We describe here the composition of the O-linked glycans on the Neurospora crassa cellobiohydrolase I (CBHI), which accounts for approximately 40% of the protein secreted by cells growing in the presence of cellulose. CBHI is O-glycosylated with six types of linear, and three types of branched, O-glycans containing approximately equal amounts of mannose and galactose. In addition to the classic fungal O-glycans with reducing end mannoses, we also identified reducing end galactoses which suggest the existence of a protein-O-galactosyltransferase in N. crassa Because of the excellent genetic resources available for N. crassa, the knowledge of the CBHI O-glycans may enable the future evaluation of the role of O-glycosylation on cellulase function and the development of directed O-glycan/cellulase engineering.
我们在此描述粗糙脉孢菌纤维二糖水解酶I(CBHI)上O-连接聚糖的组成,该酶占在纤维素存在下生长的细胞分泌蛋白的约40%。CBHI通过六种线性和三种分支的O-聚糖进行O-糖基化,这些聚糖含有大致等量的甘露糖和半乳糖。除了具有还原端甘露糖的经典真菌O-聚糖外,我们还鉴定出了还原端半乳糖,这表明粗糙脉孢菌中存在一种蛋白质-O-半乳糖基转移酶。由于粗糙脉孢菌有出色的遗传资源,对CBHI O-聚糖的了解可能有助于未来评估O-糖基化对纤维素酶功能的作用以及定向O-聚糖/纤维素酶工程的发展。
