Abstract
Modification of antigens to improve their immunogenicity represents a promising direction for the development of protein vaccine. Here, we designed facilely prepared adjuvant-free vaccines in which the N-glycan of SARS-CoV-2 receptor-binding domain (RBD) glycoprotein was oxidized by sodium periodate. This strategy only minimally modifies the glycans and does not interfere with the epitope peptides. The RBD glycoprotein oxidized by high concentrations of periodate (RBDHO) significantly enhanced antigen uptake mediated by scavenger receptors and promoted the activation of antigen-presenting cells. Without any external adjuvant, two doses of RBDHO elicited 324- and 27-fold increases in IgG antibody titers and neutralizing antibody titers, respectively, compared to the unmodified RBD antigen. Meanwhile, the RBDHO vaccine could cross-neutralize all of the SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern. In addition, RBDHO effectively enhanced cellular immune responses. This study provides a new insight for the development of adjuvant-free protein vaccines.

Abstract
Comprehensive analysis of protein glycation is important for better understanding of its formation mechanism and biological significance. The current preconcentration methods of glycated proteome mainly depend on the reversible combination of boronic acid and cis-dihydroxy group by pH adjustment, but it has inherent limitations (e.g., poor specificity and time-consuming). Herein, for the first time, a novel enrichment method for glycated peptides is proposed based on the reversible chemical reaction between aldehyde and 1,2-aminothiol groups, in which oxidized glycated peptides are captured onto the magnetic nanoparticles via thiazolidine chemistry and then released by palladium-mediated cleavage. The method is rapid, with excellent selectivity (even at a 1:1000 molar ratio of glycated peptides/nonglycated peptides) and high sensitivity (1 fmol/μL). As a good evidence, 1549 glycated peptides were identified from glycated human serum with 94.6% specificity, providing a powerful technique for high-throughput analysis of glycated peptides.

Abstract
Protein glycosylation governs key physiological and pathological processes in human cells. Aberrant glycosylation is thus closely associated with disease progression. Mass spectrometry (MS)-based glycoproteomics has emerged as an indispensable tool for investigating glycosylation changes in biological samples with high sensitivity. Following rapid improvements in methodologies for reliable intact glycopeptide identification, site-specific quantification of glycopeptide macro- and micro-heterogeneity at the proteome scale has become an urgent need for exploring glycosylation regulations. Here, we summarize recent advances in N- and O-linked glycoproteomic quantification strategies and discuss their limitations. We further describe a strategy to propagate MS data for multilayered glycopeptide quantification, enabling a more comprehensive examination of global and site-specific glycosylation changes. Altogether, we show how quantitative glycoproteomics methods explore glycosylation regulation in human diseases and promote the discovery of biomarkers and therapeutic targets.

Abstract
N-linked protein glycosylation is a key regulator in various biological functions. Previous studies have shown that aberrant glycosylation is associated with many diseases. Therefore, it is essential to elucidate protein modifications of glycosylation by quantitatively profiling intact N-linked glycopeptides. Data-independent acquisition (DIA) mass spectrometry (MS) is a cost-effective, flexible, and high-throughput method for global proteomics. However, substantial challenges are still present in the quantitative analysis of intact glycopeptides with high accuracy at high throughput. In this study, we have established a novel integrated platform for the DIA analysis of intact glycopeptides isolated from complex samples. The established analysis platform utilizes a well-designed DIA-MS method for raw data collection, a spectral library constructed specifically for intact glycopeptide quantification providing accurate results by the inclusion of Y ions for quantification and filtering of quantified intact glycopeptides with low-quality MS2 spectra automatically using a set of criteria. Intact glycopeptides isolated from human serum were used to evaluate the performance of the integrated platform. By utilizing 100 isolation windows for DIA data acquisition, a well-constructed human serum spectral library containing 1123 nonredundant intact glycopeptides with Y ions, and automated data inspection, 620 intact glycopeptides were quantified with high confidence from DIA-MS. In summary, our integrated platform can serve as a reliable quantitative tool for characterizing intact glycopeptides isolated from complex biological samples to assist our understanding of biological functions of N-linked glycosylation.

