Abstract
As the main active glycoprotein of egg white, the biological functions of chicken ovomucin α- and β-subunit are closely related to the structure of glycans. However, the exact composition and structure of the subunit glycans are still unknown. We obtained highly pure chicken ovomucin α-subunit and β-subunit protein bands by the strategy combined with two-step isoelectric precipitation and SDS-PAGE gel electrophoresis. The ammonia-catalyzed one-pot procedure was then used to release and capture α-and β-subunit protein glycans with 1-phenyl- 3-Methyl-5-pyrazolone (PMP). The N/O-glycans of bis-PMP derivatives were purified and analyzed by LC-MS. More importantly, an effective dual modification was performed to accurately quantify neutral and sialylated O-glycans through methylamidation of sialic acid residues and simultaneously through carbonyl condensation reactions of reducing ends with PMP. We first showed that the α-subunit protein has only N-glycosylation modification, and the β-subunit only O-glycosylation, a total of 22 N-glycans and 20 O-glycans were identified in the α- and β-subunit, respectively. In addition, the complex N-glycan (47 %) and the sialylated O-glycan (77 %) are each major types of the above subunits. Such findings in this study provide a basis for studying the functional and biological activities of chicken ovomucin glycans.

Abstract
Glycans mediate various biological processes through carbohydrate-protein interactions, and glycan microarrays have become indispensable tools for understanding these mechanisms. However, advances in functional glycomics are hindered by the absence of convenient and universal methods for obtaining natural glycan libraries with diverse structures from glycoconjugates. To address this challenge, we have developed an integrative approach that enables one-pot release and simultaneously capture, separation, structural characterization, and functional analysis of N/O-glycans. Using this approach, glycoconjugates are incubated with a pyrazolone-type heterobifunctional tag-ANPMP to obtain glycan-2ANPMP conjugates, which are then converted to glycan-AEPMP conjugates. We prepared a tagged glycan library from porcine gastric mucin, soy protein, human milk oligosaccharides, etc. Following derivatization by N-acetylation and permethylation, glycans were subjected to detailed structural characterization by ESI-MSn analysis, which revealed >83 highly pure glycan-AEPMPs containing various natural glycan epitopes. A shotgun microarray is constructed to study the fine details of glycan-bindings by proteins and antisera.

Abstract
Glycans have been proven to play special roles in keeping human health as a class of nutritional and bioactive ingredients in many food materials. However, their broad use in the food industry is hindered by the lack of comprehensive analytical methods for high-quality food glycomics studies and large-quantity raw materials for their production. This study focuses on structural identification and quantitative comparison of bioactive N-glycans in seven species of livestock and poultry plasma as potential natural glycan resources by a novel comprehensive relative quantification strategy based on stable isotope labeling with nondeuterated and deuterated 4-methyl-1-(2-hydrazino-2-oxoethyl)-pyridinium bromide (d0/d7-HMP) in combination with linkage-specific derivatization of sialic acid residues. Methodological validation of the method in terms of detection sensitivity, signal resolution, quantification linearity, precision, and accuracy on model neutral and complicated sialylated glycans demonstrated its advantages over the existing methods. Based on this method, a series of bioactive N-glycans were found in seven species of livestock and poultry plasma, and their differences in structure, abundance percentages, and relative contents of N-glycans were revealed, demonstrating their excellent applicability for comprehensive food glycomics analysis and great exploitation potential of these plasma samples as large-quantity raw materials in producing bioactive N-glycans for application in food and pharmaceutical industries.

Abstract
Small structural differences bring great difficulties on carbohydrates identification, especially in terms of their quantification. Herein, a novel ESI-MS/MS based strategy was established to discriminate and relatively quantified protonated PMP-disaccharides with different composition and glycosidic bond. Interestingly, protonated PMP labeled-disaccharides provided abundant fragment ions arising from cross-ring cleavage and glycosidic bond cleavage, which could afford diagnostic fragment patterns for isomers differentiation in combination of statistical analysis. It was worth to note that the relative intensity ratios (RIR) of three ion pairs could completely discriminate 16 disaccharides, and subsequently used to relatively quantified isomers in a binary mixture. Ultimately, this method was applied for the discrimination of yellow rice wine, and then the relative content of maltose and isomaltose were confirmed as well. In general, this method was easy to operation and effective for rapid differentiation and quantification of isomeric disaccharides in complex matrices.

