Role of Glycosyltransferase 25 Domain 1 in Type I Collagen Glycosylation and Molecular Phenotypes.

ABSTRACT: Glycosylation in type I collagen occurs as O-linked galactosyl- (G-) lesser and glucosylgalactosyl-hydroxylysine (GG-Hyl); however, its biological significance is still not well understood. To investigate the function of this modification in bone, we have generated preosteoblast MC3T3-E1 (MC)-derived clones, short hairpin (Sh) clones, in which Glt25d1 gene expression was stably suppressed. In Sh clones, the GLT25D1 protein levels were markedly diminished in comparison to controls (MC and those transfected with the empty vector). In Sh collagen, levels of both G- and GG-Hyl were significantly diminished with a concomitant increase in the level of free-Hyl. In addition, the level of immature divalent cross-links significantly diminished while the level of the mature trivalent cross-link increased. As determined by mass spectrometric analysis, seven glycosylation sites were identified in type I collagen and the most predominant site was at the helical cross-linking site, ?1-87. At all of the glycosylation sites, the relative levels of G- and GG-Hyl were markedly diminished, i.e., by ?50-75%, in Sh collagen, and at five of these sites, the level of Lys hydroxylation was significantly increased. The collagen fibrils in Sh clones were larger, and mineralization was impaired. These results indicate that GLT25D1 catalyzes galactosylation of Hyl throughout the type I collagen molecule and that this modification may regulate maturation of collagen cross-linking, fibrillogenesis, and mineralization.

Project description:Hydroxylysine glycosylations are post-translational modifications (PTMs) essential for the maturation and homeostasis of fibrillar and non-fibrillar collagen molecules. The multifunctional collagen lysyl hydroxylase 3 (LH3/PLOD3) and the collagen galactosyltransferase GLT25D1 are the human enzymes that have been identified as being responsible for the glycosylation of collagen lysines, although a precise description of the contribution of each enzyme to these essential PTMs has not yet been provided in the literature. LH3/PLOD3 is thought to be capable of performing two chemically distinct collagen glycosyltransferase reactions using the same catalytic site: an inverting beta-1,O-galactosylation of hydroxylysines (Gal-T) and a retaining alpha-1,2-glucosylation of galactosyl hydroxylysines (Glc-T). In this work, we have combined indirect luminescence-based assays with direct mass spectrometry-based assays and molecular structure studies to demonstrate that LH3/PLOD3 only has Glc-T activity and that GLT25D1 only has Gal-T activity. Structure-guided mutagenesis confirmed that the Glc-T activity is defined by key residues in the first-shell environment of the glycosyltransferase catalytic site as well as by long-range contributions from residues within the same glycosyltransferase (GT) domain. By solving the molecular structures and characterizing the interactions and solving the molecular structures of human LH3/PLOD3 in complex with different UDP-sugar analogs, we show how these studies could provide insights for LH3/PLOD3 glycosyltransferase inhibitor development. Collectively, our data provide new tools for the direct investigation of collagen hydroxylysine PTMs and a comprehensive overview of the complex network of shapes, charges, and interactions that enable LH3/PLOD3 glycosyltransferase activities, expanding the molecular framework and facilitating an improved understanding and manipulation of glycosyltransferase functions in biomedical applications.
