A bacterial sulfoglycosidase highlights mucin O-glycan breakdown in the gut ecosystem. Nat Chem Biol 2023; 19:778-789. [PMID: 36864192 DOI: 10.1038/s41589-023-01272-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 14.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/03/2022] [Accepted: 01/25/2023] [Indexed: 03/04/2023]
Abstract
Mucinolytic bacteria modulate host-microbiota symbiosis and dysbiosis through their ability to degrade mucin O-glycans. However, how and to what extent bacterial enzymes are involved in the breakdown process remains poorly understood. Here we focus on a glycoside hydrolase family 20 sulfoglycosidase (BbhII) from Bifidobacterium bifidum, which releases N-acetylglucosamine-6-sulfate from sulfated mucins. Glycomic analysis showed that, in addition to sulfatases, sulfoglycosidases are involved in mucin O-glycan breakdown in vivo and that the released N-acetylglucosamine-6-sulfate potentially affects gut microbial metabolism, both of which were also supported by a metagenomic data mining analysis. Enzymatic and structural analysis of BbhII reveals the architecture underlying its specificity and the presence of a GlcNAc-6S-specific carbohydrate-binding module (CBM) 32 with a distinct sugar recognition mode that B. bifidum takes advantage of to degrade mucin O-glycans. Comparative analysis of the genomes of prominent mucinolytic bacteria also highlights a CBM-dependent O-glycan breakdown strategy used by B. bifidum.

Sulfated fuco-manno-glucuronogalactan alleviates pancreatic beta cell senescence via PI3K/AKT/FoxO1 pathway. Int J Biol Macromol 2023; 236:123846. [PMID: 36863675 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.123846] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/02/2022] [Revised: 02/19/2023] [Accepted: 02/22/2023] [Indexed: 03/04/2023]
Abstract
Appearance of senescent beta cells in the pancreas leads to the onset of type 2 diabetes (T2D). The structural analysis of a sulfated fuco-manno-glucuronogalactan (SFGG) indicated SFGG had the backbones of interspersing 1, 3-linked β-D-GlcpA residues, 1, 4-linked α-D-Galp residues, and alternating 1, 2-linked α-D-Manp residues and 1, 4-linked β-D-GlcpA residues, sulfated at C6 of Man residues, C2/C3/C4 of Fuc residues and C3/C6 of Gal residues, and branched at C3 of Man residues. SFGG effectively alleviated senescence-related phenotypes in vitro and in vivo, including cell cycle, senescence-associated β-galactosidase, DNA damage and senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP) -associated cytokines and hall markers of senescence. SFGG also alleviated beta cell dysfunction in insulin synthesis and glucose-stimulated insulin secretion. Mechanistically, SFGG attenuated senescence and improved beta cell function via PI3K/AKT/FoxO1 signaling pathway. Therefore, SFGG could be used for beta cell senescence treatment and alleviation of the progression of T2D.

Abstract
The sulfated polysaccharides from cystocarpic plants of Mazzaella parksii were studied. Fractionation at a given KCl concentration allowed us to assume, and stepwise fractionation to prove, that these polysaccharides consisted of several carrageenans that differed in structure and molecular weight. As a result of stepwise fractionation with KCl, nine gelling (1-9) and one non-gelling (10) fractions were obtained. Using IR spectroscopy, it was shown that fractions 3, 4 and 5 were kappa/iota-, kappa- and kappa/beta-carrageenans, respectively. The structures of the main fractions 1, 2, 9 and 10 were investigated in more detail by methylation, NMR spectroscopy and mass spectrometry. Fractions 1 and 2 were hybrid kappa/iota-carrageenans with kappa:iota ratio 79:21 and 63:37, respectively. At the same time, fraction 9 contained kappa-, iota- and small amounts of nu-carrageenans. The fraction 10 had complex structure and was built from kappa-, iota-, beta-, mu- and nu-carrageenans and included agar-like structure, which explained the inability of this fraction to gel at 15 % KCl. It was shown that isolated polysaccharides activated the classical pathway of complement system, increasing the concentration of C1 inhibitor of serine protease by 50 % compared with the negative control.

