Abstract
Sialic acid-based glycoconjugates cover the surfaces of many different cell types, defining key properties of the cell surface such as overall charge or likely interaction partners. Because of this prominence, sialic acids play prominent roles in mediating attachment and entry to viruses belonging to many different families. In this review, we first describe how interactions between viruses and sialic acid-based glycan structures can be identified and characterized using a range of techniques. We then highlight interactions between sialic acids and virus capsid proteins in four different viruses, and discuss what these interactions have taught us about sialic acid engagement and opportunities to interfere with binding.

Abstract
α-Synuclein (α-Syn)-positive intracytoplasmic inclusions, known as Lewy bodies, are thought to be involved in the pathogenesis of Lewy body diseases, such as Parkinson's disease (PD). Although growing evidence suggests that cell-to-cell transmission of α-Syn is associated with the progression of PD and that extracellular α-Syn promotes formation of inclusion bodies, its precise mechanism of action in the extracellular space remains unclear. Here, as indicated by both conventional fractionation techniques and FRET-based protein-protein interaction analysis, we demonstrate that extracellular α-Syn causes expulsion of sphingosine 1-phosphate receptor subtype 1 (S1P1R) from the lipid raft fractions. S1P1R regulates vesicular trafficking, and its expulsion involved α-Syn binding to membrane-surface gangliosides. Consequently, the S1P1R became refractory to S1P stimulation required for activating inhibitory G-protein (Gi) in the plasma membranes. Moreover, the extracellular α-Syn also induced uncoupling of the S1P1R on internal vesicles, resulting in the reduced amount of CD63 molecule (CD63) in the lumen of multivesicular endosomes, together with a decrease in CD63 in the released exosomes from α-Syn-treated cells. Furthermore, cholesterol-depleting agent-induced S1P1R expulsion from the rafts also resulted in S1P1R uncoupling. Taken together, these results suggest that extracellular α-Syn-induced expulsion of S1P1R from lipid rafts promotes the uncoupling of S1P1R from Gi, thereby blocking subsequent Gi signals, such as inhibition of cargo sorting into exosomal vesicles in multivesicular endosomes. These findings help shed additional light on PD pathogenesis.

Abstract
Gangliosides, sialic acid-containing glycosphingolipids, are membrane constituents of vertebrates and are known to have important roles in cellular differentiation, adhesion, and recognition. We report here the isolation of a bacterium capable of degrading gangliotetraose-series gangliosides and a new method for the production of glucosylceramide with this bacterium. GM1a ganglioside was found to be sequentially degraded by Paenibacillus sp. strain TS12, which was isolated from soil, as follows: GM1a --> asialo GM1 --> asialo GM2 --> lactosylceramide --> glucosylceramide. TS12 was found to produce a series of ganglioside-degrading enzymes, such as sialidases, beta-galactosidases, and beta-hexosaminidases. TS12 also produced beta-glucosidases, but glucosylceramide was somewhat resistant to the bacterial enzyme under the conditions used. Taking advantage of the specificity, we developed a new method for the production of glucosylceramide using TS12 as a biocatalyst. The method involves the conversion of crude bovine brain gangliosides to glucosylceramide by coculture with TS12 and purification of the product by chromatography with Wakogel C-300 HG.

Abstract
Among bacterial, fungal and viral sialidases, the sialidase from Arthrobacter ureafaciens has the unique property of cleaving sialic acids linked to the internal galactose of gangliotetraose. In this study, we examined the ability to cleave the internal sialic acids of GM1 and fucosyl GM1 of sialidases from several bacterial and fungal origins, including Clostridium perfringens and Vibrio cholerae. We found that A. ureafaciens sialidase could liberate the sialic acid of GM1 at the highest rate, and was the only enzyme which could cleave fucosyl GM1 among the sialidases examined. The affinity-purified sialidase derived from the culture medium of A. ureafaciens was comprised of four isoenzymes with different molecular weights and isoelectric points, the isoenzymes that cleaved fucosyl GM1 being L (88 kDa, pl 5.0), M1 (66 kDa, pl 6.2) and M2 (66 kDa, pl 5.5), but not S (52 kDa, pl 6.2) which showed the highest specific activity toward colominic acid among the four isoenzymes.

