We report a novel approach for direct on-membrane glycoproteomics by digestion of membrane-blotted glycoproteins with multiple enzymes using piezoelectric chemical inkjet printing technology and on-membrane direct MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry. With this approach, both N-linked glycan analyses and peptide mass fingerprinting of several standard glycoproteins were successfully performed using PNGase F and trypsin microscale digestions of the blotted spots on membrane from an SDS-PAGE gel. In addition, we performed a similar analysis for 2-DE separated serum glycoproteins as a demonstration of how the system could be used in human plasma glycoproteomics.

Three different analytical techniques (planar SDS-PAGE, CGE-on-a-chip and MALDI-TOF-MS) applied for determination of the molecular weight of intact and partly and completely de-N-glycosylated human serum glycoproteins (antithrombin III and coagulation factor IX) have been compared. N-Glycans were removed from the protein backbone of both complex glycoproteins using PNGase F, which cleaves all types of asparagine-attached N-glycan provided the oligosaccharide has at least the length of a chitobiose core unit. Two of the applied techniques were based on gel electrophoretic separation in the liquid phase while the third technique was the gas-phase technique mass spectrometry. It was demonstrated that the enzymatic de-N-glycosylation generally worked well (completely or partially) with both glycoproteins (one containing only N-glycans and the second N- and O-glycans). All three methods were suitable for monitoring the de-N-glycosylation progress. While the molecular weights determined with MALDI-TOF-MS were most accurate, both gel electrophoretic methods provided molecular weights that were too high because of the attached glycan structures.

The membrane protein CD9P-1 is a major component of the tetraspanin web, a network of molecular interactions in the plasma membrane, in which it specifically associates with tetraspanins CD9 and CD81. The various functional effects of CD9 and CD81 may be related to their partners. Thus, we have addressed the characterization of the CD9P-1 glycosylation using stably transfected HEK-293 cells. After immunoprecipitation, CD9P-1 was subjected to enzymatic PNGase F cleavage of N-glycans, resulting in Asn to Asp conversion and increase in 1 mass unit. Thus, following protease digestion, deglycosylated peptides were selectively identified by high mass accuracy FTICR-MS, using this conversion as a signature. This has demonstrated that all nine potential N-glycosylation sites were actually engaged. On the other hand, the N-glycan structures were determined combining chemical derivatization and exoglycosidase digestions followed by MALDI-TOF MS, ESI-MS/MS, and GC-MS analysis. CD9P-1 was shown to exhibit more than 40 different N-glycans, essentially composed of complex and high mannose-type structures. Finally, 2-D PAGE and lectino-blot analyses have revealed the presence of at least 17 glycosylated isoforms of CD9P-1 at cell surface. All CD9P-1 isoforms associate with CD9 leading to additional level of complexity of this primary complex in the tetraspanin web.

In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, protein glycosylation passed two different N-linked modification pathways after the export of predominantly Man8 GlcNAc2-containing glycoproteins from ER to the Golgi. The core oligosaccharide undergoes maturation in the Golgi resulting in a Man8-13 GlcNAc2 structure. Alternatively, core structures may be hypermannosylated with up to 200 mannose residues composing of a backbone of alpha1,6-mannosyl residues with branched alpha1, 2- and alpha1,3-mannosyl side chains. Mnn1p and Och1p play an important role in this process. The null disruption of MNN1, OCH1 was replaced by the S. cerevisiae URA3, HIS3, respectively. To characterize the N-glycosylation in the mnn1 och1 mutant, mannoproteins were obtained by hot citrate buffer extraction after the mnn1 och1 cells were crumbled. The extracted mannoprotein was precipitated by ethanol, and further purified by concanavalin A-sepharose 4B. The N-oligomannose saccharides were released from mannoprotein by PNGase F digestion, and then peptides and detergents were removed by passage through ion exchange columns. For desalting, glycans were applied to porous graphitic-carbon cartridge. 2-aminopyridine pyridylaminated sugars were profiled and purified by size fractionation HPLC with Shim-pack cle-NH2 column, and result showed dominantly a single peak. MALDI TOF/MS analysis ofthis peak revealed that its molecular weight was 1796.5Da, which corresponds to the calculated mass of Man8 GlcNAc2-PA. These results indicated that disruptions of MNN1 and OCH1 eliminated the hypermannosylation of the N-linked glycans, and glycoproteins were glycosylated with a single core type glycan, Man8 GlcNAc2, in the mnn1 och1 mutant.