Abstract
Today, marine natural products are considered one of the main sources of compounds for drug development. Starfish and sea cucumbers are potential sources of natural products of pharmaceutical interest. Among their metabolites, polar steroids, triterpene glycosides, and polar lipids have attracted a great deal of attention; however, studying these compounds by conventional methods is challenging. The application of modern MS-based approaches can help to obtain valuable information about such compounds. This review provides an up-to-date overview of MS-based applications for starfish and sea cucumber bioactive compounds analysis. While describing most characteristic features of MS-based approaches in the context of starfish and sea cucumber metabolites, including sample preparation and MS analysis steps, the present paper mainly focuses on the application of MS-based metabolic profiling of polar steroid compounds, triterpene glycosides, and lipids. The application of MS in metabolomics studies is also outlined.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to establish the fine structure of fucoidan from Sargassum oligocystum and to study the radiosensitizing effect of fucoidans from three algae of genus Sargassum (S. oligocystum, S. duplicatum, and S. feldmannii) with different structures. The fucoidan SoF2 from S. oligocystum was sulfated (32%) galactofucan (Fuc:Gal = 2:1), with a Mw of 183 kDa (Mw/Mn = 2.0). Its supposed structure was found to be predominantly 1,3-linked fucose as the main chain, with branching points at C2 and C4. The branches could be single galactose and/or fucose short chains with terminal galactose residues. Sulfate groups were found at positions C3, C2, and/or C4 of fucose residues and at C2 and/or C4 of galactose residues. The radiosensitizing effect of galactofucans from S. oligocystum, S. duplicatum, and S. feldmannii against human melanoma SK-MEL-28, colon HT-29, and breast MDA-MB-231 cancer cells was investigated. The influence of all investigated polysaccharides treatments with/without X-ray radiation on colony formation of human melanoma cells SK-MEL-28 was weak. Fucoidan from S. feldmannii has been shown to be the most promising radiosensitizing compound against human colon HT-29 and breast MDA-MB-231 cancer cells.

Abstract
Polysaccharide fractions of alginate, laminarans and fucoidans were obtained from the brown alga Tauya basicrassa. Yields of alginate and laminarans were large (19.7 % and 5.62 %, respectively), whereas the content of fucoidans (0.52 %) was not significant. Alginate and laminarans had typical structures for those substances. Fucoidans were low- and medium-sulfated heterogeneous polysaccharides. The fucoidan fraction 1TbF1 was sulfated fucogalactan containing a backbone from 1,6-linked residues of β-d-galactopyranose with branches at C3 and C4, terminal fucose and galactose residues and fragments from 1,3-; 1,4-; and 1,2-fucose residues. Sulfate groups were found at positions 2 and 4 of fucose, and positions 2, 3 and 4 of galactose residues. Laminaran 2TbL was subjected to a sulfation to obtain the derivative 2TbLS with partial sulfation (46 %) at C2, C4 and C6. It was shown that 2TbL and 2TbLS inhibited colony formation of sensitize-tested colon cancer cells HT-29 and HCT-116 to X-ray radiation.

Abstract
Echinoderms are among the most primitive deuterostomes and have been used as model organisms to understand chordate biology because of their close evolutionary relationship to this phylogenetic group. However, there are almost no data available regarding the N-glycomic capacity of echinoderms, which are otherwise known to produce a diverse set of species-specific glycoconjugates, including ones heavily modified by fucose, sulfate, and sialic acid residues. To increase the knowledge of diversity of carbohydrate structures within this phylum, here we conducted an in-depth analysis of N-glycans from a brittle star (Ophiactis savignyi) as an example member of the class Ophiuroidea. To this end, we performed a multi-step N-glycan analysis by HPLC and various exoglyosidase and chemical treatments in combination with MALDI-TOF MS and MS/MS. Using this approach, we found a wealth of hybrid and complex oligosaccharide structures reminiscent of those in higher vertebrates as well as some classical invertebrate glycan structures. 70% of these N-glycans were anionic, carrying either sialic acid, sulfate, or phosphate residues. In terms of glycophylogeny, our data position the brittle star between invertebrates and vertebrates and confirm the high diversity of N-glycosylation in lower organisms.

Abstract
The sulfated polysaccharide from sterile alga Mastocarpus pacificus was investigated. Partial reductive hydrolysis and NMR spectroscopy showed that the extracted polysaccharides were only carrageenans. According to FT-IR- and NMR spectroscopy this polysaccharide was a hybrid kappa/iota-carrageenan with a predominance of kappa-type units. According to MALDI-TOFMS, oligosaccharide fragments obtained by mild acid hydrolysis had a polymerization degree of 1-9, while chains built up of galactose residues were up to 3. Tandem ESI mass spectrometry together with innovative 18O-labelling method showed that the polymer chain of the carrageenan included kappa-carrabiose, kappa-carratetraose, iota-carrabiose, hybrid kappa/iota oligosaccharide units and contained minor insertions of mu-carrageenan (the precursor of kappa-carrageenan). Parallel artificial membrane permeability assay shown that the studied carrageenan inhibited bile salts permeation through an artificial membrane imitating the gastrointestinal barrier by 50 % on average compared to negative control independent of incubation time. However, its action was less pronounced than the hindering ability of cholestyramine.