Abstract
Glycosphingolipids play an important role in the immune response, yet their compositions in T and B cells which mediate cellular and humoral immunity, respectively, have not been elucidated. In this study, characteristic features of glycosphingolipids in rat T lineage cells were revealed by comparing the gangliosides and neutral glycolipids of spleen T- and beta-cell-enriched fractions and thymocytes. In T cells, GD1c(NeuGc,NeuGc), a unique ganglioside synthesized through asialo-GM1 (GA1), was the predominant ganglioside as previously found in thymocytes [Nohara, K., Suzuki, M., Inagaki, F., & Kaya, K. (1991) J. Biochem. (Tokyo) 110, 274-278], and the amount was much higher than in thymocytes. In addition, three other GA1-derived gangliosides were detected in T cells and identified as GM1b(NeuAc), GM1b(NeuGc), and GD1 alpha(NeuAc,NeuAc). In contrast, GD1 alpha(NeuAc,NeuAc) was not discernible in thymocytes, although gangliosides corresponding to GM1b(NeuAc) and GM1b(NeuGc) were detected. The neutral glycolipids of T cells contained almost exclusively GA1, while thymocytes contained much lower amounts. The predominance of these GA1-derived gangliosides was confirmed as a singular feature of T lineage cells by comparison with gangliosides of spleen B-cell-enriched fractions which mainly consisted of gangliosides synthesized through GM3 and GM1. Furthermore, the unique structures, which contain the GM1 core and the extended modification of the lacto series, alpha Gal-LacNAc-GM1, alpha Gal-(LacNAc)2-GM1, and sialyl-LacNAc-GM1, were found in B-cell-enriched fractions. Unexpectedly, the neutral glycolipid composition of the thymocytes resembled that of the B-cell enriched fraction rather than that of the T cells.

Abstract
The neutral and acidic fraction glycolipids of Echinococcus granulosus metacestode tissue compartments were isolated, defined by their chromatographic and antigenic properties, and assessed as to their efficacy as antigens in the serodiagnosis of human hepatic cystic and alveolar echinococcosis, and other helminthiases. Analyses were accomplished by thin-layer chromatography immunostaining and ELISA. The neutral glycolipid fraction's major carbohydrate epitope was the same as or very similar to that of Taenia crassiceps neutral glyco(sphingo)lipids, as represented by the 'neogala'-series core structure. The blood group-active, carbohydrate epitope P1 was expressed by a number of neutral fraction glycolipid component bands. The reverse-phase, thin-layer chromatography-isolated neutral fraction glycolipid component, designated Ag1, was efficient in the serological discrimination of cystic echinococcosis medium to high-titred sera. Ag1 did not specifically discriminate low-titred sera, i.e., other human helminthiases. The detected sialic acid residues of the acidic fraction glycolipids, on enzymatic cleavage, were identified as N-acylneuraminic acid and terminal. The acidic fraction glycolipids exhibited the paradox of only chemically minor components being antigenic towards cystic and alveolar echinococcosis infection sera. The combined acidic fraction glycolipid components Ra and Rx were capable of serological discrimination between cystic echinococcosis, alveolar echinococcosis and other helminthiases.

Abstract
By using a sensitive method, we assayed lysocompounds of gangliosides and asialogangliosides in tissues from four patients with GM2 gangliosidosis (one with Sandhoff disease and three with Tay-Sachs disease) and from three patients with GM1 gangliosidosis [one with infantile type (fetus), one with late-infantile, and one with adult type]. In the brain and spinal cord of all the patients except for an adult GM1 gangliosidosis patient, abnormal accumulation of the lipids was observed, though the concentration in the fetal tissue was low. In GM2 gangliosidosis, the amounts of lyso GM2 ganglioside accumulated in the brain were similar among the patient with Sandhoff disease and the patients with Tay-Sachs disease, whereas the concentration of asialo lyso GM2 ganglioside in the brain was higher in the former patient than in the latter patients. By comparing the sphingoid bases of neutral sphingolipids, gangliosides, and lysosphingolipids, it was suggested that lysosphingolipids in the diseased tissue are synthesized by sequential glycosylation from free sphingoid bases, but not by deacylation of the sphingolipids. Because lysosphingolipids are known to be cytotoxic, the abnormally accumulated lysophingolipids may well be the pathogenetic agent for the neuronal degeneration in gangliosidoses.

