    Notes: Abstract A series of repeating unit oligomers $$\begin{gathered} \alpha - GlcUA \hfill \\ 1 \downarrow 3 \hfill \\ [ \to 4) - \beta - Man - (1 \to 4) - \alpha - Glc - (1 \to 3) - \beta - Glc - (1 \to ]_n , 1 \leqslant n \leqslant 7 , \hfill \\ \end{gathered} $$ was prepared by depolymerization ofKlebsiella pneumoniae B5055 (01∶K2) capsular polysaccharide (K2-PS) as catalyzed by a bacteriophage-associated glycanase. The monomeric repeating unit [tetrasaccharide, (TS)] and its di- and trimer [octa- and dodecasaccharide (OS and DS)] were conjugated to edestin via reductive aminophenylation and azo coupling at the reducing sugar end group. Rabbit anti-conjugate and anti-bacterial antibodies raised in rabbits were compared with respect to specificity and crossreactivity towards the oligomers of the various molecular sizes, towards parent PS, and towards whole bacteria. Antibodies able to bind specifically to the PS and the bacteria were elicited by all three conjugates. However, the anti-TS conjugate antibodies, in contrast to those obtained with OS and DS conjugate, proved to be practically unable to effect bacterial agglutination. Correspondingly, the TS played an exceptional role in binding to anti-bacterial antibodies. In contrast to the OS and DS it could not fully inhibit precipitation of these antibodies with the bacterial PS. Moreover, the inhibition of the binding of the PS to antibacterial antibodies produced by TS was about 50-fold weaker than that produced by OS, DS, and higher members of the series, all of which were about equally potent inhibitors (on a molar basis). The results show that two repeating units are the minimum requirement for a substantial representation of the PS's serologic specificity. The exceptional behavior of the TS correlates with its lack of theβ-Glc-(1–4)-Man linkage present in all higher members of the series.

    Notes: Abstract Fowl plague virus, strain Dutch, was metabolically labeled withd-[2-3H]mannose, or withd-[6-3H]glucosamine, and the small subunit (HA2; 0.8 mg in total) of the viral hemagglutinin was isolated by preparative sodium dodecylsulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. After proteolytic digestion, the radioactive oligosaccharides were sequentially liberated from the glycopeptides by treatment with different endo-β-N-acetylglucosaminidases and with peptide:N-glycosidase or, finally, by hydrazinolysis. In this manner, four groups of glycans could be obtained by consecutive gel filtrations and were subfractionated by HPLC. The structures of the individual oligosaccharides were analyzed by micromethylation, by acetolysis or by digestion with exoglycosidases. The major species amongst the high mannose glycans at Ans-406 of the viral glycopolypeptide were found to be Manα1-2Manα1-3(Manα1-2Manα1-6)Manα1-6(Manα1-2Manα1-2Manα1-3)Manβ1-4GlcNacβ1-4GlcNAc and Manα1-3(Manα1-2Manα1-6)Manα1-6(Manα1-2Manα1-2Manα1-3)Manβ1-4GlcNAcβ1-4GlcNAc, while the complex glycans at Asn-478 are predominantly GlcNAcβ1-2Manα1-3(GlcNAcβ1-2Manα1-6)Manβ1-4GlcNAcβ1-4GlcNAc (lacking, in part, one of the outerN-acetylglucosamine residues) and GlcNAcβ1-2Manα1-3(Galβ1-4GlcNAcβ1-2Manα1-6)Manβ1-4GlcNAcβ1-4GlcNAc.

    Notes: Abstract Normal rat kidney cells, non-productively infected with the anaemia-inducing variant of Friend spleen focus-forming virus (F-SFFVA), were metabolically labelled with [2-3H]mannose. The primary translation product of the viral envelope gene (env), representing a glycoprotein with an apparent molecularM r of 55 000 (gp55), was isolated from cell lysates by immunoaffinity chromatography and purified by preparative SDS/PAGE. Radiolabelled oligosaccharides, released from tryptic glycopeptides by treatment with endo-β-N-acetylglucosaminidase H, were characterized chromatographically, by enzymic digestion and by acetolysis. The results revealed that F-SFFVA gp55 obtained from this source carried predominantly oligomannose type sugar chains with five to nine mannoses. As a characteristic feature, glycans with seven to nine mannoses contained, in part, an additional glucose residue. Although the amount of glucosylated species found was higher in F-SFFVA gp55 (about 25% of total endo-H-sensitive oligosaccharides) than in gp55 of the corresponding polycythaemia-inducing variant (F-SFFVP, 16.3%), the overall glycosylation pattern of the F-SFFVA env product closely resembled that of F-SFFVP gp55 [Strubeet al. (1988)J Biol Chem 263:3762–71]. Hence, our results demonstrate that the different intracellular processing and transport of the primary F-SFFVA env product cannot be attributed to aberrant trimming of its oligomannose type glycans.

    Notes: Abstract Neutral complex-type N-glycans of the envelope glycoprotein 120 of HIV-2, propagated in different host cells, display cell-type specific variations. In order to identify typical structural elements, glycans were analysed by gel filtration, by enzymic sequencing and, in part, by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry. The characteristic substituents of di- tri- and tetraantennary carbohydrate units thus observed include N-acetyllactosamine repeats, bisecting N-acetylglucosamine and fucose linked to the chitobiose core as well as to N-acetyllactosamine antennae. Each glycoprotein preparation displayed a characteristic set of glycoforms.

    Notes: A series of high-mannose and complex type glycoprotein-N-glycans was subjected to high-pH anion-exchange chromatography. The results revealed that this method represents a useful tool for analytical characterization of single oligosaccharides as well as preparative separation of complex mixtures of carbohydrate side-chains. On the other hand, it became evident that in several cases a combination of different chromatographic techniques is required for efficient separation of individual oligosaccharide species.
