The sexuality-inducing glycoprotein of Volvox carteri f. nagariensis was purified from supernatants of disintegrated sperm packets of the male strain IPS-22 and separated by reverse-phase HPLC into several isoforms which differ in the degree of O-glycosylation. Total chemical deglycosylation with trifluoromethanesulphonic acid yields the biologically inactive core protein of 22.5 kDa. This core protein possesses three putative binding sites for N-glycans which are clustered in the middle of the polypeptide chain. The N-glycosidically bound oligosaccharides were obtained by glycopeptidase F digestion and were shown by a combination of exoglycosidase digestion, gaschromatographic sugar analysis and two-dimensional HPLC separation to possess the following definite structures: (A) Man beta 1-4GlcNAc beta 1-4GlcNAc; (B) (Man alpha)3 Man beta 1-4GlcNAc beta 1-4GlcNAc Xyl beta; (C) (Man alpha)2 Man beta 1-4GlcNAc beta 1-4GlcNAc; (D) (Man)2Xyl(GlcNAc)2. Xyl beta Two of the three N-glycosidic binding sites carry one B and one D glycan. The A and C glycans are shared by the third N-glycosylation site. The O-glycosidic sugars, which make up 50% of the total carbohydrate, are short (up to three sugar residues) chains composed of Ara, Gal and Xyl and are exclusively bound to Thr residues.

A variety of homobifunctional crosslinking agents have been used to gain insight into the nature of the murine interleukin 3 (mIL-3) receptor. When [125I]mIL-3 was cross-linked to receptor sites on the surfaces of intact B6SUtA1 cells with disuccinimidyl suberate (DSS), sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) revealed the existence of two radiolabeled species with molecular weights of 140 (p140) and 70 (p70) kd (after subtraction of [125I]mIL-3). The relative intensities of the two bands did not change when the [125I]mIL-3 concentration was varied, confirming Scatchard results which suggested only one affinity class. However, when [125I]mIL-3 was crosslinked to intact cells and then incubated at 37 degrees C, the intensity of p140 decreased relative to p70, suggesting a conversion of p140 to p70. This conversion could be inhibited by sodium azide, methylamine, and bacitracin and could also be prevented by first boiling for 1 min in 2% SDS and 5% 2-mercaptoethanol. The putative protease that carried out this apparent conversion appeared to be associated both with plasma membranes prepared from these cells and also with solubilized receptors. Moreover, when p140, crosslinked with both dithiobis succinimidylpropionate and glutaraldehyde, was purified and reelectrophoresed under reducing conditions, p70 could be generated. N-glycanase digestion of p140 and p70 revealed a similar level of N-linked carbohydrate, which upon closer study appeared to consist of two chains, a 3-kd and an 8-kd moiety. Consistent with this data, we propose that the receptor is a 140-kd glycoprotein that is cleaved to a 70-kd surface protein upon mIL-3 binding and chemical crosslinking.

In order to explore whether individual N-linked glycans in a given glycoprotein may be processed to different end products and at the same time prepare a number of well characterized glycopeptides as substrates for glycopeptide hydrolases, we have prepared the individual glycopeptides representing the four major glycosylation sites in ovomucoid and the three sites in asialofetuin. The individual glycopeptides were characterized by amino acid sequence determination before and after removal of the glycan by peptide:N-glycanase (amidase), and the liberated glycans were subjected to mass spectrometric analysis. As expected from available sugar analyses of the individual glycans in ovomucoid, no major differences were detected between the four glycosylation sites in this glycoprotein, but a definite trend toward less processed (less extensively branched) species was observed in going from site 1 to 4. In fetuin, for which the glycan pool is known to be made up of about two-thirds triantennary and one-third biantennary structures, the analysis of the three glycopeptides gave triantennary to biantennary ratios of 75/25, 67/33, and 70/30, respectively, demonstrating that the three sites are processed to a very similar, albeit perhaps not identical, extent. All the glycopeptides obtained in these studies, including the CNBr-produced glycopeptide from ovalbumin, were purified by a set series of steps, gel filtration on Sephadex G-50 followed by ion-exchange chromatography on DE52 and/or reverse phase high performance liquid chromatography. Based on the results, these procedures appear to have general application for the preparation of glycopeptides.

