Abstract
- A processing The processing pathway of N-glycans in Carica papaya was deduced from the structures of N-glycans. The N-glycans were liberated by hydrazinolysis followed by N-acetylation. Their reducing-end sugar residues were tagged with 2-aminopyridine and the pyridylamino (PA-) sugar chains thus obtained were purified by HPLC. Eleven PA-sugar chains were found, and their structures were analyzed by two-dimensional sugar mapping combined with partial acid hydrolysis and exoglycosidase digestion. The structures of the N-glycans were of the highmsnnose types with xylose and fucose; however, among them two new N-glycans, Manα1-6(Manα1-3)Manα1-6(Xylβ1-2)Manβ1-4GlcNAcβ1-4(Fucα1-3)GlcNAc and Manα1-3Manα1-6(Xylβ1-2)Manβ1-4GlcNAcβ1-4(Fucα1-3)GlcNAc, were found. Judging from these structures together with Manα1-6(Manα1-3)Manα1-6(Manα1-3)(Xylβ1-2)Manβ1-4GlcNAcβ1-4(Fucα1-3)GlcNAc reported previously [Shimazaki, A., Makino, Y., Omichi, K., Odani, S., and Hase, S. (1999) J. Biochem. 125, 560–565], a processing pathway for N-glycans in C. papaya is inferred in which the activity of Golgi α-mannosidase II is incomplete. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