Abstract
Lysogangliosides, LGM1, LGM2 and LGM3, each carrying a single sphingoid base (i.e., C18:1, C18:0, C20:1, C20:0), were prepared and a sensitive assay method of these lipids using HPLC was developed. The method involves fluorescence derivatization of the free amino group of the molecule with o-phthalaldehyde, separation of the molecular species of each lysoganglioside using reversed-phase HPLC and assay on the basis of a known amount of one of the lysogangliosides, as the internal standard. Using this method, lysoganglioside can be accurately assayed in the range of 5-1000 pmol. For assay of the lipid in the tissue, crude isolation procedures including extraction of lipids, Folch's partition and DEAE-Sepharose and AG 1-X2 column chromatographies were required before the fluorescence derivatization. In the normal human and the bovine cerebral cortex, 0.4-2.0 pmol/mg protein of LGM1 containing C18:1 and C20:1 sphingosine residues were detected. In the frontal cortex from a patient with Sandhoff disease, an abnormal accumulation (55-78 pmol/mg protein) of LGM2 was noted. Among various molecular species, LGM2 containing C18:1 was the most abundant.

Abstract
Treatment of cells with lectins specific for N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) blocked infection by mouse cytomegalovirus (MCMV), and GlcNAc pretreatment of the lectin blocked this effect. MCMV failed to infect N-acetylglucosaminidase (GlcNAcase)-treated mouse embryo fibroblasts (MEF). GlcNAc and GlcNAc-containing synthetic oligosaccharides directly inhibited viral infectivity. Ulex lectin inhibition of infection was shown to be due to inhibition of surface adsorption of 35S-labeled virus. Also, GlcNAcase eluted 35S-labeled virus adsorbed to MEF at 4 degrees C and inhibited plaque formation if added after adsorption at this temperature. These findings indicate that GlcNAc binding is involved in attachment rather than in some later step in infection. High-performance thin-layer chromatography overlay of [35S]MCMV indicated that it binds to a GlcNAc-containing asialoglycolipid. Analogous experiments indicated that MCMV made virulent by in vivo salivary gland passage binds to sialic acids in addition to GlcNAc. Treatment of MEF with sialic acid-binding lectins blocked infectivity. Incubation of virus with sialic acids also prevented infection. N-acetylneuraminic acid was 10(3)-fold more potent than N-glycolylneuraminic acid. Sialidase-treated target cells were not efficiently infected by the virus. Thus, MCMV binds to GlcNAc on the cell surface, and the shift to virulence (by in vivo salivary gland passage) correlates with viral recognition of sialic acids.

Abstract
We analyzed the biochemical properties and biological significance of the melanoma antigen secreted in the culture supernatants of B16 melanoma cells. The 80 kilodalton (kd) molecule bearing the epitopes of mouse melanoma antigen was found to associate noncovalently with an 18 kd moiety in the culture supernatants as well as on the cell surface. Tunicamycin treatment of B16 cells did not affect the expression of the 69 kd nonglycosylated form of the 80 kd molecule but did abolish the association between the two molecules on the cell surface. We could not detect this antigen as a soluble form when the N-linked glycosylation was inhibited. Therefore, the glycosylation of the 80 kd molecule is essential for the formation of the 80 kd/18 kd complex and also for the secretion. Moreover, the affinity-purified melanoma antigen from the supernatants could induce anti-melanoma suppressor cells which block the generation of cytotoxic T lymphocytes against melanoma cells. Thus, the 80 kd glycoprotein as a soluble melanoma antigen performed a pivotal function in the escape mechanisms of melanoma cells from the host immune surveillance system.