Abstract
Nanoflow liquid chromatography coupled with a captive spray ionization time-of-flight tandem mass spectrometer (nLC/CSI-QTOF-MS/MS) was used in the structural determination of polar steroid compounds of starfish Lethasterias fusca. A total of 207 compounds including 106 asterosaponins, 81 glycosides of polyhydroxysteroids, and 14 polyhydroxylated steroids were detected and characterized by MS and MS/MS. Twenty compounds among them were unambiguously identified using authentic standard compounds, isolated earlier from this and other starfish species. The other compounds were tentatively characterized by accurate mass measurement and comparing retention times and characteristic MS/MS fragmentation patterns with reference standards. Moreover, fragmentation behaviors of a series of pure standards of starfish polar steroids and polyhydroxysteroid compounds detected in L. fusca have been extensively investigated and characteristic fragmentation pathways were described and used for the characterization of unknown compounds.

Abstract
The sulfated and acetylated fucoidan fraction, containing fucose, galactose, mannose, glucose and uronic acid residues, was isolated from the brown alga Padina boryana. The structure of galactofucan part was studied after different modifications by NMR spectroscopy and mass spectrometry. It was shown that galactofucan contained the main chain of alternating 1,4-linked α-l-fucopyranose and 1,3-linked β-d-Galactopyranose. Single fucose residues were found as branches at C4 of galactose residues. Also, fucoidan contained 1,3- or 1,4-linked Fuc-Fuc and Gal-Gal fragments. The sulfate groups occupied positions C2, C3 and C4 of both fucose and galactose residues, which was shown by tandem mass spectrometry of fragments, labeled with heavy-oxygen. The anticancer effect of native and modified fucoidan fractions was studied in vitro on the colorectal carcinoma cells DLD-1 and HCT-116. All fucoidans had no cytotoxicity under 400 μg/mL and inhibited colony formation of cancer cells at concentration of 200 μg/mL.

Abstract
The laminaran SdL and fucoidan SdF were isolated from brown algae Sargassum duplicatum. SdL was 1,3;1,6-β-d-glucan (1,3:1,6=6:1) with a main chain, represented by 1,3-linked glucose residues, due to NMR spectroscopy data. Single glucose residues could form branches at C6. Unusual structure of fucoidan SdF was studied by chemical and enzymatic methods, NMR spectroscopy of desulfated and deacetylated polysaccharide and mass spectrometry of fucoidan fragments labeled with 18O. Fucoidan was sulfated (31.7%) and acetylated galactofucan (Fuc:Gal∼1:1) with a main chain of 1,4-linked alternating α-l-fucose and β-d-galactose residues. Side chains were represented by extensive (DP≥5) 1,3-linked 2,4-disulfated α-l-fucose residues with branching points at C2. Fucose residues in the main chain were sulfated at C2 and less at C3, while galactose residues were sulfated at C2, C3, and less at C4, C6. The fucoidan SdF was effective against colony formation of colon cancer cells in vitro.

Abstract
Proteins carrying sulfated glycans (i.e., sulfated glycoproteins) are known to be associated with diseases, such as cancer, cystic fibrosis, and osteoarthritis. Sulfated glycoproteins, however, have not been isolated or characterized from complex biological samples due to lack of appropriate tools for their enrichment. Here, we describe a method to identify and characterize sulfated glycoproteins that are involved in chemical modifications to control the molecular charge of the peptides. In this method, acetohydrazidation of carboxyl groups was performed to accentuate the negative charge of the sulfate group, and Girard's T modification of aspartic acid was performed to assist in protein identification by MS tagging. Using this approach, we identified and characterized the sulfated glycoproteins: Golgi membrane protein 1, insulin-like growth factor binding protein-like 1, and amyloid beta precursor-like protein 1 from H2171 cells, a small cell lung carcinoma cell line. These sulfated glycoproteins carry a complex-type N-glycan with a core fucose and 4'-O-sulfated LacdiNAc as the major glycan.