This study applied yolk immunoglobulins immunoaffinity separation and MALDI-TOF MS for clinical proteomics of congenital disorders of glycosylation (CDG) and secondary glycosylation disorders [galactosemia and hereditary fructose intolerance (HFI)]. Serum transferrin (Tf) and alpha1-antitrypsin (AAT) that are markers for CDG, were purified sequentially to obtain high-quality MALDI mass spectra to differentiate single glycoforms of the native intact glycoproteins. The procedure was found feasible for the investigation of protein macroheterogeneity due to glycosylation site underoccupancy then ensuing the characterization of patients with CDG group I (N-glycan assembly disorders). Following PNGase F digestion of the purified glycoprotein, the characterization of protein microheterogeneity by N-glycan MS analysis was performed in a patient with CDG group II (processing disorders). CDG-Ia patients showed a typical profile of underglycosylation where the fully glycosylated glycoforms are always the most abundant present in plasma with lesser amounts of partially and unglycosylated glycoforms in this order. Galactosemia and HFI are potentially fatal diseases, which benefit from early diagnosis and prompt therapeutic intervention. In symptomatic patients with galactosemia and in those with HFI, MALDI MS of Tf and AAT depicts a hypoglycosylation profile with a significant increase of underglycosylated glycoforms that reverses by dietary treatment, representing a clue for diagnosis and treatment monitoring.

The use of plants as production hosts for recombinant glycoproteins, which is rapidly developing, requires methods for fast and reliable analysis of plant N-linked glycans. This study describes a simple small-scale method for the preparation of N-linked glycans from soluble plant protein and analysis thereof by matrix assisted laser desorption ionisation time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS). Concentration and protease digestion of plant protein as well as deglycosylation is carried out in a single concentrator unit without the need for intermittent purification to minimize adsorptive loss and to facilitate handling. Plant protein is concentrated in a unit with a 5kDa cutoff, and after buffer exchange, pepsin (EC 3.4.23.1) digestion is carried out in the concentrator overnight to obtain peptides as substrates for deglycosylation. Deglycosylation is carried out with peptide-N-glycosidase A (PNGase A; EC 3.5.1.52) for 24h. Released N-glycans are purified using reverse-phase and cation exchange chromatography micro-columns for removal of peptides and desalting. N-Glycans are directly analyzed by MALDI-TOF MS without derivatization. The method for isolation of N-glycans is compatible with secreted proteins from cell culture supernatant as well as with soluble protein extracts from leaf tissue. As little as 5mug of plant glycoprotein is sufficient for N-glycan preparation for MALDI-TOF MS analysis using this method.

Glycosylation represents the most common of all known protein post-translational modifications. Carbohydrates can modulate the biological functions of a glycoprotein, protect a protein against hydrolysis via protease activity, and reduce or prevent aggregation of a protein. The determination of the carbohydrate structure and function in glycoproteins remains one of the most challenging tasks given to biochemists, as these molecules can exhibit complex branched structures that can differ in linkage and in the level of branching. In this review, we will present the approach followed in our laboratory for the elucidation of N- and O-glycan chains of glycoproteins. First, reduced/carboxamidomethylated glycoproteins are digested with a protease or a chemical reagent. N-Glycans are then released from the resulting peptides/glycopeptides via digestion with peptide N-glycosidase F (PNGase F). Oligosaccharides released by PNGase F are separated from peptides and glycopeptides using a C18 Sep-Pak, and their methylated derivatives are characterized by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS). O-Glycans are released by reductive elimination, which are permethylated, purified on a Sep-Pak C18 cartridge, and analyzed with MALDI-TOF-MS. Finally, to confirm the structures N-glycans released by PNGase F are characterized using MALDI-TOF-MS following on-plate sequential exoglycosidase digestions. The clean-up procedures of native and permethylated oligosaccharides for an efficient MALDI-TOF-MS analysis will also be described. This strategy was applied to calf fetuin and glycoproteins present in human serum.

