我们在这里提出的协议允许比较不同品种的萝卜的n-糖剖面。与现有协议相比, 这种方法的一个显著优点是, 多糖的酶释放与 2 AB 的衍生反应之间没有缓冲的变化。这个过程最关键的步骤是用 SPE 柱纯化n-多糖, 因为在反应混合物中除去盐或其他杂质可能会对荧光衍生效率产生负面影响。此处提出的方法仅允许对不同的n-多糖的相对丰度进行评估;绝对量化需要在步骤2.1 中添...

近年来, 植物中的n-多糖引起了越来越多的关注, 因为先前的研究突出了n-多糖作为免疫交叉反应的潜在来源, 可能引发过敏反应1,2.此前已证明, 植物糖蛋白的n-多糖会影响催化活性3,4, 热稳定性和折叠5,6或亚细胞定位和分泌物7。为了使糖结构与它们各自的功能相关联, 多糖必须首先从化学或酶的糖蛋白中释放出来。经典的化学方法释放n-和O型多糖是β消除, 其中碱性样品处理是伴随着减少与硼氢化, 以产生一个糖醇8。然而, 这一过程排除了荧光的标记, 并导致单糖单位从糖结构的减少端显著衰减。基于氢氧化铵/碳酸盐处理的化学 deglycosylation 也是常用的替代方法9。这两种化学释放方法都没有降解完整的蛋白质, 这允许在不存在同质量范围内的肽片段干扰的情况下对未标记的糖池进行质谱分析。然而, 这些方法的一个缺点是增加的降解率α1,3-fucosylated n-多糖, 一个共同的碳水化合物结构发现在植物10。另外, 使用肽的酶释放方法:n-glycanases (PNGases, EC 3.5.1.52) 也被广泛应用。重组 PNGase F (从杆菌 meningosepticum) 是最常见的选择, 允许释放所有类型的n-多糖, 除了轴承核心α1,3 岩藻糖11,12的结构。因此, PNGase (从杏仁籽中分离) 通常用于植物n-多糖13的分析。然而, 这种酶 deglycosylates 只 proteolytically 衍生糖肽, 无法 deglycosylate 本族糖蛋白14。因此, 在进一步分析之前需要进行多步骤的抽样检查, 从而导致大量的多糖损失, 尤其是低丰度的15。该方法的总体目标是以简单、稳健的方式为n-糖发布和荧光标记提供一个优化的工作流。基本的基本原理是, 最近在Terriglobus 长春发现的 PNGase H+可以 recombinantly 表达在大肠杆菌中, 可以直接从蛋白质支架中水解n-多糖酸性情况16。使用 PNGase H+替代方法的一个关键优点是荧光标记反应可以在同一反应管内进行, 而不会改变反应缓冲器17,18。低丰寡糖的制备条件简单, 回收率高, 使该方法成为多糖分析的重要工具. 该协议适用于不同植物种类的n-多糖分析。

analysis of n-glycans from raphanus sativus cultivars using pngase h+

近年来, 植物的碳水化合物基团受到了相当大的关注, 因为它们是交叉反应, 引起过敏性免疫反应的潜在来源。此外, 碳水化合物结构在植物代谢中也起着至关重要的作用。在这里, 我们提出了一个简单和快速的方法, 以制备和分析不同品种的萝卜 (萝卜) 的n-多糖, 利用n-glycanase 的具体释放植物衍生碳水化合物结构。为了达到这一目的, 萝卜组织匀浆的粗乙酸酸沉淀处理 PNGase H+, 并标记使用 2-苯酰胺作为荧光标记。随后用超效液相色谱 (UPLC) 分离法和基质辅助激光解吸电离-飞行时间 (MALDI) 质谱法对糖样品进行了分析, 详细结构对萝卜衍生n-糖结构的相对 abundancies 进行评价和量化。该协议也可用于对不同植物种类的n-多糖进行分析, 对多糖对人体健康的作用和作用的进一步研究有一定的参考价值。

萝卜品种多糖的 PNGase 研究

本文介绍了一种简便、快速的方法, 对不同品种萝卜 (萝卜) 的n-多糖进行了制备和分析。

In recent years, the carbohydrate moieties of plants have received considerable attention, as they are a potential source of cross-reactive, ...

