چکیده

Endo-P-N-acetylglucosaminidase C,, hydrolyzes 75% of ovalbumin glycopeptide III, while endo+N-acetylglucosaminidase H cleaves it completely. For the purpose of clarifying the difference of substrate specificities of C,, and H enzymes, the structures of the oligosaccharides released from the glycopeptide by these enzymes were studied. The oligosaccharides released by C,, enzyme were Mancul + 6 (Mancul + 3)Mancul -+ G(GlcNAcfi1 ---3 ZManal + 3) (GlcNAc/31+ 4)Man/31+ 4GlcNAc and Manal-+ ZMancYl --) G(Mancu1 + 3)Manal+ 6 (Mancul -2Mancul+ 3)Manpl + 4GlcNAc. Additional oligosaccharide, Mancul -+ 3Mancul + G[GlcNAc/312(GlcNAc/31+ 4) Manal--+ 31 (GlcNAcfil + 4)Manfil + 4GlcNAc, was released by H enzyme action. From these results, the important role of the cy-mannosyl residue linked at the C-3 position of the branching p-mannose for C,, enzyme action has become evident.

Antibody recognition of a unique tumor-specific glycopeptide antigen.

Aberrant glycosylation and the overexpression of certain carbohydrate moieties is a consistent feature of cancers, and tumor-associated oligosaccharides are actively investigated as targets for immunotherapy. One of the most common aberrations in glycosylation patterns is the presentation of a single O-linked N-acetylgalactosamine on a threonine or serine residue known as the "Tn antigen." Wher...

Glycopeptide from Ovalbumin

1. The structure of the carbohydrate component of the glycopeptide isolated from the proteolytic digest of ovalbumin has been investigated by chemical and enzymic methods. 2. The results are consistent with the presence of a single carbohydrate prosthetic group, linked through its reducing end group to the peptide chain. 3. Further, all the 2-amino-2-deoxy-D-glucose units appear to be in the N-...

MHC-restricted, glycopeptide-specific T cells show specificity for both carbohydrate and peptide residues.

We examined the antigenic specificity of two T cell hybridomas elicited against the disaccharide galabiose attached to the fifth residue of the I-Ak binding peptide 52-61 of lysozyme. By making changes in the saccharide molecule and in the peptide, we conclude that the outer galactose residue of the galabiose moiety is directly recognized by the T cells together with the exposed side chains of ...
