La sialylation des N-glycanes du fragment Fc des immunogobulines G (IgG) est une modification peu fréquente des IgG humaines. Pourtant, elle est l’objet de beaucoup d’attention depuis que deux articles fondateurs ont été publiés, qui montrent l’un que la sialylation des IgG diminue leur capacité à déclencher la cytotoxicité cellulaire dépendant de l’anticorps (ADCC), et l’autre que les IgG sialylées en α2,6 seraient la fraction efficace des IgG intraveineuses (IgIV) anti-inflammatoires. Les anticorps monoclonaux thérapeutiques, qui sont le plus souvent des IgG recombinantes produites en culture de cellules de mammifère, connaissent depuis la fin des années 90 un succès et une croissance phénoménaux sur le marché pharmaceutique. La maîtrise de la N-glycosylation du Fc des IgG est une clé de l’efficacité des anticorps monoclonaux. Si les IgG sialylées sont des molécules peu fréquentes in vivo, elles sont très rares en culture cellulaire. Dans cette étude, nous avons développé une méthode de production d’IgG avec une sialylation de type humain en cellules CHO. Nous avons travaillé principalement sur la mise au point d’une stratégie de production d’IgG sialylées par co-expression transitoire d’une IgG1 avec la β1,4-galactosyltransférase I (β4GTI) et la β-galactoside-α2,6-sialyltransférase I (ST6GalI). Nous avons montré que cette méthode permettait d’enrichir l’IgG1 en glycane fucosylé di-galactosylé mono-α2,6-sialylé G2FS(6)1, qui est le glycane sialylé présent sur les IgG humaines. Nous avons ensuite adapté cette méthode à la production d’IgG présentant des profils de glycosylation riches en acides sialiques, riches en galactose terminal, et/ou appauvris en fucosylation. L’analyse des profils de glycosylation obtenus par la co-expression de diverses combinaisons enzymatiques avec l’IgG1 native ou une version mutante de l’IgG1 (F243A), a permis de discuter des influences respectives de la sous-galactosylation des IgG1 en CHO et des contraintes structurales du Fc dans la limitation de la sialylation des IgG en CHO. Nous avons ensuite utilisé les IgG1 produites avec différents profils de glycosylation afin d’évaluer l’impact de la sialylation α2,6 sur l’interaction de l’IgG avec le récepteur FcγRIIIa, principal récepteur impliqué dans la réponse ADCC. Nous avons montré que la sialylation α2,6 augmentait la stabilité du complexe formé par l’IgG avec le FcγRIIIa, mais que ce bénéfice n’était pas directement traduit par une augmentation de l’efficacité ADCC de l’anticorps. Enfin, nous avons débuté le développement d’une plateforme d’expression stable d’IgG sialylées compatible avec une production à l’échelle industrielle. Nous avons obtenu une lignée capable de produire des IgG enrichies en G2FS(6)1 à hauteur de 400 mg/L. Cette étude a contribué à une meilleure compréhension de l’impact de la sialylation sur les fonctions effectrices des IgG, et a permis d’augmenter la maîtrise des techniques de modulation du profil de glycosylation des IgG en culture cellulaire.

The production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) within endothelial cells may have several effects, including alterations in the activity of paracrine factors, gene expression, apoptosis, and cellular injury. Recent studies indicate that a phagocyte-type NAD(P)H oxidase is a major source of endothelial ROS. In contrast to the high-output phagocytic oxidase, the endothelial enzyme has much lower biochemical activity and a different substrate specificity (NADH.NADPH). In the present study, we (1) cloned and characterized the cDNA and predicted amino acid structures of the 2 major subunits of rat coronary microvascular endothelial cell NAD(P)H oxidase, gp91-phox and p22-phox; (2) undertook a detailed comparison with phagocytic NADPH oxidase sequences; and (3) studied the subcellular location of these subunits in endothelial cells. Although these studies revealed an overall high degree of homology (.90%) between the endothelial and phagocytic oxidase subunits, the endothelial gp91-phox sequence has potentially important differences in a putative NADPH-binding domain and in putative glycosylation sites. In addition, the subcellular location of the endothelial gp91-phox and p22-phox subunits is significantly different from that reported for the neutrophil oxidase, in that they are predominantly intracellular and collocated in the vicinity of the endoplasmic reticulum. This first detailed characterization of gp91-phox and p22-phox structure and location in endothelial cells provides new data that may account, in part, for the differences in function between the phagocytic and endothelial NAD(P)H oxidases.

