Abstract:
:Elevated ammonium concentrations in the medium of cultivated cells have been shown to increase the intracellular levels of uridine-5'-diphospho-N-acetylglucosamine (UDP-GlcNAc) and uridine-5'-diphospho-N-acetylgalactosamine (UDP-GalNAc; Ryll et al., 1994). These sugar nucleotides are substrates for glycosyltransferases in the glycosylation pathway. In our experiments, recombinant Chinese hamster ovary cells producing an immunoadhesin glycoprotein (GP1-IgG) have been cultivated under controlled cell culture conditions in the presence of different ammonium concentrations.15N-Labeled ammonium chloride (15NH4Cl) was added exogenously to the cell culture media to determine if ammonium was incorporated into UDP-GlcNAc and cytidine-5'-monophospho-N-acetylneuraminic acid (CMP-NANA) pools, and subsequently incorporated into GP1-IgG as N-linked glycans. The intracellular pools of UDP-activated hexosamines (UDP-GNAc) were followed during the time course of the experiment. To assess the extent of15NH4+incorporation into the glycans of GP1-IgG, the glycoprotein was first purified to homogeneity by protein A chromatography. Enzymatically released N-glycans were then analyzed by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry. N-Glycans synthesized in the presence of15NH4Cl revealed an N-glycan-dependent increase in mass-to-charge of 2.5-4.8 Da. These results indicate that 60-70% of the total nitrogen containing monosaccharides had incorporated15N. Presumably,15NH4+was incorporated into GlcNAc and N-acetylneuraminic acid as proposed earlier (Ryll et al., 1994). This might be a universal and previously not described reaction in mammalian cells when exposed to nonphysiological but in cell culture commonly found concentrations of ammonium. The data presented here are of significance for glycoprotein production in mammalian cell culture, since it has been shown previously that elevated levels of UDP-activated hexosamines affect N-glycan characteristics such as branching and degree of amino sugar incorporation. In addition, our results demonstrate that isotope labeling in combination with MALDI-TOF-MS can be used as an alternate tool to radioactive labeling of sugar substrates in metabolic studies.
