Chemical Synthesis of an Erythropoietin Glycoform Having a Triantennary N-Glycan: Significant Change of Biological Activity of Glycoprotein by Addition of a Small Molecular Weight Trisaccharide

Abstract: The glycosylation of proteins contributes to the modulation of the structure and biological activity of glycoproteins. Asparagine-linked glycans (N-glycans) of glycoproteins naturally exhibit diverse antennary patterns, such as bi-, tri-, and tetra-antennary forms. However, there are no chemical or biological methods to obtain homogeneous glycoproteins via the intentional alteration of the antennary form of N-glycans. Thus, the functions of the individual antennary form of N-glycan at a molecular level remain … Show more

“…Conversion of the glycopeptide hydrazide 25 to the corresponding thioester S14 required strict pH‐control, to avoid the formation of an unreactive lactam at the C‐terminal lysine. The lactamization can be avoided efficiently by use of side chain protecting groups [33] or by lowering the pH during thiolysis of the acyl azide [8d] . Cys‐peptide 26 was ligated with the glycopeptide thioester S14 furnishing the EPO glycopeptide 29–166 27 in high yield (73 %).…”

“…23 This can be attributed to the incomplete cleavage of the peptide from the resin, the coupling inefficiency of the oligosaccharyl amino acid to the resin-bound peptide and the purity of SPPS peptides. An original experiment has been reported by the Unverzagt group 36 and our laboratory 41 has performed the coupling of segments of erythropoietin with a triantennary glycan at −20 °C. Here, we further optimized the liquid phase synthesis of glycopeptide thioesters.…”

“…EPO with various glycoforms is used as a drug. Several groups have reported the synthesis of EPO with homogeneous glycoforms, and the effect of N-glycans on their biological activities has been investigated [112,115,116,[118][119][120]. In addition, various neoglycoprotein analogues of EPO have been reported [121][122][123][124].…”
