[PMID: 36422057 DOI: 10.1002/chem.202203054] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/30/2022] [Revised: 11/12/2022] [Accepted: 11/23/2022] [Indexed: 11/25/2022]
Abstract
Clickable unnatural sugars have been widely used in studying glycosylation in living systems via the metabolic glycan labelling (MGL) strategy. Partial protection of unnatural sugars by 1,6-di-O-acylation increases the labelling efficiency while avoiding the non-specific S-glyco-modification. Herein, we report the facile synthesis of a series of clickable unnatural sugars in both the unprotected and 1,6-di-O-acylated forms at the ten-gram scale. By evaluation of the labelling specificity, efficiency, and biocompatibility of various 1,6-di-O-acylated sugars for MGL in cell lines and living mice, we demonstrate that 1,6-di-O-propionylated unnatural sugars are optimal chemical reporters for glycan labelling. The synthetic routes developed in this work should facilitate the widespread use of MGL with no artificial S-glyco-modification for investigating the functional roles of glycans.

Abstract
To selectively enrich O-linked β-N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc) peptides in their original form from complex samples, we report the first reversible chemoenzymatic labeling approach for proteomic analysis. In this strategy, the O-GlcNAc moieties are ligated with long N-glycans using an Endo-M mutant, which enables the enrichment of the labeled glycopeptides by hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography (HILIC). The attached glycans on the enriched glycopeptides are removed by wild-type Endo-M/S to restore the O-GlcNAc moiety. Compared with classic chemoenzymatic labeling, this approach enables the tag-free identification, and eliminates the interference of bulky tags in glycopeptide detection. This approach presents a unique avenue for the proteome-wide analysis of protein O-GlcNAcylation to promote its mechanism research.

Abstract
氧连接氮乙酰葡萄糖胺(O-GlcNAc)是一种重要的蛋白质翻译后修饰,它在维持机体正常的生命活动中发挥着重要作用。许多研究证实,O-GlcNAc糖基化修饰稳态的破坏与人类多种疾病的发生相关,大规模富集鉴定O-GlcNAc糖基化修饰蛋白有助于发现新的临床疾病诊断标志物。由于O-GlcNAc糖基化修饰丰度较低,形成的糖苷键不稳定,O-GlcNAc糖基化修饰蛋白/肽段的富集鉴定面临一定挑战。近年来,全乙酰化的非天然糖代谢标记技术被广泛应用于O-GlcNAc糖基化修饰蛋白/肽段的富集鉴定。然而,最新的研究发现,在细胞代谢标记过程中,全乙酰化的非天然单糖会同时标记半胱氨酸的巯基而引入半胱氨酸巯基-叠氮糖人为修饰物。该副反应在一定程度上干扰了O-GlcNAc糖基化修饰蛋白/肽段的富集鉴定。鉴于此,研究发展了一种通过三甲基苯磺酰羟胺(MSH)特异性氧化消除半胱氨酸巯基-叠氮糖人为修饰物的方法,进而显著提高O-GlcNAc糖基化修饰肽段的精准鉴定。该方法建立于温和的磷酸钠缓冲液(50 mmol/L, pH=8)体系,利用过量的MSH,于95 ℃避光振荡反应30 min,可完全消除半胱氨酸巯基-叠氮糖人为修饰物。该方法应用于Hela细胞中,可有效消除叠氮全乙酰化半乳糖胺(Ac4GalNAz)代谢产生的半胱氨酸巯基-叠氮糖人为修饰物,从而成功富集鉴定到157条O-GlcNAc糖基化修饰肽段,归属于130个蛋白质。该方法有效去除了半胱氨酸巯基-叠氮糖人为修饰物对代谢标记结果的干扰,为非天然糖代谢标记技术在糖蛋白组学分析中的应用提供了新的研究策略。