Abstract
Laminaran and three fractions of fucoidan were isolated from brown alga Alaria angusta. The laminaran AaL was characterized as a typical 1,3;1,6-β-D-glucan (ratio of bonds 1,3:1,6 = 10:1). Fucoidans AaF1 and AaF2 are sulfated heteropolysaccharides, containing fucose, galactose, mannose and xylose. The fraction AaF3 is sulfated and acetylated galactofucan with the main chain represented by a repeating unit → 3)-α-L-Fucp-(2,4-SO3(-))-(1 →. According the data of methylation analysis, AaF3 contains mainly 1,3-linked fucose, less 1,4-linked and 1,4,6-linked galactose residues. The autohydrolysis (37 °C) of fucoidan AaF3 allowed to obtain selectively 2-desulfaled polysaccharide fraction, built up of fucose only, and low molecular weight (LMW) fraction. The negative-ion tandem mass spectrometry of LMW fraction, further hydrolyzed by acid hydrolysis identified the following fragments: Gal-2-SO3(-)-(1 → 4)-Gal, Gal-4-SO3(-)-(1 → 4)-Gal, Gal-(1 → 2)-Gal-4-SO3(-), Fuc-2-SO3(-)-(1 → 4)-Gal, Gal-2-SO3(-)-(1 → 3)-Fuc-(1 → 3)-Fuc, Fuc-2-SO3(-)-(1 → 3)-Fuc-(1 → 4)-Gal. The laminaran AaL and the fucoidan AaF3 exhibited no cytotoxicity in vitro for HT 29, T-47D, and SK-MEL-28 cell lines. The AaF3 fraction suppressed colony formation of HT 29 and T-47D cells, AaL-only HT 29 cells.

Abstract
A sulfated galactofucan SgF (MW 123kDa) was purified from the brown alga Saccharina gurjanovae. Polysaccharide was depolymerized by autohydrolysis at 25 and 60°C, and products were studied by mass spectrometry and (13)C NMR spectroscopy. According to results of investigation, the main chain of this polysaccharide is built of a repeating units →3)-α-L-Fucp-(2,4-OSO3(-))-(1→. Fucose chains could be sometimes terminated by (1→3)-linked galactose residues. Shorter (1→4)- and/or (1→6)-linked sulfated galactose chains are attached at positions C-2, C-3 of fucose residues. Sulfate groups can occupy positions C-2 and/or sometimes C-3 of Gal residues, but a sulfation at C-4 of the galactofucan could not be excluded. The SgF-AH25-H preparation (71kDa) was obtained by autohydrolysis of SgF at 25°C, which leaded to a selective desulfation at C-2 and, probably, to a cleavage of galactose chains, since structure of SgF-AH25-H represented a repeating unit →3)-α-l-Fucp-(4-OSO3(-))-(1→, which was definitely established by (13)C NMR spectroscopy. Galactofucan SgF and its derivative SgF-AH25-H exhibited no cytotoxic activity and leaded to about the same colony formation inhibition in colon cancer DLD-1 cells. Hence, structural simplification of SgF by lowering its molecular weight, desulfation at C-2 and removing of galactose residues by autohydrolysis at 25°C did not decrease its anticancer activity. This procedure allows obtaining standardized products which can be used as medical.

Abstract
The application of mass spectrometry towards the structural analysis of the most interesting sulfated biopolymers of the brown algae-fucoidans only developed relatively recently. During method development, many problems, both chemical and instrumental, have to be solved. For example, mass spectrometry has a limitation in the analysis of anionic high molecular weight (HMW) polysaccharides because of the labile nature of sulfate groups which cause the polysaccharide to desulfate rather than ionize. Thus, decomposition methods should be developed taking into account the structural features of such a complex and fragile compound. The selection of optimal instrument settings for the electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESIMS) and of matrix media for matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (MALDIMS) is also required. When optimal parameters for mass spectrometric analyses are found, the application of these methods to the elucidation of structural features of fucoidans (by studying their fragments) allows researchers to rapidly obtain new and unique data, often impossible to achieve by other techniques. Herein, we describe tandem mass spectrometry of sulfated fucooligosaccharides, obtained by an autohydrolysis technique from structurally different fucoidans.

