Quantitative glycoproteomics reveals new classes of STT3A- and STT3B-dependent N-glycosylation sites.

ABSTRACT: Human cells express two oligosaccharyltransferase complexes (STT3A and STT3B) with partially overlapping functions. The STT3A complex interacts directly with the protein translocation channel to mediate cotranslational glycosylation, while the STT3B complex can catalyze posttranslocational glycosylation. We used a quantitative glycoproteomics procedure to compare glycosylation of roughly 1,000 acceptor sites in wild type and mutant cells. Analysis of site occupancy data disclosed several new classes of STT3A-dependent acceptor sites including those with suboptimal flanking sequences and sites located within cysteine-rich protein domains. Acceptor sites located in short loops of multi-spanning membrane proteins represent a new class of STT3B-dependent site. Remarkably, the lumenal ER chaperone GRP94 was hyperglycosylated in STT3A-deficient cells, bearing glycans on five silent sites in addition to the normal glycosylation site. GRP94 was also hyperglycosylated in wild-type cells treated with ER stress inducers including thapsigargin, dithiothreitol, and NGI-1.

Project description:STT3A and STT3B are the main catalytic subunit of oligosaccharyltransferase (OST-A and OST-B in mammalian cells), which primarily mediate cotranslational and posttranslocational N-linked glycosylation, respectively. To determine the specificity of STT3A and STT3B, we performed proteomics and glycoproteomics analyses to characterize the protein expression and glycosylation in STT3A-knockout (KO), STT3B-KO, and wild-type (WT) HEK293 cells. In total, 3,993 proteins, 4,020 unique N-linked intact glycopeptides (IGPs) and 723 glycosites, representing 401 glycoproteins were identified in KO and WT cells. Deletion of the STT3A gene had a greater impact on the protein expression than deletion of STT3B, especially on glycoproteins. In addition, mannosylated N-glycans from glycoproteins were reduced, while fucosylated N-glycans were increased in STT3A-KO cells. The glycan changes may be caused by the differential expression of glycosyltransferases and the activation of unfolded protein response (UPR) with further analysis of glycan-related enzymes. Interestingly, hyperglycosylated proteins were identified in KO cells. We verified that the hyperglycosylation of ENPL was caused by the ER stress and UPR, which were induced by the deletion of the STT3A. Overall, the specificity of STT3A and STT3B revealed that defects in the OST subunit not only broadly affect N-linked glycosylation of the protein but also affect protein expression.STT3A and STT3B are the main catalytic subunit of oligosaccharyltransferase (OST-A and OST-B in mammalian cells), which primarily mediate cotranslational and posttranslocational N-linked glycosylation, respectively.