The detergent-soluble 125I-labeled receptor complex resulting after affinity cross-linking of 125I-heparin-binding growth factor type one (HBGF-1, m = 15.2-kDa) to HepG2 cells had an apparent molecular mass of 145-kDa, eluted from immobilized wheat germ lectin in the presence of N-acetylglucosamine, shifted to apparent mass of 128-kDa when treated with N-glycanase and shifted to apparent mass of 205-kDa after reduction, carboxymethylation and succinylation. Electrophoretic analysis of HepG2 cell membrane proteins revealed a major silver-stained protein of apparent molecular mass of 130-kDa that has correlative properties. These properties were used to purify the 130-kDa HepG2 glycoprotein to apparent homogeneity and suggest the glycoprotein as a candidate for the human HBGF receptor.

Five UDP-glucuronosyltransferases (UDPGTs) have been isolated to apparent homogeneity from rat and rabbit liver and have been characterized for their glycoprotein nature by reacting these proteins with commercially available endo- and exoglycosidases. The enzymes studied were rat hepatic p-nitrophenol, 17 beta-hydroxysteroid, and 3 alpha-hydroxysteroid UDPGTs and rabbit hepatic p-nitrophenol and estrone UDPGTs. Hydrolysis of oligosaccharide moieties was evidenced by an increase in the mobility (decreased apparent molecular weight) of the protein subunits after sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Purified rabbit hepatic estrone and p-nitrophenol UDPGTs were hydrolyzed by almond glycopeptidase A and endo-beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase H from Streptomyces plicatus (endo H), but not by endo-beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase D from Diplococus pneumoniae (endo D) suggesting that these transferases are glycoproteins of the high mannose type and not of the complex type. Likewise, purified rat hepatic 3 alpha-hydroxysteroid and p-nitrophenol UDPGTs were substrates for glycopeptidase A and endo H but not for endo D. One enzyme, 17 beta-hydroxysteroid UDPGT, was not glycosylated since it was not hydrolyzed by any of the three endoglycosidases. All four glycosylated UDPGTs could serve as substrates for jack bean alpha-mannosidase, confirming the high mannose nature of the oligosaccharide. Deglycosylation of the purified UDPGTs by endo H did not have an effect on the catalytic activities of these proteins.

The major component immunoprecipitated from human red cell membranes by murine monoclonal antibodies (BS46 and BS56) against the LW blood group antigens is a 42,000 mol. wt glycoprotein. Upon digestion by an N-glycanase the LW component migrated as a 25,000 mol. wt component on SDS gels, whereas treatment by an O-glycanase led only to a small size reduction (2000). These data suggest that the LW glycoprotein might carry approximately eight to nine N-linked sugar chains and only a few (one or two) O-linked oligosaccharide chains. A minor component of 31,000 mol. wt was also identified in the LW immunoprecipitate. Preliminary analyses by two-dimensional peptide mapping indicate that the 31,000 mol. wt polypeptide is identical to authentic Rh proteins, therefore raising the possibility that the Rh and LW antigens are associated in the membrane as a functional complex called Rh cluster. Since the N-deglycosylated form of the LW and RhD proteins have different sizes (25,000 vs 31,000-32,000 respectively) and since their externally 125I-labelled domains have different two-dimensional peptide maps, it is concluded that LW is probably not a simple glycosylated form of the Rh proteins.

The secretion of tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA) from melanoma cells (Bowes) was investigated with or without monensin treatment. Monensin inhibited secretion of t-PA from the cells to the medium in a dose-and time-dependent manner. The inhibition was accompanied by an intracellular accumulation of t-PA. Electrophoretic enzymography of the cell homogenate showed the main lytic zone at 72 kDa, which reacted with the IgG of anti-t-PA. Analysis of the cell organelles using ultracentrifugation with a discontinuous sucrose density gradient revealed that the activity and the antigen of t-PA were observed near the discontinuous phase of the sucrose gradient. Analysis of 3H-mannose- and 35S-methionine-labeled t-PA in the cell organelles revealed that the radioactivity of each was increased by monensin treatment, and that such treatment increased the ratio of 3H-mannose-related glycoprotein to 35S-methionine-related protein. The sugar chain of intracellular t-PA was analyzed with endoglycosidase H and N-glycanase, which reduced the molecular weight of t-PA by 4.5-10 kDa, indicating the intracellular presence of a high-mannose type sugar chain and a complex-type sugar chain of t-PA. t-PA secreted from the monensin-treated cells possesses a high-mannose type sugar chain only. Therefore, monensin alters the secretion of t-PA by abnormal glycosylation.