Abstract
The novel highly sulfated (35%) fucoidan fraction Cf2 , which contained, along with fucose, galactose and traces of xylose and uronic acids was purified from the brown alga Coccophora langsdorfii. Its structural features were predominantly determined (in comparison with fragments of known structure) by a rapid mass spectrometric investigation of the low-molecular-weight fragments, obtained by "mild" (5 mg/mL) and "exhaustive" (maximal concentration) autohydrolysis. Tandem matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectra (MALDI-TOF/TOFMS) of fucooligosaccharides with even degree of polymerization (DP), obtained by "mild" autohydrolysis, were the same as that observed for fucoidan from Fucus evanescens, which have a backbone of alternating (1 → 3)- and (1 → 4) linked sulfated at C-2 and sometimes at C-4 of 3-linked α -L-Fucp residues. Fragmentation patterns of oligosaccharides with odd DP indicated sulfation at C-2 and at C-4 of (1 → 3) linked α -L-Fucp residues on the reducing terminus. Minor sulfation at C-3 was also suggested. The "exhaustive" autohydrolysis allowed us to observe the "mixed" oligosaccharides, built up of fucose/xylose and fucose/galactose. Xylose residues were found to occupy both the reducing and nonreducing termini of FucXyl disaccharides. Nonreducing galactose residues as part of GalFuc disaccharides were found to be linked, possibly, by 2-type of linkage to fucose residues and were found to be sulfated, most likely, at position C-2.

Abstract
Three different fucoidan fractions were isolated and purified from the brown alga, Sargassum mcclurei. The SmF1 and SmF2 fucoidans are sulfated heteropolysaccharides that contain fucose, galactose, mannose, xylose and glucose. The SmF3 fucoidan is highly sulfated (35%) galactofucan, and the main chain of the polysaccharide contains a →3)-α-L-Fucp(2,4SO₃⁻)-(1→3)-α-L-Fucp(2,4SO₃⁻)-(1→ motif with 1,4-linked 3-sulfated α-L-Fucp inserts and 6-linked galactose on reducing end. Possible branching points include the 1,2,6- or 1,3,6-linked galactose and/or 1,3,4-linked fucose residues that could be glycosylated with terminal β-D-Galp residues or chains of alternating sulfated 1,3-linked α-L-Fucp and 1,4-linked β-D-Galp residues, which have been identified in galactofucans for the first time. Both α-L-Fucp and β-D-Galp residues are sulfated at C-2 and/or C-4 (and some C-6 of β-D-Galp) and potentially the C-3 of terminal β-D-Galp, 1,4-linked β-D-Galp and 1,4-linked α-L-Fucp residues. All fucoidans fractions were less cytotoxic and displayed colony formation inhibition in colon cancer DLD-1 cells. Therefore, these fucoidan fractions are potential antitumor agents.

Abstract
Four fucoidan fractions from brown alga Costaria costata, collected at different life-stages: vegetative, May (5F2 and 5F3) and generative, July (7F1 and 7F2) collections were characterized. It was found that seaweed synthesizes different set of fucoidans - one with high fucose content and substantial percentage of hexoses and uronic acid and lower sulfate content (7F1, 5F2 and 5F3) and other - highly sulfated galactofucan (7F2). Structural features of fractions 7F2 and 5F3 were predominantly determined by mass spectrometric analysis of low-molecular-weight (LMW) oligosaccharide fragments, obtained by autohydrolysis of 7F2 and mild acid hydrolysis of 5F3 fucoidans. It was found that oligosaccharides from 7F2 fractions were mainly built up of sulfated at C-2 and/or at C-2/C-4 (1→3)-linked α-l-fucopyranose residues. d-Galactose residues, sulfated either at C-2 or C-6, were found as parts of mixed di- and trisaccharides at both termini and, probably, internal. Fucose residues in 5F3 fucoidan fragments were sulfated at C-2 and sometimes at C-4. Galactose residues were sulfated at C-4 and less frequently at C-2. Resistant to hydrolysis fraction was probably a core, built up with fucose, mannose and glucuronic acid. Presumably, oligosaccharide fragments were branches at C-4 of GlcA. They were sulfated at C-2 and sometimes at C-4 (1→3)- and/or (1→4)-linked fucooligosaccharides (sometimes terminated with (1→3)-linked galactose) and sulfated at C-4 or C-2 (1→4)- or, probably, (1→6)-linked galactooligosaccharides, probably, with own branches, formed by (1→2)-linked galactose residues. Unsulfated xylose residues were probably terminal in chains built up of fucose. It was confirmed, that monosaccharide content and structure of fucoidans of vegetative algae changed following its life stage. Generative alga in general produced highly sulfated galactofucan having lower MW along with less sulfated mannoglucuronofucan with higher MW, which was extensively synthesized by vegetative algae.

