Chemical Release of O-Linked Oligosaccharide Chains

  • Protocol
The Protein Protocols Handbook

Abstract

O-linked oligosaccharides having the core sequences shown below can be released specifically from protein via a β-elimination reaction catalyzed by alkali. The reaction is usually carried out with concomitant reduction to prevent peeling, a reaction caused by further β-elimination around the ring of 3-substituted monosaccharides (1). The reduced oligosaccharides can be specifically bound by solid sorbent extraction on phenylboronic acid (PBA) columns (2).