Abstract
Human coronavirus OC43 and bovine coronavirus elute from agglutinated chicken erythrocytes when incubated at 37 degrees C, suggesting the presence of a receptor-destroying enzyme. Moreover, bovine coronavirus exhibits an acetylesterase activity in vitro using bovine submaxillary mucin as substrate similar to the enzymatic activity found in influenza C viruses. Furthermore, pretreatment of erythrocytes with either influenza C virus or bovine coronavirus eliminates subsequent binding and agglutination by either coronaviruses or influenza C virus, whereas binding of influenza A virus remains intact. In addition, hemagglutination by coronaviruses can be inhibited by pretreatment of erythrocytes with Arthrobacter ureafaciens or Clostridium perfringens neuraminidase or by addition of sialic acid-containing gangliosides. These results suggest that, like influenza C viruses, human coronavirus OC43 and bovine coronavirus recognize O-acetylated sialic acid or a similar derivative as cell receptor.

Abstract
Rat liver plasma membrane removed sialic acid from mixed bovine brain gangliosides more efficiently than from sialyllactose and orosomucoid with an optimal pH of 4.5. When individual gangliosides, each labeled with [14C]sialic acid or [3H]sphingosine, were tested, not only GD1a and GM3 but also GM2 and GM1, both of which had been considered to resist mammalian sialidases, were desialylated. The products of GM2 and GM1 hydrolysis were identified as asialo-GM2 and asialo-GM1, respectively, by thin-layer chromatography.

Abstract
The hippocampal slices were incubated with compounds which hydrolyze, modify or bind with sialic acid containing molecules. The efficiency of synaptic transmission was tested in the presence of these compounds. The size of the evoked extracellularly recorded potential following Schaffer collateral stimulation was used as an indicator of synaptic transmission efficiency. Sodium periodate (10 mM) and sodium perchlorate (59.2 mM) evoked a reversible (after washout) decrease in the size of the population spike. Higher concentration of sodium periodate (60 mM) abolished the size of the population spike, which was only poorly reversible after washout. Tetanus toxin, which binds to polysialogangliosides, and neuraminidase from Vibrio cholerae (an enzyme which splits off sialic acid from polysialogangliosides, leaving GM1 intact, and splits off sialic acid from sialoglycoproteins) had no influence on the size of the population spike. Cholera toxin, which binds to GM1, slightly reduced the size of the population spike. Incubation of the slices with neuraminidase from Arthrobacter ureafaciens (an enzyme which splits off sialic acid from all gangliosides, including GM1, and from sialoglycoproteins) abolished the population spike after 5 h. GM1 antiserum abolished the potential after approximately 100 min. The conclusion is drawn that of all gangliosides only GM1 is necessary to support synaptic transmission in Schaffer collateral-pyramidal cell synapses.

Abstract
A novel GDlb ganglioside which contains only N-glycolylneuraminic acid was isolated from bovine adrenal medulla by DEAE-Sephadex A-25 and Iatrobeads column chromatography. The concentration of this ganglioside was 0.9 nmol lipid-bound sialic acid per gram fresh tissue, which accounted for 2.7% of the disialoganglioside fraction. The structure was elucidated by sugar analysis, neuraminidase digestion, and permethylation studies. The complete structure of this ganglioside was identified as GDlb (NeuGc)2 or II3 (NeuGc)2-GgOse4Cer.

