Title : Carbohydrate of the human
plasminogen variants
Abstract :
- III
- Structure of the O-glycosidically linked oligosaccharide unit
- The preceding two manuscripts in this issue (Hayes, M. L., and Castellino, F. J. (1979) J. Biol
- Chem
- 254, 8768-8771, 8772-8776) describe the isolation and characterization of glycopeptides from human plasminogen affinity chromatography variants 1 1 and 2
- Plasminogen variant 1 1 contains an asparagine288-based branched carbohydrate structure, which has been established in the immediately preceding manuscript
- This structure is absent in variant 2
- Plasminogen variants 1 1 and 2 contain a threonine-based glycoconjugate
- This latter structure has been established by combination of methylation data, glycosidase digestions, periodate oxidations, and Smith degradations of the beta-eliminated reduced oligosaccharides
- One glycopeptide unit, isolated from both plasminogen variants 1 1 (1D) and 2 (2D) possessed the following structure: Sia alpha 2 yields 3Gal beta 1 yields 3GalNAc- Thr
- The threonine was found to be residue 345 in the Glu- plasminogen sequence
- Another glycopeptide unit was also found to be present, in lower yields in both variants 1 1 (1E) and 2 (2E)
- The structure of this unit was: Sia alpha 2 yields 3Gal beta1 yields 3GalNAc- Thr
- : formula: (see text), alpha 2,6 Sia
- Again Thr 345 was the glycosylated amino acid
- The amino acid sequence around the glycosylated threonine was found to be NH2- Ala
- Pro.Thr(CHO)
- Ala.Pro.Pro.Glu