The folding and targeting of membrane proteins poses a major challenge to the cell, as they must remain insertion competent while their highly hydrophobic transmembrane (TM) domains are transferred from the ribosome, through the aqueous cytosol and into the lipid bilayer. The biogenesis of a mature membrane protein takes place through the insertion and integration into the lipid bilayer. A number of TM proteins have been shown to gain some degree of secondary structure within the ribosome tunnel and to retain this conformation throughout maturation. Although studies into the folding and targeting of a number of membrane proteins have been carried out to date, there is little information on one of the largest class of eukaryotic membrane proteins; the G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). This project studies the early folding events of the human ortholog of GPR35. To analyse the structure of the 1st TM domain, intermediates were generated and assessed by the biochemical method of pegylation (PEG-MAL). A structurally-similar microbial opsin (Bacterioopsin) was also used to investigate the differences in the early protein folding within eukaryotic and prokaryotic translation systems. Results showed that neither the 1st TM domain of GPR35 nor Bacterioopsin were capable of compacting in the ribosome tunnel before their N-terminus reached the ribosome exit point. The results for this assay remained consistent whether the proteins were translated in a eukaryotic or prokaryotic translation system. To examine the communication mechanism between the ribosome, the nascent chain and the protein targeting pathway, crosslinking experiments were carried out using the homobifunctional lysine cross-linker BS3. Specifically, the data generated here show that the nascent chain of GPR35 reaches the ribosomal protein uL23 in an extended conformation and interacts with the SRP protein as it exits the ribosome tunnel. This confirms the role of SRP in the co-translational targeting of GPR35. Using these methods insights into the early folding of GPCRs has been obtained. Further experiments using site-directed mutagenesis to reduce hydrophobicity in the 1st TM domain of GPR35, highlighted the mechanisms by which GPCRs are targeted to the endoplasmic reticulum. Confirming that hydrophobicity within the signal anchor sequence is essential of SRP-dependent targeting. Following the successful interaction of the nascent GPR35 and SRP, GPR35 is successfully targeted to ER membranes, shown here as dog pancreas microsomes (DPMs). Glycosylation of the GPR35 N-terminus was used to determine nascent chain structure as it is inserted into the ER membrane. These glycosylation experiments confirm that TM1 has obtained its compacted state whilst residing in the translocon. Finally, a site-specific cross-linking approach using the homobifunctional cysteine cross-linker, BMH, was used to study the lateral integration of GPR35 into the ER. Cross-linking of GPR35 TM1 and TM2 could be detected adjacent to a protein of ~45kDa, believed to be Sec61α. The loss of this adduct, as the nascent chain extends, showed the lateral movement of GPR35 TM1 from the translocon was dependent on the subsequent synthesis of TM2.

One of the greatest sources of biologically active compounds is natural products. Often these compounds serve as platforms for the design and development of novel drugs and therapeutics. The overwhelming amount of genomic information acquired in recent years has revealed that ribosomally synthesized and post-translationally modified natural products are much more widespread than originally anticipated. Identified in nearly all forms of life, these natural products display incredible structural diversity and possess a wide range of biological functions that include antimicrobial, antiviral, anti-inflammatory, antitumor, and antiallodynic activities. The unique pathways taken to biosynthesize these compounds offer exciting opportunities for the bioengineering of these complex molecules. The studies described herein focus on both the mode of action and biosynthesis of antimicrobial peptides. In Chapter 2, it is demonstrated that haloduracin, a recently discovered two-peptide lantibiotic, possesses nanomolar antimicrobial activity against a panel of bacteria strains. The potency of haloduracin rivals that of nisin, an economically and therapeutically relevant lantibiotic, which can be attributed to a similar dual mode of action. Moreover, it was demonstrated that this lantibiotic of alkaliphile origin has better stability at physiological pH than nisin. The molecular target of haloduracin was identified as the cell wall peptidoglycan precursor lipid II. Through the in vitro biosynthesis of haloduracin, several analogues of Halα were prepared and evaluated for their ability to inhibit peptidoglycan biosynthesis as well as bacterial cell growth. In an effort to overcome the limitations of in vitro biosynthesis strategies, a novel strategy was developed resulting in a constitutively active lantibiotic synthetase enzyme. This methodology, described in Chapter 3, enabled the production of fully-modified lacticin 481 products with proteinogenic and non-proteinogenic amino acid substitutions. A number of lacticin 481 analogues were prepared and their antimicrobial activity and ability to bind lipid II was assessed. Moreover, site-directed mutagenesis of the constitutively active synthetase resulted in a kinase-like enzyme with the ability to phosphorylate a number of peptide substrates. The hunt for a lantibiotic synthetase enzyme responsible for installing the presumed dehydro amino acids and a thioether ring in the natural product sublancin, led to the identification and characterization of a unique post-translational modification. The studies described in Chapter 4, demonstrate that sublancin is not a lantibiotic, but rather an unusual S-linked glycopeptide. Its structure was revised based on extensive chemical, biochemical, and spectroscopic characterization. In addition to structural investigation, bioinformatic analysis of the sublancin gene cluster led to the identification of an S-glycosyltransferase predicted to be responsible for the post-translational modification of the sublancin precursor peptide. The unprecedented glycosyltransferase was reconstituted in vitro and demonstrated remarkable substrate promiscuity for both the NDP-sugar co-substrate as well as the precursor peptide itself. An in vitro method was developed for the production of sublancin and analogues which were subsequently evaluated in bioactivity assays. Finally, a number of putative biosynthetic gene clusters were identified that appear to harbor the necessary genes for production of an S-glycopeptide. An additional S-glycosyltransferase with more favorable intrinsic properties including better expression, stability, and solubility was reconstituted in vitro and demonstrated robust catalytic abilities.

