Title : N-Glycosylation profiling of recombinant mouse extracellular superoxide dismutase produced in Chinese hamster ovary cells

Abstract :
  1. Extracellular superoxide dismutase ( EC-SOD ), the major SOD isoenzyme in biological fluids, is known to be N-glycosylated and heterogeneous as was detected in most glycoproteins
  2. However, only one N-glycan structure has been reported in recombinant human EC-SOD produced in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells
  3. Thus, a precise N-glycan profile of the recombinant EC-SOD is not available
  4. In this study, we report profiling of the N-glycan in the recombinant mouse EC-SOD produced in CHO cells using high-resolution techniques, including the liberation of N-glycans by treatment with PNGase F , fluorescence labeling by pyridylamination, characterization by anion-exchange, normal and reversed phase-HPLC separation, and mass spectrometry
  5. We succeeded in identifying 26 different types of N-glycans in the recombinant enzyme
  6. The EC-SOD N-glycans were basically core-fucosylated (98.3% of the total N-glycan content), and were high mannose sugar chain, and mono-, bi-, tri-, and tetra-antennary complex sugar chains exhibiting varying degrees of sialylation
  7. Four of the identified N-glycans were uniquely modified with a sulfate group, a Lewis(x) structure, or an α-Gal epitope
  8. The findings will shed new light on the structure-function relationships of EC-SOD N-glycans
