Structural elucidation of a variety of GalNAc-containing N-linked oligosaccharides from human urinary kallidinogenase
Fifteen different structures of terminal GalNAc-containing N-linked oligosaccharides from human urinary kallidinogenase have been identified. These N-linked oligosaccharides were mostly neutral, because sialic acid content was lower than 0.13 mol of sialic acid/mol of sugar chain, and sulfate was no...

Summary: | Fifteen different structures of terminal GalNAc-containing N-linked oligosaccharides from human urinary kallidinogenase have
been identified. These N-linked oligosaccharides were mostly neutral, because sialic acid content was lower than 0.13 mol
of sialic acid/mol of sugar chain, and sulfate was not detected. The oligosaccharides were released from pepsin-digested protein
by glycoamidase A (from almond) digestion. The reducing ends of the oligosaccharide chains were aminated with a fluorescent
reagent, 2-aminopyridine. The resulting mixture of pyridylamino derivatives of the oligosaccharides were separated by high
performance liquid chromatography on an ODS-silica column, and 15 oligosaccharides were isolated. The structure of each oligosaccharide
fraction was analyzed by two-dimensional sugar mapping, component sugar analysis, high resolution proton nuclear magnetic
resonance and methylation analysis. It was found that each N-linked oligosaccharide associated with human urinary kallidinogenase
contains unsubstituted GalNAc residues at the nonreducing terminal. These 15 oligosaccharides include 5 biantennary, 7 triantennary,
and 3 tetraantennary oligosaccharides. |
