Structures of the oligosaccharide chains in swine trachea mucin glycoproteins. 1984

E V Chandrasekaran, and S S Rana, and M Davila, and J Mendicino

The structures of large O-glycosidically linked oligosaccharides derived from swine trachea mucin glycoprotein were established. Reduced oligosaccharides released by treatment with alkaline borohydride were separated by gel filtration on Bio-Gel P-6 and the neutral oligosaccharides were isolated by chromatography on DEAE-cellulose. Eight oligosaccharides (DIa to BII), ranging in length from 8 to 15 sugar units, were isolated. On the basis of carbohydrate composition and analytical data from sequential treatment with exoglycosidases and permethylation analysis, the following structures were assigned to these oligosaccharides: (Formula: see text).

D008745 Methylation Addition of methyl groups. In histo-chemistry methylation is used to esterify carboxyl groups and remove sulfate groups by treating tissue sections with hot methanol in the presence of hydrochloric acid. (From Stedman, 25th ed) Methylations
D009077 Mucins High molecular weight mucoproteins that protect the surface of EPITHELIAL CELLS by providing a barrier to particulate matter and microorganisms. Membrane-anchored mucins may have additional roles concerned with protein interactions at the cell surface. Mucin
