Abstract
Glycosylation is described as a non-templated biosynthesis. Yet, the template-free premise is antithetical to the observation that different N-glycans are consistently placed at specific sites. It has been proposed that glycosite-proximal protein structures could constrain glycosylation and explain the observed microheterogeneity. Using site-specific glycosylation data, we trained a hybrid neural network to parse glycosites (recurrent neural network) and match them to feasible N-glycosylation events (graph neural network). From glycosite-flanking sequences, the algorithm predicts most human N-glycosylation events documented in the GlyConnect database and proposed structures corresponding to observed monosaccharide composition of the glycans at these sites. The algorithm also recapitulated glycosylation in Enhanced Aromatic Sequons, SARS-CoV-2 spike, and IgG3 variants, thus demonstrating the ability of the algorithm to predict both glycan structure and abundance. Thus, protein structure constrains glycosylation, and the neural network enables predictive in silico glycosylation of uncharacterized or novel protein sequences and genetic variants.

Abstract
Non-clear cell renal cell carcinomas (non-ccRCCs) encompass diverse malignant and benign tumors. Refinement of differential diagnosis biomarkers, markers for early prognosis of aggressive disease, and therapeutic targets to complement immunotherapy are current clinical needs. Multi-omics analyses of 48 non-ccRCCs compared with 103 ccRCCs reveal proteogenomic, phosphorylation, glycosylation, and metabolic aberrations in RCC subtypes. RCCs with high genome instability display overexpression of IGF2BP3 and PYCR1. Integration of single-cell and bulk transcriptome data predicts diverse cell-of-origin and clarifies RCC subtype-specific proteogenomic signatures. Expression of biomarkers MAPRE3, ADGRF5, and GPNMB differentiates renal oncocytoma from chromophobe RCC, and PIGR and SOSTDC1 distinguish papillary RCC from MTSCC. This study expands our knowledge of proteogenomic signatures, biomarkers, and potential therapeutic targets in non-ccRCC.

Abstract
Microflow porous graphitized carbon liquid chromatography (PGC-LC) combined with negative mode ionization mass spectrometry (MS) provides high resolution separation and identification of reduced native N-glycan structural isomers. However, insufficient spray quality and low ionization efficiency of N-glycans present challenges for negative mode electrospray. Here, we evaluated the performance of a recently developed multinozzle electrospray source (MnESI) and accompanying M3 emitter for microflow PGC-LC-MS analysis of N-glycans in negative mode. In comparison to a standard electrospray ionization source, the MnESI with an M3 emitter improves signal intensity, identification, quantification, and resolution of structural isomers to accommodate low-input samples.

Abstract
Comparative "omics" studies have revealed unique aspects of human neurobiology, yet an evolutionary perspective of the brain N-glycome is lacking. We performed multiregional characterization of rat, macaque, chimpanzee, and human brain N-glycomes using chromatography and mass spectrometry and then integrated these data with complementary glycotranscriptomic data. We found that, in primates, the brain N-glycome has diverged more rapidly than the underlying transcriptomic framework, providing a means for rapidly generating additional interspecies diversity. Our data suggest that brain N-glycome evolution in hominids has been characterized by an overall increase in complexity coupled with a shift toward increased usage of α(2-6)-linked N-acetylneuraminic acid. Moreover, interspecies differences in the cell type expression pattern of key glycogenes were identified, including some human-specific differences, which may underpin this evolutionary divergence. Last, by comparing the prenatal and adult human brain N-glycomes, we uncovered region-specific neurodevelopmental pathways that lead to distinct spatial N-glycosylation profiles in the mature brain.

Abstract
Glycosylation is a common post-translational modification of brain proteins including cell surface adhesion molecules, synaptic proteins, receptors and channels, as well as intracellular proteins, with implications in brain development and functions. Using advanced state-of-the-art glycomics and glycoproteomics technologies in conjunction with glycoinformatics resources, characteristic glycosylation profiles in brain tissues are increasingly reported in the literature and growing evidence shows deregulation of glycosylation in central nervous system disorders, including aging associated neurodegenerative diseases. Glycan signatures characteristic of brain tissue are also frequently described in cerebrospinal fluid due to its enrichment in brain-derived molecules. A detailed structural analysis of brain and cerebrospinal fluid glycans collected in publications in healthy and neurodegenerative conditions was undertaken and data was compiled to create a browsable dedicated set in the GlyConnect database of glycoproteins (https://glyconnect.expasy.org/brain). The shared molecular composition of cerebrospinal fluid with brain enhances the likelihood of novel glycobiomarker discovery for neurodegeneration, which may aid in unveiling disease mechanisms, therefore, providing with novel therapeutic targets as well as diagnostic and progression monitoring tools.

