Structure and functional impact of glycosaminoglycan modification of HSulf-2 endosulfatase revealed by atomic force microscopy and mass spectrometry. Sci Rep 2023; 13:22263. [PMID: 38097644 PMCID: PMC10721642 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-023-49147-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/17/2023] [Accepted: 12/05/2023] [Indexed: 12/17/2023] Open
Abstract
The human sulfatase HSulf-2 is one of only two known endosulfatases that play a decisive role in modulating the binding properties of heparan sulfate proteoglycans on the cell surface and in the extracellular matrix. Recently, HSulf-2 was shown to exhibit an unusual post-translational modification consisting of a sulfated glycosaminoglycan chain. This study describes the structural characterization of this glycosaminoglycan (GAG) and provides new data on its impact on the catalytic properties of HSulf-2. The unrevealed nature of this GAG chain is identified as a chondroitin/dermatan sulfate (CS/DS) mixed chain, as shown by mass spectrometry combined with NMR analysis. It consists primarily of 6-O and 4-O monosulfated disaccharide units, with a slight predominance of the 4-O-sulfation. Using atomic force microscopy, we show that this unique post-translational modification dramatically impacts the enzyme hydrodynamic volume. We identified human hyaluronidase-4 as a secreted hydrolase that can digest HSulf-2 GAG chain. We also showed that HSulf-2 is able to efficiently 6-O-desulfate antithrombin III binding pentasaccharide motif, and that this activity was enhanced upon removal of the GAG chain. Finally, we identified five N-glycosylation sites on the protein and showed that, although required, reduced N-glycosylation profiles were sufficient to sustain HSulf-2 integrity.

Miniaturized affinity chromatography: A powerful technique for the isolation of high affinity GAGs sequences prior to their identification by MALDI-TOF MS. Anal Chim Acta 2023; 1277:341656.

Abstract
Glycosaminoglycans (GAGS) are involved in many biological processes through interactions with a variety of proteins, including proteases, growth factors, cytokines, chemokines and adhesion molecules. Identifying druggable GAG-protein interactions for therapeutic purposes is a challenge for the analytical community. In this context, this work investigates the use of a new miniaturized monolithic affinity column (poly(GMA-co-MBA) grafted with antithrombin III (AT III)) to specifically capture and elute high affinity sequences contained in low molecular weight heparin (enoxaparin) for further on-line characterization. This miniaturized, high binding capacity affinity column allows the specific capture of high-affinity oligosaccharide chains from Enoxaparin, even at low concentrations and with a minimal consumption of AT III. In addition to purification, this elution process enables preconcentration for direct analysis by capillary zone electrophoresis. It was found that many of oligosaccharide chains in enoxaparin were eliminated and that certain chain sequences were retained and enriched. Direct coupling with MALDI-TOF MS was successfully used to further characterize the specifically retained oligosaccharides where nano-ESI-TOF MS failed. After optimization of the sample preparation and ionization parameters, direct on-line analysis was performed by applying the elution volume released from the miniaturized affinity column (≤1 μL) directly to the MALDI plate. Finally, this original miniaturized analytical workflow coupling miniaturized AT III-affinity chromatography to MALDI-TOF MS detection is able to select, enrich and detect and identify high affinity sequences (mainly DP4 in size length with a high degree of sulfation) from low molecular weight heparin samples. A more specific selection of GAG sequences can be achieved by increasing the ionic strength during the washing step of affinity chromatography. This is consistent with the known binding pattern between heparin and AT III.

Abstract
This review is the tenth update of the original article published in 1999 on the application of matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (MALDI) mass spectrometry to the analysis of carbohydrates and glycoconjugates and brings coverage of the literature to the end of 2018. Also included are papers that describe methods appropriate to glycan and glycoprotein analysis by MALDI, such as sample preparation techniques, even though the ionization method is not MALDI. Topics covered in the first part of the review include general aspects such as theory of the MALDI process, new methods, matrices, derivatization, MALDI imaging, fragmentation and the use of arrays. The second part of the review is devoted to applications to various structural types such as oligo- and poly-saccharides, glycoproteins, glycolipids, glycosides, and biopharmaceuticals. Most of the applications are presented in tabular form. The third part of the review covers medical and industrial applications of the technique, studies of enzyme reactions, and applications to chemical synthesis. The reported work shows increasing use of combined new techniques such as ion mobility and highlights the impact that MALDI imaging is having across a range of diciplines. MALDI is still an ideal technique for carbohydrate analysis and advancements in the technique and the range of applications continue steady progress.

Abstract
Stem cells maintain a subtle balance between self-renewal and differentiation under the regulatory network supported by both intracellular and extracellular components. Proteoglycans are large glycoproteins present abundantly on the cell surface and in the extracellular matrix where they play pivotal roles in facilitating signaling transduction and maintaining stem cell homeostasis. In this review, we outline distinct proteoglycans profiles and their functions in the regulation of stem cell homeostasis, as well as recent progress and prospects of utilizing proteoglycans/glycosaminoglycans as a novel glycomics carrier or bio-active molecules in bone regeneration.