AepG is a glucuronosyltransferase involved in acidic exopolysaccharide synthesis and contributes to environmental adaptation of Haloarcula hispanica. J Biol Chem 2023; 299:102911. [PMID: 36642187 PMCID: PMC9943897 DOI: 10.1016/j.jbc.2023.102911] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/21/2022] [Revised: 01/03/2023] [Accepted: 01/04/2023] [Indexed: 01/14/2023] Open
Abstract
The attachment of a sugar to a hydrophobic lipid carrier is the first step in the biosynthesis of many glycoconjugates. In the halophilic archaeon Haloarcula hispanica, HAH_1206, renamed AepG, is a predicted glycosyltransferase belonging to the CAZy Group 2 family that shares a conserved amino acid sequence with dolichol phosphate mannose synthases. In this study, the function of AepG was investigated by genetic and biochemical approaches. We found that aepG deletion led to the disappearance of dolichol phosphate-glucuronic acid. Our biochemical assays revealed that recombinant cellulose-binding, domain-tagged AepG could catalyze the formation of dolichol phosphate-glucuronic acid in time- and dose-dependent manners. Based on the in vivo and in vitro analyses, AepG was confirmed to be a dolichol phosphate glucuronosyltransferase involved in the synthesis of the acidic exopolysaccharide produced by H. hispanica. Furthermore, lack of aepG resulted in hindered growth and cell aggregation in high salt medium, indicating that AepG is vital for the adaptation of H. hispanica to a high salt environment. In conclusion, AepG is the first dolichol phosphate glucuronosyltransferase identified in any of the three domains of life and, moreover, offers a starting point for further investigation into the diverse pathways used for extracellular polysaccharide biosynthesis in archaea.

Abstract
O-Glycosylation is one of the most common protein post-translational modifications (PTM) and plays an essential role in the pathophysiology of diseases. However, the complexity of O-glycosylation and the lack of specific enzymes for the processing of O-glycans and their O-glycopeptides make O-glycosylation analysis challenging. Recently, research on O-glycosylation has received attention owing to technological innovation and emerging O-glycoproteases. Several serine/threonine endoproteases have been found to specifically cleave O-glycosylated serine or threonine, allowing for the systematic analysis of O-glycoproteins. In this review, we first assessed the field of protein O-glycosylation over the past decade and used bibliometric analysis to identify keywords and emerging trends. We then summarized recent advances in O-glycosylation, covering several aspects: O-glycan release, site-specific elucidation of intact O-glycopeptides, identification of O-glycosites, characterization of different O-glycoproteases, mass spectrometry (MS) fragmentation methods for site-specific O-glycosylation assignment, and O-glycosylation data analysis. Finally, the role of O-glycosylation in health and disease was discussed.

Abstract
Oligosaccharides and N/O-glycans are abundant in human milk and have numerous biological functions (for instance sialylated glycans provide sialic acid for the growth of infant brains), but their variation trends during lactation need further exploration. Qualitative and quantitative analyses of oligosaccharides and N/O-glycans in human milk at different lactation stages (from 7 days to 8 months) were performed using UHPLC-ESI-MS/MS. Thirty-four oligosaccharides, twenty-three N-glycans, and six O-glycans were identified. Oligosaccharides showed the highest abundance in human colostrum and decreased with the progression of lactation, and the abundance of N/O-glycans fluctuated as lactation progressed, while a high abundance of sialylated oligosaccharides and sialylated N/O-glycans was observed in human colostrum. These findings provide evidence for breastfeeding support and contribute to the development of infant formula supplemented with human milk glycans.