Abstract
Glycosylation is a ubiquitous process that is universally conserved in nature. The various products of glycosylation, such as polysaccharides, glycoproteins, and glycolipids, perform a myriad of intra- and extracellular functions. The multitude of roles performed by these molecules is reflected in the significant diversity of glycan structures and linkages found in eukaryotes and prokaryotes. Importantly, glycosylation is highly relevant for the virulence of many bacterial pathogens. Various surface-associated glycoconjugates have been identified in bacteria that promote infectious behavior and survival in the host through motility, adhesion, molecular mimicry, and immune system manipulation. Interestingly, bacterial glycosylation systems that produce these virulence factors frequently feature rare monosaccharides and unusual glycosylation mechanisms. Owing to their marked difference from human glycosylation, bacterial glycosylation systems constitute promising antibacterial targets. With the rise of antibiotic resistance and depletion of the antibiotic pipeline, novel drug targets are urgently needed. Bacteria-specific glycosylation systems are especially promising for antivirulence therapies that do not eliminate a bacterial population, but rather alleviate its pathogenesis. In this review, we describe a selection of unique glycosylation systems in bacterial pathogens and their role in bacterial homeostasis and infection, with a focus on virulence factors. In addition, recent advances to inhibit the enzymes involved in these glycosylation systems and target the bacterial glycan structures directly will be highlighted. Together, this review provides an overview of the current status and promise for the future of using bacterial glycosylation to develop novel antibacterial strategies.

Abstract
Exosomal glycoproteins play important roles in many physiological and pathological functions. Herein, we developed a dual labeling strategy based on a protein-specific aptamer tagging and metabolic glycan labeling for visualizing glycosylation of specific proteins on exosomes. The glycosylation of exosomal PD-L1 (exoPD-L1) was imaged in situ using intramolecular fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) between fluorescent PD-L1 aptamers bound on exoPD-L1 and fluorescent tags on glycans introduced via metabolic glycan labeling. This method enables in situ visualization and biological function study of exosomal protein glycosylation. Exosomal PD-L1 glycosylation was confirmed to be required in interaction with PD-1 and participated in inhibiting of CD8+ T cell proliferation. This is an efficient and non-destructive method to study the presence and function of exosomal protein-specific glycosylation in situ, which provides a powerful tool for exosomal glycoproteomics research.

Abstract
The attachment of a single O-linked β-N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc) to serine and threonine residues of numerous proteins in the nucleus, cytoplasm, and mitochondria is a reversible post-translational modification (PTM) and plays an important role as a regulator of various cellular processes in both healthy and disease states. Advances in strategies and tools that allow for the detection of dynamic O-GlcNAcylation on cellular proteins have helped to enhance our initial and ongoing understanding of its dynamic effects on cellular stimuli and given insights into its link to the pathogenesis of several chronic diseases. Furthermore, chemical genetic strategies and related tools have been successfully applied to a myriad of biological systems with a new level of spatiotemporal and molecular precision. These strategies have started to be used in studying and controlling O-GlcNAcylation both in vivo and in vitro. In this minireview, overviews of recent advances in molecular tools being applied to the detection and identification of O-GlcNAcylation on cellular proteins as well as on individual proteins are provided. In addition, chemical genetic strategies that have already been applied or are potentially usable in O-GlcNAc functional are also discussed.

Abstract
The surging development of bioorthogonal chemistry has profoundly transformed chemical biology over the last two decades. Involving chemical partners that specifically react together in highly complex biological fluids, this branch of chemistry now allows researchers to probe biomolecules in their natural habitat through metabolic labelling technologies. Chemical reporter strategies include metabolic glycan labelling, site-specific incorporation of unnatural amino acids in proteins, and post-synthetic labelling of nucleic acids. While a majority of literature reports mark cell-surface exposed targets, implementing bioorthogonal ligations in the interior of cells constitutes a more challenging task. Owing to limiting factors such as membrane permeability of reagents, fluorescence background due to hydrophobic interactions and off-target covalent binding, and suboptimal balance between reactivity and stability of the designed molecular reporters and probes, these strategies need mindful planning to achieve success. In this review, we discuss the hurdles encountered when targeting biomolecules localized in cell organelles and give an easily accessible summary of the strategies at hand for imaging intracellular targets.