Abstract
Milk oligosaccharides (MOs) are among the most abundant constituents of breast milk and are essential for health and development. Biosynthesized from monosaccharides into complex sequences, MOs differ considerably between taxonomic groups. Even human MO biosynthesis is insufficiently understood, hampering evolutionary and functional analyses. Using a comprehensive resource of all published MOs from >100 mammals, we develop a pipeline for generating and analyzing MO biosynthetic networks. We then use evolutionary relationships and inferred intermediates of these networks to discover (1) systematic glycome biases, (2) biosynthetic restrictions, such as reaction path preference, and (3) conserved biosynthetic modules. This allows us to prune and pinpoint biosynthetic pathways despite missing information. Machine learning and network analysis cluster species by their milk glycome, identifying characteristic sequence relationships and evolutionary gains/losses of motifs, MOs, and biosynthetic modules. These resources and analyses will advance our understanding of glycan biosynthesis and the evolution of breast milk.

One-Sentence Summary Evolution of the human brain N-glycome has been marked by an increase in complexity and a shift in sialic acid linkage.

Abstract
Glycosylation is a post-translational modification that affects the stability, structure, antigenicity and charge of proteins. In the immune system, glycosylation is involved in the regulation of ligand-receptor interactions, such as in B-cell and T-cell activating receptors. Alterations in glycosylation have been described in several autoimmune diseases, such as systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), in which alterations have been found mainly in the glycosylation of B lymphocytes, T lymphocytes and immunoglobulins. In immunoglobulin G of lupus patients, a decrease in galactosylation, sialylation, and nucleotide fucose, as well as an increase in the N-acetylglucosamine bisector, are observed. These changes in glycoisolation affect the interactions of immunoglobulins with Fc receptors and are associated with pericarditis, proteinuria, nephritis, and the presence of antinuclear antibodies. In T cells, alterations have been described in the glycosylation of receptors involved in activation, such as the T cell receptor; these changes affect the affinity with their ligands and modulate the binding to endogenous lectins such as galectins. In T cells from lupus patients, a decrease in galectin 1 binding is observed, which could favor activation and reduce apoptosis. Furthermore, these alterations in glycosylation correlate with disease activity and clinical manifestations, and thus have potential use as biomarkers. In this review, we summarize findings on glycosylation alterations in SLE and how they relate to immune system defects and their clinical manifestations.

Toolbox Accelerating Glycomics (TAG): Improving Large-Scale Serum Glycomics and Refinement to Identify SALSA-Modified and Rare Glycans. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms232113097. [PMID: 36361885 PMCID: PMC9656093 DOI: 10.3390/ijms232113097] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/08/2022] [Revised: 10/13/2022] [Accepted: 10/21/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Glycans are involved in many fundamental cellular processes such as growth, differentiation, and morphogenesis. However, their broad structural diversity makes analysis difficult. Glycomics via mass spectrometry has focused on the composition of glycans, but informatics analysis has not kept pace with the development of instrumentation and measurement techniques. We developed Toolbox Accelerating Glycomics (TAG), in which glycans can be added manually to the glycan list that can be freely designed with labels and sialic acid modifications, and fast processing is possible. In the present work, we improved TAG for large-scale analysis such as cohort analysis of serum samples. The sialic acid linkage-specific alkylamidation (SALSA) method converts differences in linkages such as α2,3- and α2,6-linkages of sialic acids into differences in mass. Glycans modified by SALSA and several structures discovered in recent years were added to the glycan list. A routine to generate calibration curves has been implemented to explore quantitation. These improvements are based on redefinitions of residues and glycans in the TAG List to incorporate information on glycans that could not be attributed because it was not assumed in the previous version of TAG. These functions were verified through analysis of purchased sera and 74 spectra with linearity at the level of R2 > 0.8 with 81 estimated glycan structures obtained including some candidate of rare glycans such as those with the N,N’-diacetyllactosediamine structure, suggesting they can be applied to large-scale analyses.

Abstract
Abstract
Glycosylation is the most common post-translational modification of proteins, and glycosylation changes at cell surfaces are frequently associated with malignant epithelia including head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). In HNSCC, 5-year survival remains poor, averaging around 50% globally: this is partly related to late diagnosis. Specific protein glycosylation signatures on malignant keratinocytes have promise as diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers and as therapeutic targets. Nevertheless, HNSCC-specific glycome is to date largely unknown. Herein, we tested six established HNSCC cell lines to capture the qualitative and semi-quantitative N-glycome using porous graphitized carbon liquid chromatography coupled to electrospray ionisation tandem mass spectrometry. Oligomannose-type N-glycans were the predominant features in all HNSCC cell lines analysed (57.5–70%). The levels of sialylated N-glycans showed considerable cell line-dependent differences ranging from 24 to 35%. Importantly, α2-6 linked sialylated N-glycans were dominant across most HNSCC cell lines except in SCC-9 cells where similar levels of α2-6 and α2-3 sialylated N-glycans were observed. Furthermore, we found that HPV-positive cell lines contained higher levels of phosphorylated oligomannose N-glycans, which hint towards an upregulation of lysosomal pathways. Almost all fucose-type N-glycans carried core-fucose residues with just minor levels (< 4%) of Lewis-type fucosylation identified. We also observed paucimannose-type N-glycans (2–5.5%), though in low levels. Finally, we identified oligomannose N-glycans carrying core-fucose residues and confirmed their structure by tandem mass spectrometry. This first systematic mapping of the N-glycome revealed diverse and specific glycosylation features in HNSCC, paving the way for further studies aimed at assessing their possible diagnostic relevance.