Abstract
Growing implications of glycosylation in physiological occurrences and human disease have prompted intensive focus on revealing glycomic perturbations through absolute and relative quantification. Empowered by seminal methodologies and increasing capacity for detection, identification, and characterization, the past decade has provided a significant increase in the number of suitable strategies for glycan and glycopeptide quantification. Mass-spectrometry-based strategies for glycomic quantitation have grown to include metabolic incorporation of stable isotopes, deposition of mass difference and mass defect isotopic labels, and isobaric chemical labeling, providing researchers with ample tools for accurate and robust quantitation. Beyond this, workflows have been designed to harness instrument capability for label-free quantification, and numerous software packages have been developed to facilitate reliable spectrum scoring. In this review, we present and highlight the most recent advances in chemical labeling and associated techniques for glycan and glycopeptide quantification.

Abstract
Sialylation, an important form of glycosylation, is involved in many biological processes and plays an important role in the development of diseases. However, due to the low abundance among various glycosylation and lack of efficient enrichment method with high specificity, the study of sialylation remains a challenge. Herein, multi-histidine modified microspheres (MHM) were synthesized to enrich sialylated glycopeptides. It was found that MHM could selectively enrich sialylated glycopeptides from over 100 times of non-sialylated glycopeptides, which indicated MHM possessed good enrichment specificity towards sialylated glycopeptides. Furthermore, MHM were utilized to the large-scale analysis of protein sialylation, and 510 intact glycopeptides were identified with over 94.5% sialylated glycopeptide specificity from 4 μL human serum. The good specificity could be attributed to the synergistic effect by the electrostatic interaction and hydrophilic interaction. Hence, MHM could provide an alternative approach for the analysis of site-specific sialylation at proteome level from complex biological samples.

Abstract
BACKGROUND N-linked glycoprotein is a highly interesting class of proteins for clinical and biological research. The large-scale characterization of N-linked glycoproteins accomplished by mass spectrometry-based glycoproteomics has provided valuable insights into the interdependence of glycoprotein structure and protein function. However, these studies focused mainly on the analysis of specific sample type, and lack the integration of glycoproteomic data from different tissues, body fluids or cell types. METHODS In this study, we collected the human glycosite-containing peptides identified through their de-glycosylated forms by mass spectrometry from over 100 publications and unpublished datasets generated from our laboratory. A database resource termed N-GlycositeAtlas was created and further used for the distribution analyses of glycoproteins among different human cells, tissues and body fluids. Finally, a web interface of N-GlycositeAtlas was created to maximize the utility and value of the database. RESULTS The N-GlycositeAtlas database contains more than 30,000 glycosite-containing peptides (representing > 14,000 N-glycosylation sites) from more than 7200 N-glycoproteins from different biological sources including human-derived tissues, body fluids and cell lines from over 100 studies. CONCLUSIONS The entire human N-glycoproteome database as well as 22 sub-databases associated with individual tissues or body fluids can be downloaded from the N-GlycositeAtlas website at http://nglycositeatlas.biomarkercenter.org.

Abstract
Aberrant sialylation of glycoproteins is closely related to many malignant diseases, and analysis of sialylation has great potential to reveal the status of these diseases. However, in-depth analysis of sialylation is still challenging because of the high microheterogeneity of protein glycosylation, as well as the low abundance of sialylated glycopeptides (SGPs). Herein, an integrated strategy was fabricated for the detailed characterization of glycoprotein sialylation on the levels of glycosites and site-specific glycoforms by employing the SGP enrichment method. This strategy enabled the identification of up to 380 glycosites, as well as 414 intact glycopeptides corresponding to 383 site-specific glycoforms from only initial 6 μL serum samples, indicating the high sensitivity of the method for the detailed analysis of glycoprotein sialylation. This strategy was further employed to the differential analysis of glycoprotein sialylation between hepatocellular carcinoma patients and control samples, leading to the quantification of 344 glycosites and 405 site-specific glycoforms, simultaneously. Among these, 43 glycosites and 55 site-specific glycoforms were found to have significant change on the glycosite and site-specific glycoform levels, respectively. Interestingly, several glycoforms attached onto the same glycosite were found with different change tendencies. This strategy was demonstrated to be a powerful tool to reveal subtle differences of the macro- and microheterogeneity of glycoprotein sialylation.