1. N-glycanase, but not O-glycanase, released carbohydrates from butyrophilin of rat and cow milk lipid globule membranes. 2. 1-Deoxynojirimycin, and inhibitor of glucosidases I and II of the glycoprotein processing pathway, increased the amount or extent of glycosylation of butyrophilin in rat milk lipid globules. 3. Butyrophilin and xanthine oxidase of milk lipid globule membrane had a nearest neighbor relationship, as demonstrated through specific crosslinking of these proteins. 4. From these results it is suggested that butyrophilin has asparagine-linked oligosaccharides which bypass the processing apparatus of endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi apparatus. Butyrophilin may be responsible for anchoring xanthine oxidase to the inner (cytoplasmic) face of milk lipid globule membrane.

Dopamine D2 receptor binding subunits of the porcine anterior pituitary were visualized by autoradiography following photoaffinity labeling with [125I]N-azidophenethylspiperone and sodium dodecyl-sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The ligand binding subunit comprising the pituitary D2 dopamine receptor migrated as two distinct bands of apparent Mr approximately equal to 150,000 and 118,000, substantially higher than neuronal D2 receptor subunits from porcine or canine brain. The glycoprotein nature of pituitary D2 receptor binding subunits was investigated by the use of exo- and endo-glycosidase treatments and peptide mapping experiments. Photoaffinity labeled polypeptides of the anterior pituitary were susceptible to both neuraminidase and alpha-mannosidase digestion as indexed by their increased electrophoretic mobility on sodium dodecyl-sulfate polyacrylamide gels, and suggests the presence of both complex type and terminal mannose carbohydrate residues. Moreover, the additive effects of sequential treatment with these enzymes suggests that both types of carbohydrate chains are present on each receptor peptide. N-linked deglycosylation of pituitary D2 photolabeled receptors with glycopeptidase-F produced a further increase in the mobility of the labeled protein to apparent Mr approximately equal to 44,000, similar to that of deglycosylated D2 binding subunits of porcine and canine brain. Peptide mapping experiments following limited proteolysis with Staphylococcus aureus V8 proteinase and papain demonstrated that deglycosylated D2 dopamine receptors (Mr = 44,000), in different tissues and species, were homologous. Taken together, these data suggest that despite the differences in the overall molecular weight and tissue specific glycosylation pattern of pituitary D2 dopamine receptors, the primary structure of mammalian D2 receptors appears to be conserved.

Limited tryptic digestion of fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC)-labeled (H+-K+)-ATPase from rat resting light gastric membranes produced a soluble 27-kDa polypeptide which retained the fluorescence of the parent enzyme. Its production was markedly enhanced in the presence of an amphiphilic detergent, Zwittergent 3-14, which potently inhibits the ATPase activity. This increase is probably due to protection of certain tryptic cleavage sites through conformational changes of the membrane enzyme by the detergent. The NH2-terminal sequence of the 27-kDa polypeptide corresponded exactly to that beginning at Asn-369 of the cDNA-deduced primary structure of the rat ATPase. The presence of the phosphorylation site, Asp-385, and FITC-labeled Lys-517, which is known to be a part of the ATP-binding site, indicates that the 27-kDa polypeptide contains a major cytoplasmic portion of (H+-K+)-ATPase. Interestingly, the polypeptide was stained with periodate-Schiff's base, indicating its glycoprotein nature. The carbohydrate group attached to the polypeptide seems to include at least an N-linked high-mannose moiety, since the polypeptide showed Con A binding activity as detected with a Con A-biotin/avidin-peroxidase assay on nitrocellulose transblots. Also, its Con A binding activity was inhibited by excess methyl alpha-D-mannopyranoside and disappeared upon treatment of the polypeptide with endoglycosidase H and N-glycanase. Further tryptic action converted the 27-kDa polypeptide to 2 smaller FITC-labeled polypeptides of 25 and 15 kDa, which lost 18 and 96 amino acid residues, respectively, from the NH2 terminus of the parent polypeptide.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
