Schematic
|
Glycans are removed by enzyme treatment. Specific transferases can be used to incorporate Azido-GalNAc at suitable open positions. The incorporation Azido-GalNAc can then be detected using Biotinylated Alkyne in a click chemistry reaction. |
Sample Data
|
Labeling Asialofetuin with GALNT2. In each reaction, 5 µg of Asialofetuin (Sigma Aldrich), 0.5 nmol of UDP-Azido-GlcNAc, 1 µg rhGALNT2 and 1 µg of rE. faecalis O-Glycosidase was mixed in 50 µL of 25 mM HEPES supplemented with 10 mM of MnCl2 and 150 mM NaCl at pH 7.5. The reactions were incubated at 37°C for 60 minutes. The reactions were then conjugated, at room temperature for 30 minutes, with 1.0 nmol of Biotinylated Alkyne in the presence of 100 nmol of Ascorbic Acid and 5 nmol of CuCl2 for a final volume of 60 µL. The reactions were then separated with 12% SDS-PAGE and blotted to a nitrocellulose paper and detected with Streptavidin-HRP. |