Abstract
Over the past few decades, essential role of glycosylation in protein functioning has become widely recognized, rapidly advancing glycan analysis techniques. Because free glycan’s lack chromophore or fluorophore properties, and do not ionize well, they are often derivatized to facilitate their separation or detection, and to enhance the sensitivity of the analysis. Released glycan’s are usually derivatized using a fluorescent tag, which enables their optical detection in LC profiling. Some fluorescent labels can also promote ionization efficiency, thus facilitating MS detection. For this reason, there is a need to design fluorophores that will contribute more to the fluorescence and ionization of glycan’s and the need to quantify these contributions to improve glycan analysis methods. In this paper we focused on negative MS mode as these methods are more informative than methods involving positive MS mode, allowing for a less ambiguous elucidation of detailed glycan structures. Additionally, traditional glycan labels in negative mode MS usually result with diminished sensitivity compared to positive mode, thus making selection of appropriate label even more important for successful high-throughput analysis. Therefore, eleven fluorescent labels of different chemo-physical properties were chosen to study the influence of label hydrophobicity and presence of a negative charge on glycan ionization in negative MS mode. N-glycans released from IgG sample were labeled with one of the eleven labels, purified with HILIC-SPE and analyzed with HILIC-UPLC-FLR-MS. To make evaluation of studied labels performance more objective, analysis was performed in two laboratories and at two mobile phase pH (4.4 and 7.4). Although there was a notable trend of more hydrophobic labels having bigger signal intensities in one laboratory, we observed no such trend in the other laboratory. The results show that MS parameters and intrinsic configuration of the spectrometer have even bigger effect on the final ESI response of the labeled-glycan ionization in negative MS mode that the labels themselves. With this in mind, further research and development of fluorophores that will be suitable for high-throughput glycan analysis in the negative MS mode are proposed.

Abstract
Casein glycomacropeptide carries various O-glycan modifications, which, together with variations in the amino acid composition of the glycopeptide, may result in different biological activities. In this study, O-glycans of casein glycomacropeptide from bovine and caprine whey powder were qualitatively and quantitatively analyzed by LC-UV-ESI-MS/MS, and their immune activities and regulatory mechanisms were compared. O-Glycans' total content was 1.54 times higher in bovine than in caprine glycomacropeptide. The glycoform H1N1S2 (H: hexose; N: N-acetylgalactosamine; and S: N-acetylneuraminic acid) accounted for nearly 50% of total glycomacropeptide O-glycans in bovine milk but less than 20% in caprine milk. Bovine glycomacropeptide glycosylation promoted the immune activity of RAW264.7 cells, which may be linked to a higher content of disialylated O-glycans. Glycomacropeptide from both milk sources significantly upregulated the mRNA expression of IL-1α, TNF-α, and IL-10 in RAW264.7 cells and activated the MAPK immunomodulatory signaling pathway. This study demonstrates the possible use of casein glycomacropeptide as an immunomodulatory agent.

Abstract
Advances in bioanalytical technology have accelerated the analysis of complex protein glycosylation, which is beneficial to understanding glycosylation in drug discovery and disease diagnosis. Due to its biological uniqueness in the course of disease occurrence and development, disease-specific glycosylation requires quantitative characterization of protein glycosylation. We provide a comprehensive review of recent advances in glycosylation analysis, including workflows for glycoprotein digestion, glycopeptide separation and enrichment, and mass-spectrometry sequencing. We specifically focus on different strategies for glycopeptide enrichment through physical interaction, chemical oxidation, or metabolic labeling of intact glycopeptides. The recent advances and challenges of O-glycosylation analysis are presented, and the development of improved enrichment methods combining different proteases to analyze O-glycosylation is also proposed.

[PMID: 34973737 DOI: 10.1016/j.carbpol.2021.118918] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/20/2021] [Revised: 11/14/2021] [Accepted: 11/16/2021] [Indexed: 11/02/2022]
Abstract
Yak milk (YM) has higher protein content than other bovine milk (BM) varieties. The bioactivity of milk glycoproteins is related to N/O-glycans. We qualitatively and quantitatively compared the N/O-glycome of YM and BM glycoproteins using stable isotope labeling combined with hydrophilic interaction chromatography and electrospray ionization mass spectrometry. We identified 79 and 78 N-glycans in YM and BM, respectively. Two N-glycans (H4N5F1A1; H5N4F1) were exclusive to YM. The content ratios of different types of N-glycans differed significantly between YM and BM, with sialylated N-glycans 2.33 times more abundant in YM. Five and seven O-glycans were detected in YM and BM, respectively. Two O-glycans (H1N2; H1N2A1) were exclusive to BM. The bi-sialylated O-glycan, H1N1A2, accounted for 56.1% of O-glycans in YM; it was 5.97 times more abundant in YM than in BM (equal volume basis). This study provides a theoretical basis for the future utilization of YM as a functional food.