Abstract
Glycosylation events play an invaluable role in regulating cellular processes including enzymatic activity, immune recognition, protein stability, and cell-cell interactions. However, researchers have yet to realize the full range of glycan mediated biological functions due to a lack of appropriate chemical tools. Fortunately, the past 25 years has seen the emergence of modified sugar analogs, termed metabolic chemical reporters (MCRs), which are metabolized by endogenous enzymes to label complex glycan structures. Here, we review the major reporters for each class of glycosylation and highlight recent applications that have made a tremendous impact on the field of glycobiology.

Abstract
Nature uses a diverse array of protein post-translational modifications (PTMs) to regulate protein structure, activity, localization, and function. Among them, protein 4'-phosphopantetheinylation derived from coenzyme A (CoA) is an essential PTM for the biosynthesis of fatty acids, polyketides, and nonribosomal peptides in prokaryotes and eukaryotes. To explore its functions, various chemical probes mimicking the natural structure of 4'-phosphopantetheinylation have been developed. In this minireview, we summarize these chemical probes and describe their applications in direct and metabolic labeling of proteins in bacterial and mammalian cells.

Abstract
The O-linked β-N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc) modification, termed O-GlcNAcylation, is an essential and dynamic post-translational modification in cells. O-GlcNAc transferase (OGT) installs this modification on serine and threonine residues, whereas O-GlcNAcase (OGA) hydrolyzes it. O-GlcNAc modifications are found on thousands of intracellular proteins involved in diverse biological processes. Dysregulation of O-GlcNAcylation and O-GlcNAc cycling enzymes has been detected in many diseases, including cancer, diabetes, cardiovascular and neurodegenerative diseases. Here, recent advances in the development of molecular tools to investigate OGT and OGA functions and substrate recognition are discussed. New chemical approaches to study O-GlcNAc dynamics and its potential roles in the immune system are also highlighted. It is hoped that this minireview will encourage more research in these areas to advance the understanding of O-GlcNAc in biology and diseases.

Abstract
The introduction of chemical reporter groups into glycan structures through metabolic oligosaccharide engineering (MOE) followed by bio-orthogonal ligation is an important tool to study glycosylation. We show the incorporation of synthetic galactose derivatives that bear terminal alkene groups in hepatic cells, with and without infection by Plasmodium berghei parasites, the causative agent of malaria. Additionally, we demonstrated the contribution of GLUT1 to the transport of these galactose derivatives, and observed a consistent increase in the uptake of these compounds going from naïve to P. berghei-infected cells. Finally, we used MOE to study the interplay between Plasmodium parasites and their mosquito hosts, to reveal a possible transfer of galactose building blocks from the latter to the former. This strategy has the potential to provide new insights into Plasmodium glycobiology as well as for the identification and characterization of key glycan structures for further vaccine development.

Abstract
Chitin is one of the most abundant and cheaply available biopolymers in Nature. Chitin has become a valuable starting material for many biotechnological products through manipulation of its N-acetyl functionality, which can be cleaved under mild conditions using the enzyme family of de-N-acetylases. However, the chemoselective enzymatic re-acylation of glucosamine derivatives, which can introduce new stable functionalities into chitin derivatives, is much less explored. Herein we describe an acylase (CmCDA from Cyclobacterium marinum) that catalyzes the N-acylation of glycosamine with a range of carboxylic acids under physiological reaction conditions. This biocatalyst closes an important gap in allowing the conversion of chitin into complex glycosides, such as C5-modified sialosides, through the use of highly selective enzyme cascades.

Abstract
The O-linked N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc) modification is an essential component in cell regulation. A single pair of human enzymes conducts this modification dynamically on a broad variety of proteins: O-GlcNAc transferase (OGT) adds the GlcNAc residue and O-GlcNAcase (OGA) hydrolyzes it. This modification is dysregulated in many diseases, but its exact effect on particular substrates remains unclear. In addition, no apparent sequence motif has been found in the modified proteins, and the factors controlling the substrate specificity of OGT and OGA are largely unknown. In this minireview, we will discuss recent developments in chemical and biochemical methods toward addressing the challenge of OGT and OGA substrate recognition. We hope that the new concepts and knowledge from these studies will promote research in this area to advance understanding of O-GlcNAc regulation in health and disease.