Abstract
Water-soluble polysaccharide fractions were extracted from the brown alga Laminaria cichorioides. Samples were collected monthly from May to October in Troitsa Bay (Japan Sea, Russia). Analysis showed that the content and monosaccharide composition of the fractions changed with the collection season. Fucoidan was isolated and purified from the most fucose-rich fraction, collected in July, and subjected to autohydrolysis to obtain fucooligosaccharides, suitable for mass-spectrometric analysis. Both ESIMS and MALDI-TOFMS analyses show that multisulfated (up to 3) fucooligosaccharides with polymerization degree n from 2 to 5, including mono- and disulfated-fucose residues, were the major products of autohydrolysis. The structural features of the fucooligosaccharides and their alditol derivatives were elucidated by tandem MALDI-TOFMS and ESIMS. The results obtained allowed us to conclude that fragments of the fucoidan, collected in July, were predominantly linked with a (1→3)-type of linkage and that sulfate groups occupied mostly C-2 or C-2/C-4 of the α-l-fucose residues.

Abstract
The affinity of estradiol derivatives for the estrogen receptor (ER) depends strongly on nature and stereochemistry of substituents in C(11) position of the 17beta-estradiol (I). In this work, the stereochemistry effects of the 11alpha-OH-17beta-estradiol (III(alpha)) and 11beta-OH-17beta-estradiol (III(beta)) were investigated using CID experiments and gas-phase acidity (DeltaH degrees (acid)) determination. The CID experiments showed that the steroids decompose via different pathways involving competitive dissociations with rate constants depending upon the alpha/beta C(11) stereochemistry. It was shown that the fragmentations of both deprotonated [III(alpha)-H]- and [III(beta)-H]- epimers were initiated by the deprotonation of the most acidic site, i.e. the phenolic hydroxyl at C(3). This view was confirmed by H/D exchange and double resonance experiments. Furthermore, the DeltaH degrees (acid) of both epimers (III(alpha) and III(beta)), 17beta-estradiol (I), and 17-desoxyestradiol (II) was determined using the extended Cooks' kinetic method. The resulting values allowed us to classify steroids as a function of their gas-phase acidity as follows: (III(beta)) >> (II) > (I) > (III(alpha)). Interestingly, the alpha/beta C(11) stereochemistry appeared to influence strongly the gas-phase acidity. This phenomenon could be explained through stereospecific proton interaction with pi-orbital cloud of A ring, which was confirmed by theoretical calculation.

Abstract
A fucoidan, a heterogeneous sulfated polysaccharide from the brown alga Fucus evanescens, was depolymerized under solvolytic conditions, and its ethanol-extracted low-molecular-weight fraction was analyzed by MALDI-TOFMS and ESIMS/MS. It was found that the mixture contained unsulfated oligosaccharides including some monosulfated components, which were shown to consist of mainly (1-->3)-linked 2-O-sulfonated fucose residues (from 1 to 4). Minor components of the mixture were shown to contain 2-O- and 4-O-sulfonated xylose and galactose residues. Among them, mixed monosulfonated fucooligosaccharides were detected and characterized: Xyl-(1-->4)-Fuc, Gal-(1-->4)-Fuc, Gal-(1-->4)-Gal-(1-->4)-Fuc, Gal-(1-->4)-Gal. Fucose, galactose, and xylose residues were shown to be mainly 2-O-sulfonated with traces of 4-O-sulfonation. Glucuronic acid was also found as a part of non-sulfated fucooligosaccharides: Fuc-(1-->3)-GlcA, Fuc-(1-->4)-Fuc-(1-->3)-GlcA, Fuc-(1-->3)-Fuc-(1-->4)-Fuc-(1-->3)-GlcA.

