A melanoma proteoglycan model system has been used to examine the role of core protein asparagine-linked (N-linked) oligosaccharides in the transport and assembly of proteoglycan molecules. The use of agents which block discrete steps in the trimming and processing of core oligosaccharides (castanospermine, 1-deoxynojirimycin, N-methyldeoxynojirimycin, 1-deoxymannojirimycin, and swainsonine) demonstrates that removal of glucose residues from the N-linked oligosaccharides is required for the cell surface expression of a melanoma proteoglycan core protein and for the conversion of the core protein to a chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan. However, complete maturation of the oligosaccharides to a "complex" form is not required for these events. Treatment of M21 human melanoma cells with the glucosidase inhibitors castanospermine, 1-deoxynojirimycin, or N-methyldeoxynojirimycin results in a dose-dependent inhibition of glycosaminoglycan (GAG) addition to the melanoma antigen recognized by monoclonal antibody 9.2.27. In contrast, treatment with the mannosidase inhibitors 1-deoxymannojirimycin and swainsonine does not effect GAG addition. Identical results are obtained when the major histocompatibility complex class II antigen gamma chain proteoglycan is examined in inhibitor-treated melanoma and B-lymphoblastoid cells. These data, in conjunction with the known effects of the glucosidase and mannosidase inhibitors on the transport and secretion of other glycoproteins support the hypothesis that the addition, trimming, and processing of N-linked oligosaccharides is involved in the transport of certain proteoglycan core proteins to the site of GAG addition and to the cell surface.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008361 Mannosidases Glycoside hydrolases that catalyze the hydrolysis of alpha or beta linked MANNOSE. Mannosidase
D009363 Neoplasm Proteins Proteins whose abnormal expression (gain or loss) are associated with the development, growth, or progression of NEOPLASMS. Some neoplasm proteins are tumor antigens (ANTIGENS, NEOPLASM), i.e. they induce an immune reaction to their tumor. Many neoplasm proteins have been characterized and are used as tumor markers (BIOMARKERS, TUMOR) when they are detectable in cells and body fluids as monitors for the presence or growth of tumors. Abnormal expression of ONCOGENE PROTEINS is involved in neoplastic transformation, whereas the loss of expression of TUMOR SUPPRESSOR PROTEINS is involved with the loss of growth control and progression of the neoplasm. Proteins, Neoplasm

D002809 Chondroitin Sulfates Derivatives of chondroitin which have a sulfate moiety esterified to the galactosamine moiety of chondroitin. Chondroitin sulfate A, or chondroitin 4-sulfate, and chondroitin sulfate C, or chondroitin 6-sulfate, have the sulfate esterified in the 4- and 6-positions, respectively. Chondroitin sulfate B (beta heparin; DERMATAN SULFATE) is a misnomer and this compound is not a true chondroitin sulfate.

D000949 Histocompatibility Antigens Class II Large, transmembrane, non-covalently linked glycoproteins (alpha and beta). Both chains can be polymorphic although there is more structural variation in the beta chains. The class II antigens in humans are called HLA-D ANTIGENS and are coded by a gene on chromosome 6. In mice, two genes named IA and IE on chromosome 17 code for the H-2 antigens. The antigens are found on B-lymphocytes, macrophages, epidermal cells, and sperm and are thought to mediate the competence of and cellular cooperation in the immune response. The term IA antigens used to refer only to the proteins encoded by the IA genes in the mouse, but is now used as a generic term for any class II histocompatibility antigen.