Abstract
Determination of site-specific glycoforms is the key to reveal the micro-heterogeneity of protein glycosylation at proteome level. Herein, we presented an integrated virtual multistage MS strategy to identify intact glycopeptides, which allowed the determination of site-specific glycoforms. In this strategy, the enzymatically de-glycosylated peptides and intact glycopeptides were mixed and analyzed in the same LC-MS/MS run. The acquired MS2 spectra of intact glycopeptides allowed determination of the glycans, and the MS2 spectra of the de-glycosylated peptides enabled the identification of peptide backbone sequences. Compared with the conventional multistage strategy, the peptide backbones could be directly identified by the MS2 of the de-glycopeptides with higher sensitivity. This strategy was first validated by analyzing the glycosites and site-specific glycoforms of mouse liver tissues. Then, it was applied to differential analysis of the glycoproteomes of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and adjacent liver tissues. Compared with the identification scheme using only MS2 spectra of intact glycopeptides or glycosites, this approach enabled quantitative analysis on two levels, i.e. glycosites and site-specific glycoforms, simultaneously. Thus, it could be a powerful tool to characterize the subtle differences in the macro- and micro-heterogeneity of protein glycosylation for different samples.

Quantification of N-glycosylation site occupancy status based on labeling/label-free strategies with LC-MS/MS. Talanta 2017; 170:509-513. [PMID: 28501204 DOI: 10.1016/j.talanta.2017.04.053] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/06/2017] [Revised: 04/18/2017] [Accepted: 04/21/2017] [Indexed: 12/30/2022]
Abstract
Protein N-glycosylation plays important roles in physiological and pathological processes. Characterizing the site-specific N-glycosylation including N-glycan macroheterogeneity (glycosylation site occupancy) and microheterogeneity (site-specific glycan structure) is important for understanding of glycoprotein biosynthesis and function. N-Glycan macroheterogeneity is a physiological property of glycoprotein and the technical obstacles have restricted research into the regulation and functions of this heterogeneity. Quantification of N-glycosylation site occupancy would uncover the critical role of macroheterogeneity in a variety of biological properties. Liquid chromatography (LC)- mass spectrometry (MS)-based quantification is emerging as a powerful tool for glycosylation characterization. This review summarizes the labeling and label-free quantitative MS approaches for quantifying N-glycosylation site occupancy, including its quantification for target glycoproteins in recent years.

Abstract
The glycoproteome remains severely understudied because of significant analytical challenges associated with glycoproteomics, the system-wide analysis of intact glycopeptides. This review introduces important structural aspects of protein N-glycosylation and summarizes the latest technological developments and applications in LC-MS/MS-based qualitative and quantitative N-glycoproteomics. These maturing technologies provide unique structural insights into the N-glycoproteome and its synthesis and regulation by complementing existing methods in glycoscience. Modern glycoproteomics is now sufficiently mature to initiate efforts to capture the molecular complexity displayed by the N-glycoproteome, opening exciting opportunities to increase our understanding of the functional roles of protein N-glycosylation in human health and disease.

Abstract
An amine chemistry method was developed for the extraction of N-glycopeptides using amine-functionalized beads for glycoproteomics analysis. Two reductive amination reactions between primary amine and aldehyde were employed in this approach. The first one was to block the primary amines in the peptides by addition of formaldehyde and sodium cyanoborohydride into the peptide sample, and the second one was to couple the glycopeptides onto solid phase beads by incubating the glycopeptides containing aldehyde groups (oxidized by periodate) with the amine-functionalized beads in the presence of sodium cyanoborohydride. It was demonstrated that the blocking of primary amines in the peptides by the first reductive amination reaction prior to the periodate oxidation made the amine chemistry method very efficient and sensitive. This new method was validated by analysis of glycoprotein standards as well as proteome samples. It was found that this new method led to significant increase in the identification of N-glycosites compared with the conventional hydrazide chemistry method.

Abstract
Due to the increase in life expectancy in the last decades, as well as changes in lifestyle, cancer has become one of the most common diseases both in developed and developing countries. Early detection remains the most promising approach to improve long-term survival of cancer patients and this may be achieved by efficient screening of biomarkers in biological fluids. Great efforts have been made to identify specific alterations during oncogenesis. Changes at the cellular glycosylation profiles are among such alterations. The "glycosylation machinery" of cells is affected by malignant transformation due to the altered expression of glycogens, leading to changes in glycan biosynthesis and diversity. Alterations in the post-translational modifications of proteins that occur in cancer result in the expression of antigenically distinct glycoproteins. Therefore, these aberrant and cancer-specific glycoproteins and the autoantibodies that are produced in response to their presence constitute targets for cancer biomarkers' search. Different strategies have been implemented for the discovery of cancer glycobiomarkers and are herein reviewed, along with their potentialities and limitations. Practical issues related with serum analysis are also addressed, as well as the challenges that this area faces in the near future.
