Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Purified mAb CO17 and mAbP COK were treated with pepsin to digest the protein into glycopeptides, and digested peptides were passed through a C18 sep-pak cartridge (Waters, Lexington, MA). The samples were washed with 5% acetic acid to remove contaminants such as salts and free glycans. The fraction was eluted in series solutions with 20, 40, and 100% iso-propanol, and the eluted fractions were dried using a speed vaccum dryer. To release N-glycans, PNGase A (Roche, Basel, Switzerland) was added to each sample and incubated overnight at 37°C. The released N-glycans were purified using a graphitized carbon resin (Alltech, Lexington, MA). Purified glycans were resolubilized in HPLC water, spotted onto a stainless steel test plate, and treated by 0.8 μL of 50 mg·mL-1 2,5-dihydroxybenzoic acid in 50% acetonitrile. The spot was rapidly dried under vacuum for more homogenous crystallization. Analysis was carried out by MALDI-TOF MS using a Bruker ultrafleXtreme system.

For N-glycan analysis, 1–2 μg of purified BmVAL-1 was reduced and denatured for 10 min at 95 °C in PBS containing 1.3% (w/v) SDS and 0.1% (v/v) β-mercaptoethanol. SDS was neutralized by adding 2% (v/v) NP-40 prior to overnight digestion at 37°C with trypsin (Sigma-Aldrich, USA), immobilized to N-hydroxysuccinimide-activated sepharose (GE Healthcare). trypsin beads were removed from the digestion mix by centrifugation and the pH of the mix was adjusted to 5 using 1 M sodium acetate. PNGase A (0.5 mU; Roche, Switzerland) was used to release N-glycans from BmVAL-1 while incubating overnight at 37°C. The incubation mixture was applied to C18 Bakerbond SPE cartridges (JT Baker, USA) and the N-glycans were extracted from the flow-through on Extract Clean Carbo SPE columns. Eluted N-glycans were labeled with anthranilic acid (Sigma-Aldrich) and desalted by hydrophilic interaction chromatography on Biogel P10 (BioRad, USA). Samples in 75% acetonitrile were mixed with 1 μl of matrix solution (20 mg/ml 2,5-dihydroxybenzoic acid in 50% (v/v) acetonitrile, 0.1% (v/v) trifluoroacetic acid) and were dried under a stream of warm air. Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) time-of-flight mass spectra (MS) were obtained using an Ultraflex II mass spectrometer (Bruker Daltonics, USA).

Purified recombinant protein samples were first digested into glycopeptides using pepsin, as previously described [26 (link),48 (link)]. From the glycopeptides, N-glycan was released using PNGase A (Roche, Basel, Switzerland). The released N-glycans were purified using graphitized carbon resin from Carbograph (Alltech). The purified glycans were re-dissolved in a mixture of 90 μL dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), 2.7 μL water, and 35 μL iodomethane for solid phase permethylation while using a spin column method [49 (link)]. The resulting permethylated glycans were mixed in equal volumes with 10 mg/mL 2,5-dihydroxybenzoic acid that was prepared in 1 mM of a sodium acetate solution. The mixture was applied onto a matrix-assisted laser-desorption-ionization (MALDI) MSP96 ground steel target plate and dried for MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry. All of the mass spectra were acquired at an acceleration voltage of 20 kV.

Cellular or larval homogenates were proteolysed either with thermolysin in the case of the larvae or pepsin in the case of High Five cells (20 (link)–22 (link)), prior to cation exchange and gel filtration chromatography of the proteolysate. Thereafter, N-glycans were released from glycopeptides using peptide:N-glycosidase F (PNGase F; Roche) as previously described (21 (link),22 (link)), with a subsequent digestion of the remaining glycopeptides using peptide:N-glycosidase A (PNGase A; Roche). After an initial purification by cation-exchange chromatography (Dowex AG50; flow-through), the glycans were subject to solid-phase extraction on non-porous graphitised carbon (SupelClean ENVICarb, Sigma-Aldrich) as described (22 (link),23 (link)); the ‘neutral’ and ‘anionic-enriched’ fractions were subsequently eluted with 40% acetonitrile and 40% acetonitrile containing 0.1% trifluoroacetic acid respectively. The pools of glycans were then subjected to reductive amination using 2-aminopyridine (PA) (21 (link)). Refer to the Supplement for a Scheme depicting the workflow as well as for further explanations regarding the glycomic analyses and assignments (see also Ref. 22 (link)).

After homogenisation followed by proteolysis with pepsin, glycopeptides were enriched by cation-exchange chromatography and gel filtration; N-glycans were then released using peptide:N-glycosidase F (PNGase F; Roche) as previously described [15 (link)], with a subsequent digestion of remaining glycopeptides using peptide:N-glycosidase A (PNGase A; Roche), or with PNGase A alone. N-glycans were prepared at least twice from each stage/gender from independent biological samples. Alternatively, samples were subject to hydrazinolysis as described below (see also the Scheme in the Supplement).

The HILIC enrichment of N-glycopeptides was processed as described with minor modifications [37 (link),38 (link)]. Briefly, the peptide fractions were equilibrated in 40 μL loading buffer (80% acetonitrile/1% trifluoroacetic acid), then pipetted into a tip containing HILIC beads (4 μm, 100 Å) (Dalian Institute of Chemical Physics, Dalian, China). After centrifugation at 4,000 g for 15 minutes, the glycopeptides were retained in the tip. Then, the HILIC tip was washed with 40 μL of loading buffer three times to remove the residual non-glycopeptides by centrifugation. The enriched glycopeptides were then eluted with 80 μL H2O and lyophilized by vacuum centrifugation. Finally, two hundred units of PNGase F (New England Biolabs, Ipswich, England) and PNGase A (Roche, Basel, Switzerland) in 50 μL 40 mM NH4HCO3 dissolved in H218O was applied to the samples and incubated overnight at 37°C for deglycosylation.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