Abstract
Growing significance of glycosylation in protein functions has accelerated the development of methodologies for detection, identification, and characterization of protein glycosylation. In the past decade, glycobiology research has been advanced by innovative techniques with further progression in the post-genome era. Although significant technical progress has been made in terms of analytical throughput, comprehensiveness, and sensitivity, most methods for glycosylation analysis still require laborious and time-consuming sample preparation tasks. Additionally, sample preparation methods that are focused on specific glycan(s) require an in-depth understanding of various issues in glycobiology. In this review, modern sample preparation and chemical modification methods for the structural and quantitative glycan analyses together with the challenges and advantages of recent sample preparation methods are summarized. The techniques presented herein can facilitate the exploration of biomarkers, understanding of unknown glycan functions, and development of biopharmaceuticals.

Abstract
Glycosaminoglycan (GAG) fine structures from the same animal cells and tissues are controlled not only by the biosynthetic and metabolic enzymes but also by other environmental factors, such as chemicals, growth factors, nutritional factors, and isolation procedures. To facilitate direct quantitative comparison of disaccharide compositions from different GAG preparations, several stable isotope labeling strategies have been developed. In this report, 1-phenyl-3-methyl-5-pyrazolone (PMP) and deuterated d5-PMP are used for differential disaccharide labeling and profiling of chondroitin sulfate GAG by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) coupled with mass spectrometry (MS).

Abstract
As one of the most important post-translational modifications, glycosylation plays a pivotal role in many essential physiological functions, including cell recognition, signaling, and immune response. Thus, various qualitative and quantitative analytical strategies for glycomic profiling have been developed in recent decades. However, while extensive efforts have been devoted to the analysis of N-glycans, high-throughput quantitative analysis of O-glycans is often overlooked and underexplored. This is partially due to the lack of a universal enzyme for the release of O-glycans from the protein backbone. Furthermore, the traditional chemical releasing method suffers from severe side reactions and involves tedious sample preparation procedures. Here, a multiplexed isobaric labeling method enabled by N,N-dimethyl leucine containing pyrazolone analogue (DiLeuPMP) is introduced. This method combines the release and labeling of O-glycans in a one-pot reaction and achieves accurate MS2-based relative quantification with the ability to process four samples at a time. The method has been applied to core-1 O-glycan standard and three glycoproteins first, and the results demonstrated its validity. Following this proof-of-principle demonstration, we analyzed more complex biological specimen using human serum samples. Overall, this method provides an effective and reliable approach for the profiling and high-throughput quantitative analysis of O-glycans in complex samples.

Abstract
Protein glycosylation contributes to critical biological function of glycoproteins. Glycan analysis is essential for the production of biopharmaceuticals as well as for the identification of disease biomarkers. However, glycans are highly heterogeneous, which has considerably hampered the progress of glycomics. Here, we present an improved 96-well plate format platform for streamlined glycan profiling that takes advantage of rapid glycoprotein denaturation, deglycosylation, fluorescent derivatization, and on-matrix glycan clean-up. This approach offers high sensitivity with consistent identification and quantification of diverse N-glycans across multiple samples on a high-throughput scale. We demonstrate its capability for N-glycan profiling of glycoproteins from various sources, including two recombinant monoclonal antibodies produced from Chinese Hamster Ovary cells, EG2-hFc and rituximab, polyclonal antibodies purified from human serum, and total glycoproteins from human serum. Combined with the complementary information obtained by sequential digestion from exoglycosidase arrays, this approach allows the detection and identification of multiple N-glycans in these complex biological samples. The reagents, workflow, and Hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography with fluorescence detection (HILIC-FLD), are simple enough to be implemented into a straightforward user-friendly setup. This improved technology provides a powerful tool in support of rapid advancement of glycan analysis for biopharmaceutical development and biomarker discovery for clinical disease diagnosis.