Abstract
Sulfated epitopes of alpha-glucosamine (GlcN sulfoforms) were prepared by solid-phase synthesis as models of internal glucosamines within heparan sulfate. An orthogonally protected 2'-hydroxyethyl GlcN derivative was immobilized on a trityl resin support and subjected to regioselective deprotection and sulfonation conditions, which were optimized with the aid of on-resin infrared or Raman analysis. The sulfoforms were cleaved from the resin under mild Lewis acid conditions without affecting the O- or N-sulfate groups and purified by reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The alpha-GlcN sulfoforms and their 4- O-benzyl ethers were examined by electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry (ESI-MS/MS), with product ion spectra produced by collision-induced dissociation (CID). ESI-MS/MS revealed significant differences in parent ion stabilities and fragmentation rates as a function of sulfate position. Ion fragmentation by CID resulted in characteristic mass losses with strong correlation to the positions of both free hydroxyl groups and sulfate ions. Most of these fragmentation patterns are consonant with elimination pathways, and suggest possible strategies for elucidating the structures of glucosamine-derived sulfoforms with identical m/ z ratios. In particular, fragmentation analysis can easily distinguish GlcN sulfoforms bearing the relatively rare 3- O-sulfate from isomers with the more common 6- O-sulfate.

Abstract
To establish a universal protocol for sequencing keratan sulfate (KS) using mass spectrometry (MS), systematic electrospray ionization-MSn fragmentation experiments were carried out for 10 KS-related oligosaccharides of defined structure. Under the experimental conditions employed, fully charged molecular-related ions were observed as dominant peaks in all MS(1) spectra, which clearly reflected the number of sulfates and sialic acids in the oligosaccharide structures. In the subsequent MS2, almost all of the oligosaccharides gave fragment ions corresponding to their dehydrated molecular-related ions as well as (0,2)A(r) scission ions (according to the nomenclature developed by Domon and Costello, where "r" represents the reducing end in this study). Further fragmentation of the (0,2)A(r) ions in MS3 predominantly yielded the corresponding (2,4)A(r) ions. Finally, in MS(4), these (2,4)A(r) ions were subjected to extensive glycosidic cleavage. Hence, the MS4 data of KS oligosaccharides provided sufficient information for their sequence determination. In addition, some important features of MSn fragmentation became evident. These findings should lead to the establishment of consensus rules applied for KS oligosaccharides, including those previously unidentified, and also accelerate functional studies on KS, i.e., KS-related glycosaminoglycomics.

Abstract
Tandem mass spectra of ammonium adducts of monosaccharides gave characteristic fragmentation patterns involving elimination of NH3/H2O followed by multiple eliminations of H2O and cross ring cleavages. Tandem mass spectra were examined over a range of collision energies (1-20 eV) on a triple-quadrupole mass spectrometer. The breakdown behavior of the ammonium adducts revealed patterns that could differentiate diastereomers of monosaccharides.

Abstract
Alpha-L-fucose, the monosaccharide component of fucoidan, is found in the polysaccharide mainly as its sulfated form where sulfate groups are in position 2 and/or 4 and/or 3. The correlation between biological activities and structure of fucoidan requires the determination of the sulfation pattern of the fucose residues. Therefore, it is of importance to discriminate between the isobaric sulfated fucose isomers. For this purpose, the three isomers 2-O-, 3-O-, and 4-O-sulfated fucose have been analyzed using electrospray ion trap mass spectrometry and capillary electrophoresis. The results reported herein show that it is possible to differentiate between these three positional isomers of sulfated fucose based on their fragmentation pattern upon MS/MS experiments. 3-O-Sulfated fucose was characterized by the loss of the hydrogenosulfate anion HSO4- as the main fragmentation product, while the two other isomers 2-O-, and 4-O-sulfated fucose exhibited cross-ring fragmentation yielding to distinctive (0,2)X and (0,2)A daughter ion, respectively. A computational study of the conformation of the sulfated fucose isomers was carried out providing an understanding of the fragmentation pattern with respect to the position of the sulfate group.

Abstract
Carbohydrate-protein linkage region of proteoglycans is a key oligosaccharide structure because their sulphated and/or phosphorylated analogues control the biosynthesis of glucosaminoglycans or galactosaminoglycans. Therefore, synthesised sulphated and/or phosphorylated analogues were characterised by tandem mass spectrometry in the negative-ion mode. Results demonstrated that the product ion profile was characterised by glycosidic and cross-ring cleavages depending on the position and the type of the charged group (sulphate, phosphate or carboxylate). When the above compounds were sulphated and phosphorylated, the ion found at m/z 79 was the only one that demonstrated a phosphate group on the structure. The data also suggested that when a sodium cation was present in a sulphated and phosphorylated structure, the phosphate group in most cases was neutralised by the sodium cation, and therefore cleaved off the molecule, while the sulphate group was carrying the negative charge.
