Carbohydrates located on the top of the “cap” contribute to the adhesive and enzymatic functions of vascular adhesion protein‐1

Abstract: Vascular adhesion protein 1 (VAP-1) is an endothelial adhesion molecule with an enzymatic activity. It deaminates biogenic amines, resulting in the formation of aldehydes and hydrogen peroxide. During the enzymatic reaction a transient Schiff base is formed between endothelial VAP-1 and its leukocytic ligand, and this interaction is important for lymphocyte adhesion. VAP-1 monomer has six potential N-linked, and three putative O-linked glycosylation sites and an SSSS sequence potentially forming an attachment … Show more

“…Furthermore, the R120S mutant, almost incapable of binding to hAOC3 under flow conditions (Fig 6C), modulated the amine oxidase activity like the WT protein (Fig 7C), but the R120S/R284S and R120S/R290S double mutants had lost this capacity (Fig 7C). This result explains our previous data according to which the removal of six N-glycosylation sites from the hAOC3 dimer could simultaneously reduce lymphocyte binding and increase enzymatic activity [14]. Consequently, in this study we have discovered a biological role for the binding of R284 and R290 to the active site of hAOC3: upon binding they modulate the amine oxidase activity of hAOC3.…”

“…The two functions of hAOC3 are interlinked since inhibition of the enzymatic activity of hAOC3 increases rolling velocity but reduces adhesion and transmigration steps of leukocyte extravasation in vivo [12]. Additionally, sialic acids of the hAOC3-attached glycans are crucial for adhesion [13] and the hAOC3 glycosylation is important in the initial recognition but also regulates the enzymatic activity [14]. Since the small molecular inhibitors of hAOC3 oxidase activity are shown to prevent the inflammatory function of hAOC3 in vivo , the hAOC3 inhibitors could be used in treating acute and chronic inflammatory conditions as well as tumor progression and metastatic spread of cancer (reviewed in [15]).…”

“…This result has consistently been noted with our SSAO inhibitors from several distinct chemical series and thus may reflect species-specific sequence differences at the enzyme active site or cell-and tissue-specific alterations in SSAO glycosylation patterns. Consistent with this possibility, modification of SSAO glycosylation has been shown to directly influence the enzymatic activity, as well as the ability of SSAO to support leukocyte adhesion (Maula et al, 2005). The specificity of LJP 1586 for inhibition of SSAO was demonstrated against a large panel of receptors and enzymes.…”

“…20,21 On the top of the molecule there are multiple O-and N-linked oligosaccharides, which may be important for its adhesive function. 22 There is also a groove on the surface of VAP-1 which opens into narrow and deep substrate channel leading to the catalytic center of the molecule buried relatively deep inside each monomer. The amino acids guarding the entry into the channel differ between different SSAO and are likely to serve a key role in conferring the substrate specificity of these molecules.…”
