Bisecting GlcNAc modification reverses the chemoresistance via attenuating the function of P-gp.

ABSTRACT: Rationale: Chemoresistance is a key factor contributing to the failure of anti-breast cancer chemotherapy. Although abnormal glycosylation is closely correlated with breast cancer progression, the function of glycoconjugates in chemoresistance remains poorly understood. Methods: Levels and regulatory roles of bisecting N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) in chemoresistant breast cancer cells were determined in vitro and in vivo. Glycoproteomics guided identification of site-specific bisecting GlcNAc on P-glycoprotein (P-gp). Co-immunoprecipitation coupled mass spectrometry (Co-IP-MS) and proximity labelling MS identified the interactome of P-gp, and the biological function of site-specific bisecting GlcNAc was investigated by site/truncation mutation and structural simulations.
