Sensitive Liquid Chromatography-Electrospray Mass Spectrometry Allows for the Analysis of the <italic>O</italic>-Glycosylation of Immunoprecipitated Proteins from Cells or Tissues: Application to MUC1 Glycosylation in Cancer
نویسندگان
چکیده
We have analyzed the structures of the glycans on immunoprecipitated proteins from small amounts of cell or tissue lysates, by liquid-chromatography electrospray mass spectrometry (LC-ESI-MS) and MS/MS. The sensitive and specific method was applied to the analysis of the O-glycosylation of MUC1 in breast, prostate and gastric cancer, including analysis of a patient tumor specimen. The method will be applicable for the glycosylation analysis of individual proteins.

متن کاملVariation of Human Salivary O-Glycome
The study of saliva O-glycosylation is receiving increasing attention due to the potential of glycans for disease biomarkers, but also due to easy access and non-invasive collection of saliva as biological fluid. Saliva is rich in glycoproteins which are secreted from the bloodstream or produced by salivary glands. Mucins, which are highly O-glycosylated proteins, are particularly abundant in h...
متن کاملN-Glycosylation of the MUC1 mucin in epithelial cells and secretions.
The MUC1 mucin is an important tumor-associated antigen that shows extensive glycosylation in vivo. The O-glycosylation of this molecule, which has been well characterized in many cell types and tissues, is important in conferring the unusual biochemical and biophysical properties on a mucin. N-Glycosylation is crucial to the folding, sorting, membrane trafficking, and secretion of many protein...
متن کاملThe O-Linked Glycome and Blood Group Antigens ABO on Mucin-Type Glycoproteins in Mucinous and Serous Epithelial Ovarian Tumors
BACKGROUND Mucins are heavily O-glycosylated proteins where the glycosylation has been shown to play an important role in cancer. Normal epithelial ovarian cells do not express secreted mucins, but their abnormal expression has previously been described in epithelial ovarian cancer and may relate to tumor formation and progression. The cyst fluids were shown to be a rich source for acidic glyco...
