Concanavalin A-binding glycoproteins were obtained from procyclic culture forms (PCFs) of Trypanosoma congolense, T. simiae, and T. b. brucei strains. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) analysis revealed that glycoproteins of 38.5, 30.5, and 27 kDa were conserved between the different species and strains of the procyclic parasites. There were few similarities in the profiles of the high-molecular-weight glycoconjugates between the parasites. Monoclonal antibody analysis revealed that the 38.5- and 27-kDa glycoproteins were intracellular molecules and that they contained cross-reactive antigenic determinants. Surface biotinylation of PCF T. congolense K45/1 identified surface-accessible glycoproteins of 81.5, 59, and 38-42 kDa. By use of lectin blots and enzymatic deglycosylation studies, we demonstrated that the 81.5-, 59-, 38.5-, and 27-kDa glycoproteins contained N-linked oligosaccharide chains with both high-mannose-type and complex-type oligosaccharides, and the 81.5- and 59-kDa surface glycoproteins contained sialic acid residues. The glycoproteins identified in this study provide a starting point for further structure and function studies.