Abstract
O-GalNAc type glycosylation is an abundant and complex protein modification. Recent developments in mass spectrometry resulted in significant success in quantitative analysis of O-GalNAc glycosylation. The analysis of released O-GalNAc type glycans expanded our horizons of understanding the glycome of various biological models. The site-specific analysis of glycosylation micro-heterogeneity of purified proteins opened perspectives for the improved design of glycoprotein therapeutics. Advanced gene editing and chemical technologies applied to O-glycoproteomics enabled to identify O-GalNAc glycosylation at unprecedented depth. Progress in the analysis of intact glycoproteins under native and reduced conditions enabled the monitoring of glycosylation proteoform variants. Despite of the astonishing results in quantitative O-GalNAc glycoproteomics, site-specific mapping of the full O-GalNAc structural repertoire in complex samples is yet a long way off. Here, we summarize the most common quantitative strategies in O-GalNAc glycoproteomics, review recent progress and discuss benefits and limitations of the various approaches in the field.

Abstract
N-glycans that are fluorescently tagged by glycosylamine acylation have become a promising way for glycan biomarker discovery. Here, we describe a simple and rapid method using Fmoc N-hydroxysuccinimide ester (Fmoc-OSu) to label N-glycans by reacting with their corresponding intermediate glycosylamines produced by microwave-assisted deglycosylation. After optimizing reaction conditions, this derivatization reaction can be effectively achieved under 40 °C for 1 h. Moreover, the comparison of fluorescent intensities for Fmoc-OSu, Fmoc-Cl and 2-AA labeling strategies were also performed. Among which, the fluorescent intensities of Fmoc-OSu labeled glycan derivatives were approximately 5 and 13 times higher than that labeled by Fmoc-Cl and 2-AA respectively. Furthermore, the developed derivatization strategy has also been applied for analyzing serum N-glycans, aiming to screen specific biomarkers for early diagnosis of lung squamous cell cancer. More interestingly, the preparation of free reducing N-glycan standards have been achieved by the combination of HPLC fraction of Fmoc labeled glycan derivatives and Fmoc releasing chemistry. Overall, this proposed method has the potential to be used in functional glycomic study.

Abstract
Electrochemical assay for analysis of cell surface glycan expression is reported. Mannose on human breast cancer cells (type MCF-7) is selected as the glycan model. Gold nanoparticles are modified with binding aptamer for MCF-7 cells and act as electrochemical probe. The analysis of cell surface glycan expression follows a traditional sandwich protocol. Concanavalin A that can specifically recognize mannose is immobilized onto MnO2 nanosheets modified electrode for the capture of MCF-7 cells. Then, the modified gold nanoparticles are immobilized onto the electrode via the binding between MCF-7 cell and aptamer on the gold nanoparticles. The aptamer on the gold nanoparticles reacts with molybdate. More specifically, the reaction of the phosphate backbone of aptamer with molybdate results in the formation of a redox-active molybdophosphate precipitate and generates an electrochemical current. The current intensity at 0.20 V (vs. Ag/AgCl) is recorded to test the linear range of the assay. The assay shows an obvious response to MCF-7 cells with a wide linear range from 1.0 × 103 to 1.0 × 106 cells mL-1 and a limit of detection down to 300 cells mL-1. The assay can be used to selectively monitor the change of mannose expression on cell surfaces upon the treatment with the N-glycan inhibitor. Graphical abstractSchematic of an electrochemical assay for analysis of cell surface glycan expression of MCF-7 cancer cells.

Abstract
Human milk oligosaccharides are complex carbohydrates with multibiofunctional health benefits to newborns. Human milk free oligosaccharides (HMOs) are well characterized. However, changes in the N/O-glycome during lactation are poorly reported. Herein, we qualitatively and quantitatively investigated N/O-glycome profiles and their alteration in human milk at different lactation stages. N-Glycans were mainly fucosylated and nonsialylated, nonfucosylated throughout lactation. O-Glycans mainly consisted of sialylated and nonsialylated, nonfucosylated in colostrum and transitional milk, and fucosylated and nonfucosylated, nonsialylated in mature milk. Fucosylated and sialylated N-glycans gradually decreased and increased, respectively, as lactation progressed; O-glycans showed the reverse. Interestingly, changes in HMO abundance decreased during lactation, complementing HMG N/O-glycome changes. In conclusion, temporal HMG glycosylation changes provide the groundwork for developing infant formula that is closer to breast milk at different lactation stages.
