In this study, we identified a royal jelly glycoprotein (RJG) that carries a unique complex-type N-glycans harboring the T-antigen (Galβ1-3GalNAc) unit. The amino acid sequence of the tryptic glycopeptide harboring the T-antigen unit was G-E-S-L-X-K (X might be glycosylated Asn), confirmed in the major royal jelly glycoprotein 1 (MRJP1), which is also expressed in the mushroom body of the honeybee brain.
在本研究中,我们鉴定出一种蜂王浆糖蛋白(RJG),其携带一种独特的含有T抗原(Galβ1-3GalNAc)单元的复合型N-聚糖。含有T抗原单元的胰蛋白酶糖肽的氨基酸序列为G-E-S-L-X-K(X可能是糖基化的天冬酰胺),这在主要蜂王浆糖蛋白1(MRJP1)中得到证实,该蛋白也在蜜蜂大脑的蕈形体中表达。
