Oligosaccharides on invertase restricted to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) in alg3,sec18 yeast at 37 degrees C were found to be 20% wild type Man8GlcNAc and 80% Man1 alpha-->2Man1 alpha-->2Man1 alpha-->3(Man1 alpha-->6)Man1 beta-->4GlcNAc2 (Verostek, M.F., Atkinson, P.H., and Trimble, R. B. (1991) J. Biol. Chem. 266, 5547-5551). These results suggested that alg3 was slightly leaky, but did not address whether the oligosaccharide-lipid Man9GlcNAc2 and Man5GlcNAc2 precursors were glucosylated in alg3 yeast. Therefore, an alg3,sec18,gls1 strain was constructed to delete the GLS1-encoded glucosidase I responsible for trimming the terminal alpha 1,2-linked glucose from newly transferred Glc3ManxGlcNAc2 oligosaccharides. Invertase activity was overexpressed 5-10-fold on transforming this strain with a multicopy plasmid (pRB58) carrying the SUC2 gene, and preparative amounts of the ER form of external invertase, derepressed and accumulated at 37 degrees C, were purified. The N-linked glycans were released by sequential treatment with endo-beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase H (endo H) and peptide-N4-N-acetyl-beta-glucosaminyl asparagine amidase. Oligosaccharide pools were sized separately on Bio-Gel P-4, which showed that endo H released about 17% of the carbohydrate as Glc3Man8GlcNAc, while peptide-N4-N-acetyl-beta-glucosaminyl asparagine amidase released the remainder as Hex8GlcNAc2 and Man5GlcNAc2 in a 1:4 ratio. Glycan structures were assigned by 500-MHz two-dimensional DQF-COSY 1H NMR spectroscopy, which revealed that the endo H-resistant Hex8GlcNAc2 pool contained Glc3Man5GlcNAc2 and Man8GlcNAc2 in a 6:4 ratio, the latter a different isomer from that formed by the ER alpha 1,2-mannosidase (Byrd, J. C., Tarentino, A. L., Maley, F., Atkinson, P. H., and Trimble, R. B. (1982) J. Biol. Chem. 257, 14657-14666). Recovery of Glc3Man8GlcNAc and not the ER form of Man8GlcNAc provided an internal control indicating the absence of glucosidase I, which was confirmed by incubation of [3H]Glc3[14C]Man9GlcNAc with solubilized membranes from either alg3,sec18,gls1 or alg3,sec18,GLS1 strains. Chromatographic analysis of the products showed that [3H]Glc was removed only in the presence of the GLS1 gene product. Thus, the vast majority of the N-linked glycosylation in the ER of alg3 yeast (> 75%) occurs by transfer of Man5GlcNAc2 without prior addition of the 3 glucoses normally found on the lipid-linked precursor.

Alg3 yeast mutants synthesize endoglycosidase H-resistant oligosaccharides whose precursor for elongation is Man1 alpha-->2Man1 alpha-->2Man1 alpha-->3(Man1 alpha-->6)Man1 beta-->4GlcNAc2 (Verostek, M.F., Atkinson, P.H., and Trimble, R. B. (1991) J. Biol. Chem. 266, 5547-5551). To characterize alg3 glycan elongation in vivo, oligosaccharides on alg3,sec18 invertase synthesized and secreted at 26 degrees C were released with peptide-N4-N-acetyl-beta-glucosaminyl asparagine amidase and purified by Bio-Gel P-4 chromatography. Large (Man > 30GlcNAc2) and intermediate (Man5-10GlcNAc2) sized oligosaccharides were pooled separately, and the smaller ones were exchanged with 2H2O for one- and two-dimensional DQF-COSY 1H NMR analyses at 500 MHz. Although there was no detectable substitution of the terminal alpha 1,6-core-linked mannose, addition of alpha 1,6-, alpha 1,2-, and alpha 1,3-mannoses to the alpha 1,3-linked core branch of a majority of the Man5 precursor was analogous to core-filling reactions seen on wild type invertase glycans (Trimble, R.B., and Atkinson, P.H. (1986) J. Biol. Chem. 261, 9815-9824). Two additional types of oligosaccharide structures were found; those which retained glucose and those consistent with mannan elongation. Glucose retention appeared to be due to inefficient trimming from minor glucosylated intermediates, while mannan elongation was by extension of a new alpha 1,6-linked branch from the alpha 1,3-core-linked residue as seen in wild-type core oligosaccharides (Hernandez, L.M., Ballou, L., Alvarado, E., Gillece-Castro, B.L., Burlingame, A.L., and Ballou, C. E. (1989) J. Biol. Chem. 264, 11849-11856) or mnn1,mnn2,mnn10 processing intermediates (Ballou, L., Alvarado, E., Tsai, P-k., Dell, A., and Ballou, C.E. (1989) J. Biol. Chem. 264, 11857-11864). Thus, the alpha 1,6-linked branch additions which form Man9GlcNAc2-PP-dolichol from Man5GlcNAc2-PP-dolichol appear to provide important structural information enabling efficient recognition by the endoplasmic reticulum-glucosyltransferases forming oligosaccharide-lipid as well as the glucosidases involved in early trimming reactions, but the alg3 mutant documents that they are unnecessary for normal yeast mannan elongation.

A major difficulty with isolating enzymatically or chemically released oligosaccharides from large-scale glycoprotein deglycosylation reactions is the time-consuming chromatography, desalting, and concentration steps required to prepare a glycan fraction of manageable proportions. To overcome these time and preparative chromatography equipment requirements, we have developed a rapid organic solvent precipitation/extraction procedure that allows sequential isolation of endo-beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase H (EC 3.2.1.96)-released high-mannose and hybrid, peptide-N(4)-(N-acetyl-beta-glucosaminyl) Asn amidase (EC 3.5.1. 52)-released complex, and beta-eliminated O-linked glycans without the need for intermediate chromatography, desalting, or concentration steps. The method involves precipitation of protein and released glycans at -20 degrees C in 80% acetone and extraction of the glycans from the pellet with 60% aqueous methanol after each deglycosylation step. Three pools of essentially salt- and detergent-free oligosaccharides (high-mannose/hybrid, complex, and O-linked) can be isolated in a high yield in 4 days with this protocol, which has been extensively tested using bovine RNase B, human bile salt-stimulated lipase expressed in Pichia pastoris, hen ovalbumin, bovine fetuin, bovine thyroglobulin, and several invertase preparations from wild-type and mutant yeast strains.