Abstract
Purified liver lysosomes, prepared from rats previously injected with Triton WR-1339, exhibited sialidase activity towards sialyllactose, fetuin, submaxillary mucin (bovine) and gangliosides, and could be disrupted hypotonically with little loss in these activities. After centrifugation, the activities with sialyllactose and fetuin were largely recovered in the supernatant, demonstrating that they were originally in the intralysosomal space. The activities towards submaxillary mucin and gangliosides, on the other hand, remained in the pellet. In the supernatant, activity with fetuin or orosomucoid was markedly reduced by protease inhibitors, suggesting that proteolysis of these glycoproteins may be prerequisite to sialidase activity. The intralysosomal sialidase was solubilized from the mitochondrial-lysosomal fraction of rat liver and partially purified by Sephadex G-200, or Sephadex G-200 followed by CM-cellulose. The enzyme was maximally active at pH 4.7 with sialyllactose as substrate and had a minimum relative molecular mass of 60 000 +/- 5000 by gel filtration; it hydrolyzed a variety of sialooligosaccharides , those containing (alpha 2----3)sialyl linkages being better substrates than those with (alpha 2----6)sialyl linkages. The enzyme failed to attack submaxillary mucin and gangliosides. It was also inactive towards fetuin, orosomucoid and transferrin but capable of hydrolyzing glycopeptides from pronase digest of fetuin. In contrast to the intralysosomal sialidase, the sialidase partially purified from rat liver cytosol by (NH4)2SO4 fractionation followed by chromatography on DEAE-cellulose and CM-cellulose hydrolyzed fetuin and orosomucoid to the extent about half that for sialyllactose. The enzyme was maximally active at pH 5.8 and had a relative molecular mass of approximately 60 000. It also hydrolyzed gangliosides but not submaxillary mucin.

Abstract
The 1-8 rat thyroid tumor line with a thyrotropin and cholera toxin receptor defect and a deficiency in higher order membrane gangliosides is shown to regain both receptor functions with the in vivo resynthesis or the in vitro reconstitution of higher order gangliosides. Reconstitution was achieved by exposing primary cell cultures of the tumor to preparations of gangliosides from thyroid cells with functional thyrotropin receptor activity.

Abstract
The action of Clostridium perfringens neuraminidase on the ganglioside Gm1 tritiated in the ceramide moiety was studied. The rates of hydrolysis of the Gm1 ganglioside were determined from radioactivity in the neutral glycolipid product, which was separated from the substrate on DEAE-Sephadex columns. In order to study the physical state of the substrate in the conditions used in the neuraminidase treatment, the critical micelle concentrations of the Gm1 ganglioside were determined using formation of the triiodide anion in aqueous iodine solution as an indicator. The critical micelle concentrations were also obtained by determining the non-sedimenting radioactivity at different concentrations of the labeled ganglioside per total volume used in ultracentrifugation experiments. In addition, the concentrations of the monomeric ganglioside were concluded from the results of the ultra-centrifugation studies. The increase in the reaction rate of the Gm1 hydrolysis as the function of the substrate concentration was leveled off at 25-28 microM ganglioside. The abrupt change at this concentration is interpreted as reflecting the monomer-micelle transition of the ganglioside in the conditions used (50mM sodium acetate buffer, pH 4.6). The critical micelle concentration was 29 microM on the basis of the triiodide test, and ultracentrifugation revealed the critical micelle concentration 28 microM. The reaction velocity of the hydrolysis was decreased immediately above the critical micelle concentration, and became constant at higher concentrations of the ganglioside. A close correlation to these changes in the reaction rate is suggested to exist in the concentrations of the monomeric Gm1 ganglioside. Saturation of the buffer used in the neuraminidase assays with butanol effected a striking change in the plot of reaction rate versus ganglioside concentration. The reaction rate increased up to 100-110 microM Gm1 ganglioside. The shift of the inflexion point in the rate plot from 25-28 microM to 100-110 microM ganglioside concentration is suggested to be due to a respective change in the critical micelle concentration effected by butanol. N-Acetylneuraminyllactosyl ceramide, lactosyl ceramide and asialo-Gm1 ganglioside had an inhibitory effect on the reaction. In contrast, N-acetylneuraminyllactose, lactose and some other free saccharides were not inhibitory. The results demonstrate that factors other than the saccharide structure must be taken into account when substrate specificity of a glycosidase is studied using competition experiments. It is suggested that the inhibition effected by the glycolipids is due to an increase in the micellar state of the Gm1 ganglioside.
