Het protocol dat wij hier hebben ingediend kan de vergelijking van de N- glycan profielen van verschillende cultivars van radijs. Een belangrijk voordeel van deze methode ten opzichte van bestaande protocollen is dat geen wijzigingen van de buffer tussen de enzymatische vrijlating van N- glycanen en de reactie van de bewerking met 2-AB vereist zijn. De meest kritische stap van deze procedure is de zuivering van N- glycanen met behulp van de kolom van de SPE, als het niet verwijderen van zouten ...

N- glycanen in planten hebben meer aandacht getrokken in de afgelopen jaren, zoals het vorige onderzoek heeft N- glycanen onderstreept als een potentiële bron van immunologische kruisreacties die allergische reacties1,2 veroorzaken kunnen . Eerder is aangetoond dat de N- glycanen op plant glycoproteïnen katalytische activiteit3,4, thermostabiliteit en opvouwbare5,6 of subcellular localisatie kan beïnvloeden en secretie7. Om de correlatie tussen de glycan structuren en hun respectieve functies, moet N- glycanen eerst worden vrijgelaten uit glycoproteïnen enzymatisch of chemisch. De klassieke chemische methode voor het vrijgeven van zowel N- en O- glycanen is β-eliminatie, waarin alkalische monster behandeling gaat gepaard met vermindering met natriumboorhydride opbrengst van een alditol8. Echter, deze procedure verzet zich tegen labelen met een fluorophore en veroorzaakt aanzienlijke verval van monosaccharide eenheden vanaf het reducerende einde van de glycan-structuur. Chemische deglycosylation op basis van ammoniak hydroxide/carbonaat behandeling is ook een veelgebruikte alternatieve methode9. Geen van deze methoden van chemische release degradeert intact eiwitten, waardoor massaspectrometrische analyse van labelloze glycan zwembaden zonder tussenkomst van peptide fragmenten in het dezelfde massa bereik. Een nadeel van deze methoden is echter het tempo van de verhoogde afbraak van alpha1, 3-fucosylated- N- glycanen, een gemeenschappelijke structuur van de koolhydraten gevonden in planten10. Als alternatief, enzymatische release methoden met behulp van peptide:N- glycanases (PNGases, EG 3.5.1.52) worden ook op grote schaal toegepast. Recombinant PNGase F (van Flavobacterium meningosepticum) is de meest voorkomende keuze en vergunningen van de vrijlating van alle soorten N- glycanen, behalve de structuren met een core alpha1, 3 fucose11,12. Daarom, PNGase A (geïsoleerd uit amandel zaden) wordt meestal gebruikt voor de analyse van plantaardige N- glycanen13. Echter dit enzym deglycosylates alleen proteolytically afkomstige glycopeptiden, en niet deglycosylate native glycoproteïnen14. Vandaar, een scriptingregel monster workup is vereist voordat verdere analyse, waardoor uitgebreide verlies van glycanen, met name die van lage overvloed15. Het algemene doel van de methode is een geoptimaliseerde workflow voor N- glycan release en fluorescentie labelen op een eenvoudige en robuuste wijze presenteren. De onderliggende reden is dat de PNGase H+, die onlangs werd ontdekt in Terriglobus roseus en recombinantly kunnen worden uitgedrukt in E. coli, N- glycanen rechtstreeks vanaf de steiger van de eiwitten in zure kan hydrolyseren voorwaarden16. Een belangrijk voordeel van het gebruik van PNGase H+ over alternatieve methoden is dat TL labeling reacties in de hetzelfde reactiebuis kunnen worden uitgevoerd zonder de reactie buffers17,18. De eenvoudige bereiding voorwaarden en hoge herstel van lage-overvloed oligosacchariden maken van deze methode een waardevol hulpmiddel bij de analyse van N- glycanen. Dit protocol is geschikt voor de analyse van N- glycanen van verschillende plantensoorten.

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

In de afgelopen jaren hebben de koolhydraten wordt van planten veel aandacht, ontvangen aangezien zij een potentiële bron van cross-reactive, allergie stemmende immuunrespons. Bovendien, spelen koolhydraten structuren ook een cruciale rol in de stofwisseling van de plant. Hier presenteren we een eenvoudige en snelle methode voor het opstellen en analyseren van N- glycanen van verschillende cultivars van radijs (Raphanus sativus) met behulp van een N- glycanase specifiek voor de vrijlating van plantgerelateerde koolhydraten structuren. Om dit te bereiken, waren ruwe trichloorazijnzuur precipitaten van radijs homogenates behandeld met PNGase H+, en gelabeld met behulp van 2-aminobenzamide als een TL-tag. De gelabelde N- glycan monsters werden vervolgens geanalyseerd door ultra prestatie vloeistofchromatografie (UPLC) scheiding en laser matrix-bijgewoonde desorptie ionisatie-time van de vlucht (MALDI-TOF) massaspectrometrie voor een gedetailleerde structurele evaluatie en te kwantificeren van de relatieve abundanties van de radijs-afgeleide N- glycan structuren. Dit protocol kan ook worden gebruikt voor de analyse van N- glycanen uit verschillende andere plantensoorten en nuttig kan zijn voor de functie nader te onderzoeken en de gevolgen van de N- glycanen op de menselijke gezondheid.

Figuur 1 toont een schematisch overzicht van de beschreven protocol, met inbegrip van de isolatie van proteïnen (glyco-) van radijs, de voorbereiding van N- glycanen, de UPLC-analyse en de MALDI-TOF-MS-analyse van deze onderdelen. Figuur 2 toont representatieve UPLC chromatogrammen van derivatized N- glycanen van de geanalyseerde radijs cultivars. Figuur 3 toont de verkregen result...

Analysis of N-glycans from Raphanus sativus Cultivars Using PNGase H+

Analyse van N- glycanen Raphanus sativus Cultivars met behulp van PNGase H+

Beschrijven we een eenvoudige en snelle methode voor de voorbereiding en analyse van N- glycanen van verschillende cultivars van radijs (Raphanus sativus).

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.