The Na(+)-dependent transporters, hSVCT1 and hSVCT2, were assessed in COS-1 cells for their membrane topology. Antibodies to N- and C-termini of hSVCT1 and C-terminus of hSVCT2 identified positive immunofluorescence only after permeabilisation, suggesting these regions are intracellular. PNGase F treatment confirmed that WT hSVCT1 (approximately 70-100 kDa) is glycosylated and site-directed mutagenesis of the three putative N-glycosylation sites, Asn138, Asn144, Asn230, demonstrated that mutants N138Q and N144Q were glycosylated (approximately 68-90 kDa) with only 31-65% of WT l-ascorbic acid (AA) uptake while the glycosylation profile of N230Q remained unaltered (approximately 98% of WT activity). However, the N138Q/N144Q double mutant displayed barely detectable membrane expression at approximately 65 kDa, no apparent glycosylation and minimal AA uptake (<10%) with no discernible improvement in expression or activity when cultured at 28 degrees C or 37 degrees C. Marker protein immunocytochemistry with N138Q/N144Q identified intracellular aggregates with hSVCT1 localised at the nuclear membrane but absent at the plasma membrane thus implicating its role as a possible intracellular transporter and suggesting N-glycosylation is required for hSVCT1 membrane targeting. Also, Lys242 on the same putative hydrophilic loop as Asn230 after biotinylation was inaccessible from the extracellular side when analysed by MALDI-TOF MS. A new hSVCT1 secondary structure model supporting these findings is proposed.

Detailed structures of N-linked oligosaccharides of Defibrase, a highly active thrombin like enzyme (TLE) purified from the venom of Agkistrodon acutus, were successfully characterized using MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry in combination with sequential exoglycosidase digestion. Monosaccharide composition analysis was performed by high performance anion-exchange chromatography with pulsed amperometric detection (HPAEC-PAD). Galactose(Gal), mannose(Man), fucose(Fuc), N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc), and sialic acid (Neu5Ac) was detected and the total carbohydrate content was about 19.4% (w/w). The N-linked oligosaccharides were released by treatment with PNGase F, fluorescent labeled with 2-aminobenzamide, and fractionated by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The main oligosaccharide fractions were collected and further digested with an array of exoglycosidase mixtures, and subsequent MALDI TOF MS analysis of the resulting products yielded information about structural features of the oligosaccharide. The combined data revealed the presence of five distinct oligosaccharide structures in Defibrase, which are mainly complex or hybrid type, with a small amount of oligomannosidic type. The complex type oligosaccharides are mostly tri-or bi-antennary and the hybrid oligosaccharides are all bi-antennary. Most oligosaccharides are also found to be fucosylated.

Lactophorin is a heat-stable phosphoglycoprotein, also known as milk glycosylation-dependent cell adhesion molecule 1 (GlyCAM-1). Bovine 18 kDa lactophorin was purified by heparin affinity chromatography from cow's milk whey. Its N-glycans were obtained by proteomic techniques, including two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (2D-PAGE), followed by in-gel digestion with peptide-N(4)-(N-acetyl-beta-glucosaminyl)-asparagine amidase (PNGase F). The released N-glycans were derivatized with 2-aminopryridine (PA) and analyzed by matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization quadruple ion trap time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-QIT-TOF MS). Among the MS analyzed peaks, 15 peaks were found to be N-glycan molecules as detected by MS(2) analysis. These glycans consisted of mono-sialylated bi-, tri-, and tetra-antennary complex-type N-glycans carrying Gal-GlcNAc (LacNAc) or GalNAc-GlcNAc (LacdiNAc) with and without core-fucose.