Abstract
Glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) are heterogeneous, negatively charged, macromolecules that are found in animal tissues. Based on the form of component sugar, GAGs have been categorized into four different families: heparin/heparan sulfate, chondroitin/dermatan sulfate, keratan sulfate, and hyaluronan. GAGs engage in biological pathway regulation through their interaction with protein ligands. Detailed structural information on GAG chains is required to further understanding of GAG-ligand interactions. However, polysaccharide sequencing has lagged behind protein and DNA sequencing due to the non-template-driven biosynthesis of glycans. In this review, we summarize recent progress in the analysis of GAG chains, specifically focusing on techniques related to mass spectroscopy (MS), including separation techniques coupled to MS, tandem MS, and bioinformatics software for MS spectrum interpretation. Progress in the use of other structural analysis tools, such as nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and hyphenated techniques, is included to provide a comprehensive perspective.

Investigation of action pattern of a novel chondroitin sulfate/dermatan sulfate 4-O-endosulfatase. Biochem J 2021; 478:281-298.

Abstract
Recently, a novel CS/DS 4-O-endosulfatase was identified from a marine bacterium and its catalytic mechanism was investigated further (Wang, W., et. al (2015) J. Biol. Chem.290, 7823-7832; Wang, S., et. al (2019) Front. Microbiol.10, 1309). In the study herein, we provide new insight about the structural characteristics of the substrate which determine the activity of this enzyme. The substrate specificities of the 4-O-endosulfatase were probed by using libraries of structure-defined CS/DS oligosaccharides issued from synthetic and enzymatic sources. We found that this 4-O-endosulfatase effectively remove the 4-O-sulfate of disaccharide sequences GlcUAβ1-3GalNAc(4S) or GlcUAβ1-3GalNAc(4S,6S) in all tested hexasaccharides. The sulfated GalNac residue is resistant to the enzyme when adjacent uronic residues are sulfated as shown by the lack of enzymatic desulfation of GlcUAβ1-3GalNAc(4S) connected to a disaccharide GlcUA(2S)β1-3GalNAc(6S) in an octasaccharide. The 3-O-sulfation of GlcUA was also shown to hinder the action of this enzyme. The 4-O-endosulfatase exhibited an oriented action from the reducing to the non-reducing whatever the saturation or not of the non-reducing end. Finally, the activity of the 4-O-endosulfatase decreases with the increase in substrate size. With the deeper understanding of this novel 4-O-endosulfatase, such chondroitin sulfate (CS)/dermatan sulfate (DS) sulfatase is a useful tool for exploring the structure-function relationship of CS/DS.

Abstract
Mammalian hyaluronidases are endo-N-acetyl-D-hexosaminidases involved in the catabolism of hyaluronic acid (HA) but their role in the catabolism of chondroitin sulfate (CS) is also examined. HA and CS are glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) implicated in several physiological and pathological processes, and understanding their metabolism is of significant importance. Data have been previously reported on the degradation of CS under the action of hyaluronidase, yet a detailed structural investigation of CS depolymerization products remains necessary to improve our knowledge of the CS depolymerizyng activity of hyaluronidase. For that purpose, the fine structural characterization of CS oligosaccharides formed upon the enzymatic depolymerization of various CS sub-types by hyaluronidase has been carried out by high resolution Orbitrap mass spectrometry and extreme UV (XUV) photodissociation tandem mass spectrometry. The exact mass measurements show the formation of wide size range of even oligosaccharides upon digestion of CS-A and CS-C comprising hexa- and octa-saccharides among the main digestion products, as well as formation of small quantities of odd-numbered oligosaccharides, while no hyaluronidase activity was detected on CS-B. In addition, slight differences have been observed in the distribution of oligosaccharides in the digestion mixture of CS-A and CS-C, the contribution of longer oligosaccharides being significantly higher for CS-C. The sequence of CS oligosaccharide products determined XUV photodissociation experiments verifies the selective β(1 → 4) glycosidic bond cleavage catalyzed by mammal hyaluronidase. The ability of the mammal hyaluronidase to produce hexa- and higher oligosaccharides supports its role in the catabolism of CS anchored to membrane proteoglycans and in extra-cellular matrix.

Abstract
This review covers recent developments in glycosaminoglycan (GAG) analysis via mass spectrometry (MS). GAGs participate in a variety of biological functions, including cellular communication, wound healing, and anticoagulation, and are important targets for structural characterization. GAGs exhibit a diverse range of structural features due to the variety of O- and N-sulfation modifications and uronic acid C-5 epimerization that can occur, making their analysis a challenging target. Mass spectrometry approaches to the structure assignment of GAGs have been widely investigated, and new methodologies remain the subject of development. Advances in sample preparation, tandem MS techniques (MS/MS), online separations, and automated analysis software have advanced the field of GAG analysis. These recent developments have led to remarkable improvements in the precision and time efficiency for the structural characterization of GAGs.

Abstract
Sulfated oligosaccharides are involved in important biological events that are often modulated by specific sequences and sulfation patterns, but their structural analysis remains challenging. Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-mass spectrometry (MALDI-MS) analysis of three different sulfated oligosaccharides (Fondaparinux, the octasulfated pentasaccharide, a disulfated heparin-derived tetrasaccharide 1, and an octasulfated maltoheptaose) 2 was performed using the 2-(4-hydroxyphenylazo)benzoic acid-tetramethylguanidinium (HABA-TMG2) matrix. High resolution mass spectrometry of the main ions observed was successful, and this was complemented by tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) analysis for structural assessment. Despite sulfate losses, fully sulfated molecular ions were observed and these allowed the determination of oligosaccharide structures: UA-GlcNAc-UA(2S)-AnhMan(6S) for compound 1 and (Glc6S)6-Glc (1S,6S) for compound 2.