Betalains are plant derived natural pigments that are presently gaining popularity for use as natural colorants in food industry. Although being betalains from red beetroot already used as food colorant (E- 162), these compounds are not as well studied as compared to other natural pigments such as anthocyanins, carotenoids or chlorophylls (I]. Since food additives are on the focus of public interest, it is becoming increasingly important to meet consumers' expectations for natural and healthy products. Hence, the search for new plant-derived colorants for the food industry is still necessary [2]. Betalains were originally called 'nitrogenous anthocyanins', which incorrectly implied structural similarities between the two pigment classes. There are two structurally different types of betalains: the yellow/orange betaxanthins which are the condensation products of betalamic acid and assorted amino compounds, and the red betacyanins which are formed by glycosylation and acylation of cyclo-DOPA [3]. Looking at the chemical structure of the pigment, the addition of an acid to the extraction solvent will increase the affinity of the pigment with the solvent. The aim of this study was to use Gomphrena globosa L. flowers, as an alternative plant source to obtain these pigments and to evaluate the best acid to be used within the extraction procedure. For that purpose three different acids (acetic, hydrochloric and phosphoric acids, all ofthem allowed by the food industry), adjusted at the same pH, were tested during a maceration extraction procedure. After the extraction a purification through C18 column was performed in order to obtain a more concentrate extract in betacyanins. The results were analysed by HPLC-PDA-MSIESI. The betacyanin profile allowed the identification of gomphrenin IIJIII and isogomphrenin IIIIII and the best results were achieved by performing the extraction procedure using hydrochloric acid (6.6 mg/g extract), while phosphoric acid only presented trace amounts of these compounds. When acetic acid was used, the pigment extracted was 6.8 times less (0.97 mg/g extract) when compared to HCI. In conclusion hydrochloric acid can be considered the most suitable acid to be applied in the extraction procedure of these pigments.

L’insuffisance rénale chronique (IRC) se définit par un défaut de filtration glomérulaire et est associée à plusieurs désordres. La perturbation de l’homéostasie glucidique en fait partie. L’homéostasie glucidique est contrôlée principalement par l’insuline, soit l’hormone sécrétée en réponse au glucose par les cellules bêta-pancréatiques contenues dans les îlots de Langerhans. La préservation de la fonction de la cellule bêta est essentielle au maintien de l’homéostasie glucidique. Il a été démontré que la sécrétion de l'insuline est altérée au cours l'IRC, cependant les mécanismes demeurent peu connus. Au cours de l’IRC, l’accumulation chronique de toxines urémiques pourrait contribuer à la défaillance de la cellule bêta. L’urée est une toxine urémique majeure et sa toxicité a été récemment rapportée dans plusieurs tissus. Le but de ce mémoire était donc de vérifier le rôle de l’urée dans la dysfonction de la cellule bêta-pancréatique au cours de l’IRC. Nous avons démontré que l’exposition des îlots de souris à des concentrations pathologiques d’urée entraîne une diminution de la sécrétion d’insuline via l’augmentation du stress oxydant et des O-glycosylations. Ce défaut est dû à une perturbation du métabolisme intracellulaire du glucose. Entre autres, nous avons observé une baisse de la glycolyse associée à la réduction de l’activité enzymatique de la phosphofructokinase-1. Ces résultats démontrent un effet toxique direct de l’urée sur la sécrétion d’insuline et permettent de mieux comprendre le mécanisme de dysfonction de la cellule bêta-pancréatique au cours de l’IRC.

