Glycan analysis of therapeutic glycoproteins

Abstract: Therapeutic monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) are glycoproteins produced by living cell systems. The glycan moieties attached to the proteins can directly affect protein stability, bioactivity, and immunogenicity. Therefore, glycan variants of a glycoprotein product must be adequately analyzed and controlled to ensure product quality. However, the inherent complexity of protein glycosylation poses a daunting analytical challenge. This review provides an update of recent advances in glycan analysis, including the po… Show more

“…The complexity and heterogeneity of the glycosylation pattern is mainly due to mAbs production in living expression systems [14][15][16] and requires a number of orthogonal analytical techniques to be fully characterized. Several analytical methods have been described for the glyco-variants characterization at different levels (from released glycans to intact protein level) including separative techniques (liquid chromatography (LC), capillary electrophoresis (CE)) often coupled to spectrometric, amperometric and mass spectrometric detection [17][18][19][20][21]. Recently, Reusch's group published two major articles dealing with the analysis of Fc-glycosylation profiles, and comparing several separation methods hyphenated or not with mass spectrometry (MS) detection [20,21].…”

“…Although MS‐based methods can reliably identify the structure, linkage, and position of glycans, enzymatic or chemical stripping of glycans from proteins prior to MS profiling prevents accurate detection and identification of total glycans. Moreover, these methods are usually time‐consuming and require complex sample preparation procedures …”

“…Lectins are a group of carbohydrate‐binding proteins that specifically bind different glycans. The advantages of using lectin microarray over traditional MS‐based methods include the simplicity and high sensitivity of the method that supports direct global glycomic profiling, the lower stringency of initial sample purity (crude glycoprotein samples can be analyzed), and the comparatively simple sample preparation procedure (without glycan‐release and purification) . As protein fragmentation or glycan liberation is not required during sample preparation, the sampled glycoproteins can retain their intact natural conformations and abundance.…”
