The enzyme that catalyzed the conversion of human salivary alpha-amylase family A (HSA-A) to family B (HSA-B) was identified. It was partially purified from the precipitate obtained by centrifugation of human saliva at 105,000 x g for 60 min by solubilization with 3[(3-cholamidopropyl)dimethylammonio]-1-propane sulfonate and column chromatographies with Sephacryl S-300-HR and hydroxylapatite. The enzyme preparation was practically free from contaminating exoglycosidases and proteases. The enzyme cleaved the N,N'-diacetylchitobiose moiety of the sugar chain of HSA-A, as shown by the isolation of the protein moiety which contained 1 GlcNAc and 1 Fuc residue and the sugar chain (Gal)2(Fuc)1(GlcNAc)2(Man)3(GlcNAc). This enzyme also cleaved the N,N'-diacetylchitobiose moiety of the sugar chain of human transferrin tetraglycopeptide Asn-Tyr-Asn(GlcNAc)2(Man)3(GlcNAc)2(Gal)2-Lys to yield equimolar amounts of peptide Asn-Tyr-Asn(GlcNAc)Lys and sugar chain (Gal)2(GlcNAc)2(Man)3(GlcNAc). The enzyme was identified as an endo-beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase. The enzyme acted on HSA-A with desialylated and defucosylated outer chain moieties of the sugar chains at a similar rate as that of native HSA-A. The enzyme activity was reduced to 13 and 5% using HSA-A with the sugar chains whose outer chain moieties lacked Gal and GlcNAc, respectively, from the nonreducing end. The enzyme also acted on human transferrin, calf fetuin, and asparagine oligosaccharides of transferrin and fetuin. On the other hand, the enzyme did not act on ovalbumin, RNase B, Taka-amylase, yeast invertase, and ovalbumin asparagine oligosaccharides. These results indicate that human salivary endo-beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase is specific for complex type sugar chains and can release the sugar chains from native glycoproteins and glycopeptides regardless of the existence of a Fuc residue on the proximal GlcNAc of the N,N'-diacetylchitobiose core of their sugar chains. The source of the enzyme was epithelial cells peeling from the oral cavity epithelium into saliva. The enzyme was thought to be integrated on the surface of the epithelial cell membrane. This enzyme was named endo-beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase HS. Thus, these studies indicate that the properties of the enzyme are distinct from those of known endo-beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase and endo-beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase HS is a novel endo-beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase.

Processing of N-linked oligosaccharides in Saccharomyces cerevisiae begins with the removal of glucose and mannose residues from Glc3Man9GlcNAc2 to form a single isomer of Man8GlcNAc2. The importance of mannose removal for subsequent outer chain synthesis was examined in strains of S. cerevisiae disrupted in the MNS1 gene encoding a specific alpha 1,2-mannosidase responsible for Man8GlcNAc2 synthesis [Camirand, Heysen, Grondin and Herscovics (1991) J. Biol. Chem. 266, 15120-15127]. Both MNS1 transcripts of 1.85 kb and 1.7 kb were not observed in Northern blots of mns1 cells (i.e. cells containing the disrupted gene). Analysis on Bio-Gel P-6 of endo-beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase-H-sensitive oligosaccharides following a 10 min pulse with [2-3H]mannose revealed similar amounts of labelled outer chains excluded from the gel in both control and mns1 cells. H.p.l.c. of the included oligosaccharides showed that a Man9GlcNAc, rather than a Man8GlcNAc, intermediate was formed in mns1 cells. Analysis of [3H]mannose-labelled core oligosaccharides from immunoprecipitated CPY and invertase by h.p.l.c. showed a similar size distribution in mns1 and control cells. Invertase immunoprecipitated from [35S]methionine-labelled mns1 cells was highly glycosylated, but migrated slightly faster than that from control cells on denaturing PAGE, indicating a small difference in glycosylation. A similar difference in mobility was observed for invertase activity stain following non-denaturing gel electrophoresis. It is concluded that the alpha-mannosidase encoded by MNS1 is the only enzyme responsible for mannose removal in vivo, and that this processing step is not essential for outer chain synthesis.

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.

We estimated in vivo turnover rates of sucrase-isomaltase and lactase-phlorizin hydrolase in adult rats. Fed animals received a primed continuous infusion of phenylalanine (300 microCi, 150 mumol Phe/100 g of body weight for 30 s, then 7.5 microCi, 3.75 mumol Phe/min for 10 to 140 min). Sucrase-isomaltase and lactase-phlorizin hydrolase were immunoprecipitated from jejunal mucosal membranes; isoforms were separated by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Endoglycosidase H digestions and (for lactase-phlorizin hydrolase) N-terminal amino acid sequencing were performed on all isoforms. Specific radioactivity of prosucrase-isomaltase and prolactase-phlorizin hydrolase isoforms reached isotopic equilibrium by 60 and 90 min, respectively. Specific radioactivity of brush border sucrase and lactase did not reach steady state. The isotope kinetic, N-terminal amino acid sequencing, and endoglycosidase H digestion data suggested that one of the high molecular weight lactase isoforms is a dimer of mature lactase. Compartmental modeling of specific radioactivity demonstrated that mean intracellular residence time is 59 min for prosucrase-isomaltase isoforms and 68 min for prolactase-phlorizin hydrolase isoforms. Mean residence time in the brush border was 5.8 h for sucrase and 7.8 h for lactase. Fractional synthesis rates were 414%/day for sucrase and 307%/day for lactase. Thus, in vivo brush border sucrase and lactase turn over at similar rates in the adult rat.

