The tryptic glycopeptides of horseradish peroxidase isozyme c (HRPc) were studied by methylation linkage analysis, exoglycosidase degradation, and matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDITOFMS). Over 90% of the predicted tryptic peptides and glycopeptides of HRPc could be identified in the unfractionated digest. Four glycans, namely (Xyl)Man3(Fuc)GlcNAc2 (major species), (Xyl)Man2(Fuc)GlcNAc2, (Xyl)Man3GlcNAc2, and Man3(Fuc)GlcNAc2 (minor species), were observed at all of the N-glycosylation sites and account for greater than 95% of the carbohydrate. Other members of this glycan family, namely (Xyl)xManm(Fuc)f GlcNAc2 (x = 0 or 1, f = 0 or 1, m = 4, 5, 6, or 7), account for the rest of the glycans. Only traces of high mannose-type glycans were detected in HRPc. Two sites, namely those at Asn-57 and Asn-267, were found to be more heterogeneous than the sites at Asn-13, Asn-158, Asn-186, 198 (doubly glycosylated peptide), Asn-214, and Asn-255. Two of the glycopeptides were observed as part of disulfide-linked species. MALDITOFMS confirmed the N-glycosylation sites previously reported [K.G. Welinder, Eur. J. Biochem., 96 (1979) 483-502] and was used to determine the heterogeneity of the glycan pool at each site.

D019032	Spectrometry, Mass, Matrix-Assisted Laser Desorption-Ionization	A mass spectrometric technique that is used for the analysis of large biomolecules. Analyte molecules are embedded in an excess matrix of small organic molecules that show a high resonant absorption at the laser wavelength used. The matrix absorbs the laser energy, thus inducing a soft disintegration of the sample-matrix mixture into free (gas phase) matrix and analyte molecules and molecular ions. In general, only molecular ions of the analyte molecules are produced, and almost no fragmentation occurs. This makes the method well suited for molecular weight determinations and mixture analysis.