This method can help answer questions in the field of plant Glycoscience such as how N-glycans of plant origin can be quickly analyzed and characterized. The main advantage of this technique is that it doesn't require any buffer changes between the enzymatic release of N-glycans and the derivatization reactions with 2-aminobenzamide. Demonstrating the procedure will be miss Ya-Min Du, and miss Shen-Li Zhen;two graduate students from the Glycomics and Glycan Bioengineering Research Center at Nanjing Agricultural University.To begin isolating the proteins, use a kitchen blender to homogenize approximately 100 grams of fresh radish for ten minutes. Transfer the resulting slurry to a 50 milliliter centrifuge tube. Centrifuge at 14, 000 times gravity at four degrees Celsius for 20 minutes to remove the insoluble material.After this, carefully transfer the supernatant into a new 50 milliliter centrifuge tube. Add an equal amount of a two molar trichloroacetic acid solution. Centrifuge at 14, 000 times gravity at four degrees Celsius for 30 minutes.And then remove the supernatant. Wash the pellet with 20 milliliters of deionized water. Centrifuge again at 14, 000 times gravity at four degrees Celsius for five minutes to remove soluble oligosaccharides and polysaccharides.Then, re-suspend the pellet with one milliliter of deionized water. And transfer the protein solution to a fresh 1.5 milliliter centrifuge tube. To begin preparing the N-glycans, mix 50 microliters of the protein solution with 0.2 milliunits of recombinant PNGase H+in ten millimolar acetic acid.Incubate at 37 degrees Celsius for 12 hours. Then, centrifuge at 14, 000 times gravity for five minutes to remove the extra protein and enzyme. Transfer the supernatant to a fresh 1.5 milliliter centrifuge tube until ready to purify the N-glycans.To begin purifying the N-glycans, wash the solid phase extraction column with three milliliters of water. Activate the column by adding three milliliters of an 80 percent acetonitrile solution containing trifluoroacetic acid. Then, three milliliters of deionized water to equilibrate the column.Transfer the sample onto the column and discard the flow through. Wash the column by adding 1.5 milliliters of deionized water. Failure to remove salts and add impurities in the sample mixture may negatively impact the efficiency of the fluorescence derivatization reaction.Then, add 1.5 milliliters of an aqueous 20 percent acetonitrile solution containing 0.1 percent TFA to elute the N-glycans into a two milliliter tube. Remove the solvent by centrifugal evaporation at room temperature, evaporating until the sample is completely dry. To begin fluorescence derivatization of N-glycans, prepare the 2-AB solution as outlined in the text protocol.Add five microliters of the prepared 2-AB solution to the dried samples. Vortex until each sample is completely dissolved. Incubate at 65 degrees Celsius for two hours.After this, let the sample cool to room temperature for five minutes. Add five microliters of deionized water and 40 microliters of acetonitrile to the cooled sample. Centrifuge at 14, 000 times gravity for three minutes.Then, transfer 48 microliters of the resulting supernatant into a 300 microliter high recovery HPLC vial. Store at negative 20 degrees Celsius for up to one month or when ready to use. To begin profiling, use a standard UPLC system equipped with a hydrophobic interaction liquid chromatography UPLC glycan column and connect it to an online fluorescence detector to analyze the samples.Set the excitation and emission wavelengths to 330 nanometers and 420 nanometers, respectively. Set the column temperature to 60 degrees Celsius. Next, inject 45 microliters of the sample into the UPLC system.Elute the N-glycans by UPLC using retention times of 15 and 40 minutes. Using two milliliters centrifuge tubes collect each observed UPLC peak fraction. Then, use centrifugal evaporation to dry the samples.Inject approximately one picomole of 2-AB labeled dextran standard to calibrate the plant N-glycan profiling and to assign their elution times and to standardize glucose units. To begin MALDI-TOF analysis, dissolve the dried samples in five microliters of LCMS grade water. Mix one microliter of this solution with one microliter of ATT solution.Then, pipet this mixture into the MALDI-TOF sample carrier. After this, use a MALDI-TOF mass spectrometer instrument to analyze the samples as outlined in the text protocol. In this study, N-glycan profiles are compared from various cultivars of radish.Representative UPLC chromatograms show that derivatized N-glycans and the relative abundance of each and different radishes can be successfully analyzed through this process. After this, MALDI-TOF mass spectroscopy is used to analyze the structures of 2-AB derivatized N-glycans. Though this method can provide insight into the composition of N-glycans from different Raphanus sativus cultivars, it can also be applied to other systems such as peanuts or other allergenic plant species.Once mastered, samples can be prepared within two working days which already includes the UPLC analysis procedure. When attempting this procedure, it's important to remember that the solid phase extraction columns used to isolate the N-glycans are sufficiently moistened with distilled water prior to sample application. Otherwise, binding of N-glycans to the column may be hampered.For additional verification of N-glycan structures, other methods can also be used. This could be, for example, sequential exoglycosidase treatments or MALDI-TOF MS N based fragmentation techniques. After its development, this technique paved the way for researchers in the field of Glycoscience to explore the composition and function of plant N-glycans more rapidly.After watching this video, you should have a good understanding of how to prepare N-glycans from different cultivars of radish using PNGase H+and how to analyze the 2-aminobenzamide derivatives by UPLC. Don't forget that working with trifluoroacetic acid and trichloroacetic acid can be extremely hazardous and precautions such as wearing protective gear should always be taken while performing this procedure.