The extent of N-glycosylation of yeast external invertase at each of the 14 potential sites was determined by the combination of proteolytic digestions and matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI/TOF-MS). The average molecular mass of the intact external invertase was determined as 97 kDa by MALDI/TOF-MS. The intact protein was digested with trypsin, Lys-C and Asp-N, followed by high-performance liquid chromatographic separation. The proteolytic digests were analyzed by MALDI/MS screening for the glycopeptides. The glycopeptides were then treated with peptide:N-glycosidase F (PNGase F) and/or endo-beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase (Endo H) and the molecular mass of the deglycosylated peptide was determined by MALDI/MS and matched with the peptide predicted by a computer program. The sequences of some peptides or deglycosylated peptides were identified by the MALDI post-source decay technique. The size of the oligosaccharide, the degree of glycosylation and the distribution of the oligosaccharides at each individual potential glycosylation site were characterized. This information goes for beyond previously published data and sometimes differs from them. During this study, the amino acid sequence originally derived from the DNA sequence of the gene coding for invertase was also verified and it was found that this protein when expressed from SUC2 gene might be created as more than one sequence which differ by a few amino acid substitutions (Asn58<-->Thr, Asn65-->His and Val412<-->Ala).

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.

N-Glycans in nearly all eukaryotes are derived by transfer of a precursor Glc(3)Man(9)GlcNAc(2) from dolichol (Dol) to consensus Asn residues in nascent proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum. The Saccharomyces cerevisiae alg (asparagine-linked glycosylation) mutants fail to synthesize oligosaccharide-lipid properly, and the alg9 mutant, accumulates Man(6)GlcNAc(2)-PP-Dol. High-field (1)H NMR and methylation analyses of Man(6)GlcNAc(2) released with peptide-N-glycosidase F from invertase secreted by Deltaalg9 yeast showed its structure to be Manalpha1,2Manalpha1,2Manalpha1, 3(Manalpha1,3Manalpha1,6)-Manbeta1,4GlcNAcbeta1, 4GlcNAcalpha/beta, confirming the addition of the alpha1,3-linked Man to Man(5)GlcNAc(2)-PP-Dol prior to the addition of the final upper-arm alpha1,6-linked Man. This Man(6)GlcNAc(2) is the endoglycosidase H-sensitive product of the Alg3p step. The Deltaalg9 Hex(7-10)GlcNAc(2) elongation intermediates were released from invertase and similarly analyzed. When compared with alg3 sec18 and wild-type core mannans, Deltaalg9 N-glycans reveal a regulatory role for the Alg3p-dependent alpha1,3-linked Man in subsequent oligosaccharide-lipid and glycoprotein glycan maturation. The presence of this Man appears to provide structural information potentiating the downstream action of the endoplasmic reticulum glucosyltransferases Alg6p, Alg8p and Alg10p, glucosidases Gls1p and Gls2p, and the Golgi Och1p outerchain alpha1,6-Man branch-initiating mannosyltransferase.

Arthrobacter protophormiae produced a high level of extracellular endo-beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase when cells were grown in a medium containing ovalbumin. The enzyme was induced by the glycopeptide fraction of ovalbumin prepared by pronase digestion. Production of the enzyme was also induced by glycoproteins such as yeast invertase and bovine ribonuclease B but not by monosaccharides such as mannose, N-acetylglucosamine, and galactose. The enzyme was purified to homogeneity as demonstrated by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and has an apparent molecular weight of about 80,000. The enzyme showed a broad optimum pH in the range of pH 5.0 to 11.0. The enzyme hydrolyzed all heterogeneous ovalbumin glycopeptides, although the hydrolysis rates for hybrid type glycopeptides were very low. The substrate specificity of A. protophormiae endo-beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase was very similar to that of Endo-C(II) from Clostridium perfringens. Therefore, the enzyme induction by A. protophormiae seems to have a close relation to the substrate specificity of the enzyme.

When 36-hour-old dark grown radish seedlings are transferred to far-red light, there is a decrease in cytoplasmic beta-fructosidase (betaF) and an increase in cell wall betaF compared to the dark controls. Cytoplasmic and cell wall-bound beta-fructosidase are both glycoproteins and exhibit high antigenic similarities, but differ according to charge heterogeneity and carbohydrate microheterogeneity. Growth of radish seedlings in the presence of tunicamycin results in a partial inhibition of betaF glycosylation but nonglycosylated betaF still accumulates in the cell wall under far-red light. Thus, glycosylation is not necessary for intracellular transport, for correct targetting, or for wall association of an active betaF. The nonglycosylated cytoplasmic and cell wall betaF forms have the same relative molecular mass but glycosylated forms have different oligosaccharide side-chains, with respect to size and susceptibility to alpha-mannosidase and endoglycosidase D digestion. The oligosaccharides of both forms are partly removed by endoglycosidase H when betaF is denatured. Isoelectric focusing analysis of betaF shows that the cell wall-associated isozymes are more basic than the cytoplasmic isozymes, and that the charge heterogeneity also exists within a single plant. A time course of changes in betaF zymograms shows a far red light stimulation of the appearance of the basic forms of the enzyme. However, the more basic cell wall specific betaF forms are not present when N-glycosylation is prevented with tunicamycin. These results indicate that cytoplasmic and cell wall betaF probably have common precursor polypeptides and basic cell wall forms arise via processing events which are tunicamycin sensitive.
