The role of C-4-substituted mannose analogues in protein glycosylation. Effect of the guanosine diphosphate esters of 4-deoxy-4-fluoro-D-mannose and 4-deoxy-D-mannose on lipid-linked oligosaccharide assembly.

ABSTRACT: The effects of the guanosine diphosphate esters of 4-deoxy-4-fluoro-D-mannose (GDP-4FMan) and 4-deoxy-D-mannose (GDP-4dMan) on reactions of the dolichol pathway in chick-embryo cell microsomal membranes were investigated by studies with chick-embryo cell microsomal membranes in vitro and in baby-hamster kidney (BHK) cells in vivo. Each nucleotide sugar analogue inhibited lipid-linked oligosaccharide biosynthesis in a concentration-dependent manner. GDP-4FMan blocked in vitro the addition of mannose to Dol-PP-(GlcNAc)2Man from GDP-Man (where Dol represents dolichol), but did not interfere with the formation of Dol-P-Man, Dol-P-Glc and Dol-PP-(GlcNAc)2. Although GDP-4FMan and Dol-P-4FMan were identified as metabolites of 4FMan in BHK cells labelled with [1-14C]4FMan, GDP-4FMan was a very poor substrate for GDP-Man:Dol-P mannosyltransferase and Dol-P-4FMan could only be synthesized in vitro if the chick-embryo cell membranes were primed with Dol-P. It therefore appears that the inhibition of lipid-linked oligosaccharide formation in BHK cells treated with 4FMan [Grier & Rasmussen (1984) J. Biol. Chem. 259, 1027-1030] is due primarily to a blockage in the formation of Dol-PP-(GlcNAc)2Man2 by GDP-4FMan. In contrast, GDP-4dMan was a substrate for those mannosyltransferases that catalyse the transfer of the first five mannose residues to Dol-PP-(GlcNAc)2. In addition, GDP-4dMan was a substrate for GDP-Man:Dol-P mannosyltransferase, which catalysed the formation of Dol-P-4dMan. As a consequence of this, the formation of Dol-P-Man, Dol-P-Glc and Dol-PP-(GlcNAc)2 may be inhibited through competition for Dol-P. In BHK cells treated with 10 mM-4dMan, Dol-PP-(GlcNAc)2Man9 was the major lipid-linked oligosaccharide detected. Nearly normal extents of protein glycosylation were observed, but very little processing to complex oligosaccharides occurred, and the high-mannose structures were smaller than in untreated cells.

Project description:With enzyme preparations from Phaseolus aureus seedlings, the initial rate of (14)C-labelled polysaccharide formation from GDP-alpha-d-[(14)C]glucose is not increased by additions of GDP-alpha-d-mannose. However, final incorporation is increased by addition of GDP-alpha-d-mannose, since the total reaction-time is extended. In contrast, the initial rate of (14)C-labelled polysaccharide formation from GDP-alpha-d-[(14)C]mannose is increased by all concentrations of GDP-alpha-d-glucose that are less than that of the GDP-alpha-d-[(14)C]mannose. Maximum stimulation of the initial rate occurs at a GDP-alpha-d-[(14)C]mannose/GDP-alpha-d-glucose concentration ratio of about 4:1. However, eventual incorporation from GDP-alpha-d-[(14)C]mannose is decreased by the addition of GDP-alpha-d-glucose, since the reaction rate falls off sharply after about 2min. Reciprocal plots of (14)C-labelled polysaccharide formation from GDP-alpha-d-[(14)C]mannose result in biphasic graphs. The two straight-line portions of the plot are joined by a curved line in the concentration range between 2-3 and 50mum. Extrapolated K(m) values for the two linear components are 0.4-1.0 and 700-1500mum. The effect of GDP-alpha-d-glucose on the kinetics of (14)C-labelled polysaccharide formation from GDP-alpha-d-[(14)C]mannose is complex, and depends on relative concentrations of the two sugar nucleotides. (14)C-labelled polysaccharide formation from GDP-alpha-d-[(14)C]glucose also results in biphasic reciprocal plots. One component appears to have K(m) about 2-3mum, the other about 200-400mum. In this reaction, GDP-alpha-d-mannose appears to be a competitive inhibitor with K(i) 20-30mum. With particulate preparations of P. aureus, GDP-alpha-d-[(14)C]glucose appears to be a precursor for the synthesis of one polysaccharide, a glucomannan, the mannose moieties of which are derived from an intermediate existing in the particulate preparation. From the rate results, GDP-alpha-d-[(14)C]mannose appears to be a precursor for at least two polysaccharides, one of which is a glucomannan.

Project description:When pig liver microsomal preparations were incubated with GDP-[(14)C]mannose, 10-40% of the (14)C was transferred to mannolipid and 1-3% to mannoprotein. The transfer to mannolipid was readily reversible and GDP was one of the products of the reaction. It was possible to reverse the reaction by adding excess of GDP and to show the incorporation of [(14)C]GDP into GDP-mannose. When excess of unlabelled GDP-mannose was added to a partially completed incubation there was a rapid transfer back of [(14)C]mannose from the mannolipid to GDP-mannose. The other product of the reaction, the mannolipid, had the properties of a prenol phosphate mannose. This was illustrated by its lability to dilute acid but stability to dilute alkali, and by its chromatographic properties. Dolichol phosphate stimulated the incorporation of [(14)C]mannose into both mannolipid and into protein, although the former effect was larger and more consistent than the latter. The incorporation of exogenous [(3)H]dolichol phosphate into the mannolipid, and its release, accompanied by mannose, on treatment of the mannolipid with dilute acid, confirmed that exogenous dolichol phosphate can act as an acceptor of mannose in this system. It was shown that other exogenous polyprenol phosphates (but not farnesol phosphate or cetyl phosphate) can substitute for dolichol phosphate in this respect but that they are much less efficient than dolichol phosphate in stimulating the transfer of mannose to protein. Since pig liver contained substances with the chromatographic properties of both dolichol phosphate and dolichol phosphate mannose, which caused an increase in transfer of [(14)C]mannose from GDP-[(14)C]mannose to mannolipid, it was concluded that endogenous dolichol phosphate acts as an acceptor of mannose in the microsomal preparation. The results indicate that the mannolipid is an intermediate in the transfer of mannose from GDP-mannose to protein. Some 4% of the mannose of a sample of mannolipid added to an incubation was transferred to protein. A scheme is proposed to explain the variations with time in the production of radioactive mannolipid, mannoprotein, mannose 1-phosphate and mannose from GDP-[(14)C]mannose that takes account of the above observations. ATP, ADP, UTP, GDP, ADP-glucose and UDP-glucose markedly inhibited the transfer of mannose to the mannolipid.
