Molecular cloning and expression of a novel beta-1, 6-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase that forms core 2, core 4, and I branches.
Yeh J.-C., Ong E., Fukuda M.
Mucin-type O-glycans are classified according to their core structures. Among them, cores 2 and 4 are important for having N-acetyllactosamine side chains, which can be further modified to express various functional oligosaccharides.

Mucin-type O-glycans are classified according to their core structures. Among them, cores 2 and 4 are important for having N-acetyllactosamine side chains, which can be further modified to express various functional oligosaccharides. Previously, we discovered by cloning cDNAs that the core 2 branching enzyme, termed core 2 beta-1,6-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase-leukocyte type (C2GnT-L), is highly homologous to the I branching beta-1, 6-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase (IGnT) (Bierhuizen, M. F. A., Mattei, M.-G., and Fukuda, M. (1993) Genes Dev. 7, 468-478). Using these homologous sequences as probes, we identified an expressed sequence tag in dbEST, which has significant homology to C2GnT-L and IGnT. This approach, together with 5'and 3' rapid amplification of cDNA ends, yielded a human cDNA that encompasses a whole coding region of an enzyme, termed C2GnT-mucin type (C2GnT-M). C2GnT-M has 48.2 and 33.8% identity with C2GnT-L and IGnT at the amino acid levels. The expression of C2GnT-M cDNA directed the expression of core 2 branched oligosaccharides and I antigen on the cell surface. Moreover, a soluble chimeric C2GnT-M had core 4 branching activity in addition to core 2 and I branching activities. A soluble chimeric C2GnT-L, in contrast, almost exclusively contains core 2 branching activity. Northern blot analysis demonstrated that the C2GnT-M transcripts are heavily expressed in colon, small intestine, trachea, and stomach, where mucin is produced. In contrast, the transcripts of C2GnT-L were more widely detected, including the lymph node and bone marrow. These results indicate that the newly cloned C2GnT-M plays a critical role in O-glycan synthesis in mucins and might have distinctly different roles in oligosaccharide ligand formation compared with C2GnT-L. << Less

The beta-1,6-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase (beta1,6GnT) gene family encodes enzymes playing crucial roles in glycan synthesis. Important changes in beta1,6GnT expression are observed during development, oncogenesis, and immunodeficiency. The most characterized beta1,6GnTs in this gene family are the human (h) C2GnT-L and h-IGnT, which have core 2 [Galbeta1-->3(GlcNAcbeta1-->6)GalNAc] and I branching [GlcNAcbeta1-->3(GlcNAcbeta1-->6)Gal] activities, respectively. Recently, h-C2GnT-M was shown to be unique in forming core 2, core 4 [GlcNAcbeta1-->3(GlcNAcbeta1-->6)GalNAc], and I structures. To date, the beta1,6GnT gene family has been characterized only in mammals. Here, we describe that bovine herpesvirus type 4 (BHV-4) encodes a beta1,6GnT expressed during viral replication and exhibiting all of the core 2, core 4, and I branching activities. Sequencing of the BHV-4 genome revealed an ORF, hereafter called BORFF3-4, encoding a protein (pBORFF3-4) exhibiting 81.1%, 50.7%, and 36.6% amino acid identity with h-C2GnT-M, h-C2GnT-L, and h-IGnT, respectively. Reverse transcriptase-PCR analysis revealed that BORFF3-4 is expressed during BHV-4 replication. Expression of BORFF3-4 in Chinese hamster ovary cells directed the expression of core 2 branched oligosaccharides and I antigenic structures on the cell surface. Moreover, a soluble form of pBORFF3-4 had core 4 branching activity in addition to core 2 and I branching activities. Finally, infection of a C2GnT-negative cell line with BHV-4 induced expression of core 2 branched oligosaccharides. This study extends the beta1,6GnT gene family to a viral gene and provides a model to study the biological functions of a beta1,6GnT in the context of viral infection. << Less

Novikoff ascites tumor cells contain N-acetyllactosaminide beta 1 leads to 3 and beta 1 leads to 6 N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase activity.
van den Eijnden D.H., Winterwerp H., Smeeman P., Schiphorst W.E.
Novikoff ascites tumor cell homogenate was found to catalyze the transfer of [14C]N-acetylglucosamine from UDP-[14C]GlcNAc to asialo-alpha 1-acid glycoprotein. Mucins appeared to be poor acceptors. Methylation and hydrolysis of the product formed in an incubation with UDP-GlcNAc and asialo-alpha 1 ... >> More
Novikoff ascites tumor cell homogenate was found to catalyze the transfer of [14C]N-acetylglucosamine from UDP-[14C]GlcNAc to asialo-alpha 1-acid glycoprotein. Mucins appeared to be poor acceptors. Methylation and hydrolysis of the product formed in an incubation with UDP-GlcNAc and asialo-alpha 1-acid [3H]glycoprotein yielded 2,4,6-trimethyl [3H]galactose and 2,3,4-trimethyl [3H]galactose, indicating that N-acetylglucosaminyl residues were introduced to position C-3 and C-6 of the terminal galactoses on the glycoprotein. It is concluded that Novikoff cells contain two N-acetylglucosaminyltransferases which might be involved in the synthesis of linear and branched forms of cell surface polylactosaminoglycans and blood group I/i antigenic structures. << Less
