Quantitative site- and structure-specific N-glycoproteomics characterization of differential N-glycosylation in MCF-7/ADR cancer stem cells.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Cancer stem cells (CSCs) are reported to be responsible for tumor initiation, progression, metastasis, and therapy resistance where P-glycoprotein (P-gp) as well as other glycoproteins are involved. Identification of these glycoprotein markers is critical for understanding the resistance mechanism and developing therapeutics.

Methods

In this study, we report our comparative and quantitative site- and structure-specific N-glycoproteomics study of MCF-7/ADR cancer stem cells (CSCs) vs. MCF-7/ADR cells. With zic-HILIC enrichment, isotopic diethyl labeling, RPLC-MS/MS (HCD) analysis and GPSeeker DB search, differentially expressed N-glycosylation was quantitatively characterized at the intact N-glycopeptide level.

Results

4016 intact N-glycopeptides were identified with spectrum-level FDR ≤ 1%. With the criteria of ≥ 1.5 fold change and p value < 0.05, 247 intact N-glycopeptides were found differentially expressed in MCF-7/ADR CSCs as putative markers. Raw data are available via ProteomeXchange with identifier PXD013836.

Conclusions

Quantitative site- and structure-specific N-glycoproteomics characterization may help illustrate the cell stemness property.

Project description:IntroductionThe human plasma glycoproteome holds enormous potential to identify personalized biomarkers for diagnostics. Glycoproteomics has matured into a technology for plasma N-glycoproteome analysis but further evolution towards clinical applications depends on the clinical validity and understanding of protein- and site-specific glycosylation changes in disease.ObjectivesHere, we exploited the uniqueness of a patient cohort of genetic defects in well-defined glycosylation pathways to assess the clinical applicability of plasma N-glycoproteomics.MethodsComparative glycoproteomics was performed of blood plasma from 40 controls and 74 patients with 13 different genetic diseases that impact the protein N-glycosylation pathway. Baseline glycosylation in healthy individuals was compared to reference glycome and intact transferrin protein mass spectrometry data. Use of glycoproteomics data for biomarker discovery and sample stratification was evaluated by multivariate chemometrics and supervised machine learning. Clinical relevance of site-specific glycosylation changes were evaluated in the context of genetic defects that lead to distinct accumulation or loss of specific glycans. Integrated analysis of site-specific glycoproteome changes in disease was performed using chord diagrams and correlated with intact transferrin protein mass spectrometry data.ResultsGlycoproteomics identified 191 unique glycoforms from 58 unique peptide sequences of 34 plasma glycoproteins that span over 3 magnitudes of abundance in plasma. Chemometrics identified high-specificity biomarker signatures for each of the individual genetic defects with better stratification performance than the current diagnostic standard method. Bioinformatic analyses revealed site-specific glycosylation differences that could be explained by underlying glycobiology and protein-intrinsic factors.ConclusionOur work illustrates the strong potential of plasma glycoproteomics to significantly increase specificity of glycoprotein biomarkers with direct insights in site-specific glycosylation changes to better understand the glycobiological mechanisms underlying human disease.

Project description:Glycoproteins perform extra- and intracellular functions in innate and adaptive immunity by lectin-based interactions to exposed glyco-determinants. Herein, we document and mechanistically explain the formation of subcellular-specific N-glycosylation determinants on glycoproteins trafficking through the shared biosynthetic machinery of human cells. LC-MS/MS-based quantitative glycomics showed that the secreted glycoproteins of eight human breast epithelial cells displaying diverse geno- and phenotypes consistently displayed more processed, primarily complex type, N-glycans than the high-mannose-rich microsomal glycoproteins. Detailed subcellular glycome profiling of proteins derived from three breast cell lines (MCF7/MDA468/MCF10A) demonstrated that secreted glycoproteins displayed significantly more α-sialylation and α1,6-fucosylation, but less α-mannosylation, than both the intermediately glycan-processed cell-surface glycoproteomes and the under-processed microsomal glycoproteomes. Subcellular proteomics and gene ontology revealed substantial presence of endoplasmic reticulum resident glycoproteins in the microsomes and confirmed significant enrichment of secreted and cell-surface glycoproteins in the respective subcellular fractions. The solvent accessibility of the glycosylation sites on maturely folded proteins of the 100 most abundant putative N-glycoproteins observed uniquely in the three subcellular glycoproteomes correlated with the glycan type processing thereby mechanistically explaining the formation of subcellular-specific N-glycosylation. In conclusion, human cells have developed mechanisms to simultaneously and reproducibly generate subcellular-specific N-glycosylation using a shared biosynthetic machinery. This aspect of protein-specific glycosylation is important for structural and functional glycobiology and discussed here in the context of the spatio-temporal interaction of glyco-determinants with lectins central to infection and immunity.
