analyzed on the lectin microarrays. Positive bindings of a set of ~50 lectins were observed for all the sperm of 5 species, which indicated a wide range of glycans are on the surface of mammalian sperm. Species specific lectin bindings were also observed. Clustering analysis revealed that the distances of the five species according to the lectin binding profiles are consistent with that of the genome sequence based phylogenetic tree except for rabbit. The procedure that we established in this study could be generally applicable for sperm from other species or defect sperm from the same species. We believe the lectin binding profiles of the mammalian sperm that we established in this study are valuable for both basic research and clinical studies. 相似文献

The thermodynamics and kinetics of binding of glycans and glycoproteins to Ganoderma lucidum lectin was studied using surface plasmon resonance. The lectin showed highest affinity for asialo triantennary N glycan (Ka = 3.52 x 10(5)) among the glycans tested. There was a several fold increase in affinity for glycoproteins compared to their corresponding glycans and coincident increase in contribution from enthalpy (DeltaH), suggesting the involvement of hydrogen bonding in the interaction as well as involvement of protein-protein interactions. Increased affinity also showed increase in unfavorable negative binding entropy (DeltaS) which was compensated with higher enthalpy. The glycoproteins showed faster association rates (k(1)) and the activation energy (E(1)) in the association process was much lower for the glycoproteins than glycans, resulting in their faster associations. These observations elaborate the role of protein matrix in lectin-glycoconjugate interaction. 相似文献

A method is described for a titre-tray based two-site lectinoenzymatic assay of glycoproteins. WGA lectin, reacting with the
core-part of glycans, was combined with lectins PNA and DBA, the latter two reacting with terminal parts of glycans. A standard
curve was obtained with bovine submaxillary gland asialomucin, and measurements of human rectal secretion were calibrated
against this curve. The assay showed an intra-assay reproducibility of 2.4–7.5%, and inter-assay reproducibility of 3.9–20.8%
Recovery tests showed a linearity close to predicted values. The selected standard was ideal as inhibition of lectin binding
by monosaccharides showed similar inhibition profiles for human rectal secretion and for asialomucin standard. Neuraminidase
treatment dramatically increased the PNA binding to human rectal secretion immobilized on WGA. Western blotting of human rectal
secretion demonstrated a large range of lectin-reactive glycoproteins, the main fraction reacting with all lectins being approximately
250 kDa. The assay described is well suited for studies of the glycan part of tumour marker glycoproteins, and changes occurring
in these. It has a high sensitivity by ignoring that the glycans may be present on different molecules. Examination of rectal
secretions from various cancer patients showed significantly increased PNA binding, as well as an increased PNA/DBA binding
ratio, in patients with colorectal cancer (p<3×10-3) and, unexpectedly, in patients with other cancers (p<5×10-3). Abbreviations: HRS, human rectal secretion; PNA, peanut agglutinin; DBA, dolichos biflorus agglutinin; WGA, wheat

In the lamprey, adrenocorticotropin (ACTH) and melanotropins (MSHs) are produced from two distinct precursors, proopiocortin (POC) and proopiomelanotropin (POM). Both POC and POM have been suggested to be glycoproteins. The present study aimed to demonstrate glycoconjugates in ACTH and MSH cells in the pituitary of adult sea lampreys (Petromyzon marinus) by means of a lectin histochemistry. A total of 19 kinds of lectins were tested. ACTH cells were distributed in both the rostral pars distalis and the proximal pars distalis, and were stained positively with N-acetylglucosamine binding lectins (i.e., succinylated wheat germ agglutinin), N-acetylgalactosamine binding lectins (i.e., soybean agglutinin), D-mannose binding lectins (i.e., Lens culinaris agglutinin), and D-galactose binding lectins (i.e., Erythrina cristagall lectin). MSH cells were distributed in the pars intermedia, and were stained with N-acetylgalactosamine binding lectins (i.e., Dolichos biflorus agglutinin), D-mannose binding lectin (Pisum sativum agglutinin) and D-galactose binding lectins (i.e., peanut agglutinin). These results suggested that ACTH and MSH cells produce different types of glycoconjugates which may be attributed to the difference in glycoconjugate moieties between the precursor proteins, POC and POM. 相似文献

The rattlesnake (Crotalus atrox) venom lectin is a readily-prepared decameric C-type lectin, specific for Gal and GalNAc. Glycan microarray analysis showed
it reacted with a wide range of glycans, chiefly recognizing sets of compounds with Galβ1-4GlcNAc (LacNAc), α-Gal or α-GalNAc
non-reducing termini. Its array profile was therefore distinctly different from those of four previously studied mammalian
C-type lectins with the same Gal/GalNAc monosaccharide specificity, and it was more broadly reactive than several Gal- or
GalNAc-specific plant lectins commonly used for glycan blotting. Though a general reactivity towards glycoproteins might be
expected from the avidity conferred by its high valence, it showed a marked preference for glycoproteins with multiple glycans,
terminated by Gal or GalNAc. Thus its ten closely-spaced sites each with a KD for GalNAc of ~2 mM appeared to make RSVL more selective than the four more widely-spaced sites of soybean agglutinin, with
a ten-fold better KD for GalNAc. 相似文献

Abstract— The chloroform-methanol insoluble residue of adult rat brain myelin fractions (My-CMI) contains only 20% of protein but all myelin-associated glycoproteins (Z anetta et al ., 1977a). After solubilization in sodium dodecyl sulphate, these glycoproteins were separated by sequential affinity chromatography on 4 immobilized lectins. Ten fractions (9 of which contained only glycoproteins) were obtained. Glycoproteins added up to at least 25% of My-CMI proteins. Many minor glycoproteins were detected in the different fractions. However most of them appeared not to be intrinsic to myelin. On the contrary a major glycoprotein electrophoretic band, component A, appeared to be intrinsic to myelin although its presence also on oligodendrocyte plasma membrane cannot be excluded. Component A was tentatively identified with the'major myelin associated glycoprotein'described by QUARLES (1972, 1973 a, b ). It accounted for less than 0.4% of proteins and 8% of glycoproteins of myelin fractions and consisted of at least two'glycopolypeptides'which, both, bind to concanavalin A and to the Ulex europeus lectin. The other major glycoprotein, component B, did not bind to any of the lectins used and, thus, must have N -acetyl neuraminic acid as only terminal sugar. The separation of myelin-associated glycoproteins according to their affinity for lectins allowed a tentative identification of the lectin binding sites of myelin sheath. 相似文献