Abstract
Artificial intelligence (AI) methods have been and are now being increasingly integrated in prediction software implemented in bioinformatics and its glycoscience branch known as glycoinformatics. AI techniques have evolved in the past decades, and their applications in glycoscience are not yet widespread. This limited use is partly explained by the peculiarities of glyco-data that are notoriously hard to produce and analyze. Nonetheless, as time goes, the accumulation of glycomics, glycoproteomics, and glycan-binding data has reached a point where even the most recent deep learning methods can provide predictors with good performance. We discuss the historical development of the application of various AI methods in the broader field of glycoinformatics. A particular focus is placed on shining a light on challenges in glyco-data handling, contextualized by lessons learnt from related disciplines. Ending on the discussion of state-of-the-art deep learning approaches in glycoinformatics, we also envision the future of glycoinformatics, including development that need to occur in order to truly unleash the capabilities of glycoscience in the systems biology era.

Abstract
Human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs) form the third most abundant component of human milk and are known to convey several benefits to the neonate, including protection from viral and bacterial pathogens, training of the immune system, and influencing the gut microbiome. As HMO production during lactation is driven by enzymes that are common to other glycosylation processes, we adapted a model of mucin-type GalNAc-linked glycosylation enzymes to act on free lactose. We identified a subset of 11 enzyme activities that can account for 206 of 226 distinct HMOs isolated from human milk and constructed a biosynthetic reaction network that identifies 5 new core HMO structures. A comparison of monosaccharide compositions demonstrated that the model was able to discriminate between two possible groups of intermediates between major subnetworks, and to assign possible structures to several previously uncharacterised HMOs. The effect of enzyme knockouts is presented, identifying β-1,4-galactosyltransferase and β-1,3-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase as key enzyme activities involved in the generation of the observed HMO glycosylation patterns. The model also provides a synthesis chassis for the most common HMOs found in lactating mothers.

Abstract
Glycans are fundamental cellular building blocks, involved in many organismal functions. Advances in glycomics are elucidating the essential roles of glycans. Still, it remains challenging to properly analyze large glycomics datasets, since the abundance of each glycan is dependent on many other glycans that share many intermediate biosynthetic steps. Furthermore, the overlap of measured glycans can be low across samples. We address these challenges with GlyCompare, a glycomic data analysis approach that accounts for shared biosynthetic steps for all measured glycans to correct for sparsity and non-independence in glycomics, which enables direct comparison of different glycoprofiles and increases statistical power. Using GlyCompare, we study diverse N-glycan profiles from glycoengineered erythropoietin. We obtain biologically meaningful clustering of mutant cell glycoprofiles and identify knockout-specific effects of fucosyltransferase mutants on tetra-antennary structures. We further analyze human milk oligosaccharide profiles and find mother’s fucosyltransferase-dependent secretor-status indirectly impact the sialylation. Finally, we apply our method on mucin-type O-glycans, gangliosides, and site-specific compositional glycosylation data to reveal tissues and disease-specific glycan presentations. Our substructure-oriented approach will enable researchers to take full advantage of the growing power and size of glycomics data. Glycomics can uncover important molecular changes but measured glycans are highly interconnected and incompatible with common statistical methods, introducing pitfalls during analysis. Here, the authors develop an approach to identify glycan dependencies across samples to facilitate comparative glycomics.

Abstract
Characteristically, cells must sense and respond to environmental cues. Despite the importance of cell-cell communication, our understanding remains limited and often lacks glycans. Glycans decorate proteins and cell membranes at the cell-environment interface, and modulate intercellular communication, from development to pathogenesis. Providing further challenges, glycan biosynthesis and cellular behavior are co-regulating systems. Here, we discuss how glycosylation contributes to extracellular responses and signaling. We further organize approaches for disentangling the roles of glycans in multicellular interactions using newly available datasets and tools, including glycan biosynthesis models, omics datasets, and systems-level analyses. Thus, emerging tools in big data analytics and systems biology are facilitating novel insights on glycans and their relationship with multicellular behavior.

Abstract
Glycoproteomics is unquestionably on the rise and its current development benefits from past experience in proteomics, in particular when attending to bioinformatics needs. An extensive range of software solutions is available, but the reproducibility of mass spectrometry data processing remains challenging. One of the key issues in running automated glycopeptide identification software is the selection of a reference glycan composition file. The default choices are often too broad, and a fastidious literature search to properly target this selection can be avoided. This chapter suggests the use of GlyConnect Compozitor to collect relevant information on glycosylation in a given tissue or cell line and shape an appropriate glycan composition set that can be input in the majority of search engines accommodating user-defined compositions.