Circulating low density lipoproteins (LDL) are thought to play a crucial role in the onset and development of atherosclerosis, though the detailed molecular mechanisms responsible for their biological effects remain controversial. The complexity of biomolecules (lipids, glycans and protein) and structural features (isoforms and chemical modifications) found in LDL particles hampers the complete understanding of the mechanism underlying its atherogenicity. For this reason the screening of LDL for features discriminative of a particular pathology in search of biomarkers is of high importance. Three major biomolecule classes (lipids, protein and glycans) in LDL particles were screened using mass spectrometry coupled to liquid chromatography. Dual-polarity screening resulted in good lipidome coverage, identifying over 300 lipid species from 12 lipid sub-classes. Multivariate analysis was used to investigate potential discriminators in the individual lipid sub-classes for different study groups (age, gender, pathology). Additionally, the high protein sequence coverage of ApoB-100 routinely achieved (≥70%) assisted in the search for protein modifications correlating to aging and pathology. The large size and complexity of the datasets required the use of chemometric methods (Partial Least Square-Discriminant Analysis, PLS-DA) for their analysis and for the identification of ions that discriminate between study groups. The peptide profile from enzymatically digested ApoB-100 can be correlated with the high structural complexity of lipids associated with ApoB-100 using exploratory data analysis. In addition, using targeted scanning modes, glycosylation sites within neutral and acidic sugar residues in ApoB-100 are also being explored. Together or individually, knowledge of the profiles and modifications of the major biomolecules in LDL particles will contribute towards an in-depth understanding, will help to map the structural features that contribute to the atherogenicity of LDL, and may allow identification of reliable, pathology-specific biomarkers. This research was supported by a Marie Curie Intra-European Fellowship within the 7th European Community Framework Program (IEF 255076). Work of A. Rudnitskaya was supported by Portuguese Science and Technology Foundation, through the European Social Fund (ESF) and "Programa Operacional Potencial Humano - POPH".

Hydroxyproline O-arabinosyltransferases (HPATs) are members of a small, deeply conserved family of plant-specific glycosyltransferases that add arabinose sugars to diverse proteins including cell wall-associated extensins and small signaling peptides. Recent genetic studies in flowering plants suggest that different HPAT homologs have been co-opted to function in diverse species-specific developmental contexts. However, nothing is known about the roles of HPATs in basal plants. We show that complete loss of HPAT function in Arabidopsis thaliana and the moss Physcomitrella patens results in a shared defect in gametophytic tip cell growth. Arabidopsis hpat1/2/3 triple knockout mutants suffer from a strong male sterility defect as a consequence of pollen tubes that fail to fully elongate following pollination. Knocking out the two HPAT genes of Physcomitrella results in larger multicellular filamentous networks due to increased elongation of protonemal tip cells. Physcomitrella hpat mutants lack cell-wall associated hydroxyproline arabinosides and can be rescued with exogenous cellulose, while global expression profiling shows that cell wall-associated genes are severely misexpressed, implicating a defect in cell wall formation during tip growth. Our findings point to a major role for HPATs in influencing cell elongation during tip growth in plants.

Introducción: El tiempo promedio del efecto máximo de la insulina regular rápida en la glucemia postprandial ha sido considerado durante años de 120 minutos. En pacientes con Diabetes Mellitus (DM) que usan insulinas análogas este tiempo y los factores asociados no se encuentran reportados para ser aplicados en el automonitoreo. El objetivo de este estudio fue calcular el tiempo y factores relacionados al efecto máximo de la insulina en la glucemia postprandial. Metodología: Se desarrolló un estudio longitudinal retrospectivo a partir de una fuente secundaria donde se realizó un análisis descriptivo y bivariado con las variables demográficas y clínicas presentes en la población. Resultados: El tiempo promedio del pico máximo de insulina en pacientes con DM1 fue de 78.4 (DE± 16.512) y DM2 75.01(DE± 12.02) minutos. El 75% de la población con DM1 y el 54.2% en DM2 era de sexo femenino, la edad promedio en DM1 era 42.38 años y en DM2 68 años, en cuanto a la categorización del IMC el 50% de la población en DM1 y el 37.5% en DM2 estaban dentro del rango de obesidad y se encontró una relación con respecto al tipo de comida “desayuno-cena” vs el tiempo promedio del efecto máximo de la insulina calculado para ambos grupos (p:0.010). Conclusiones: El tiempo promedio del efecto máximo de la insulina calculado fue menor al tiempo reportado en la literatura clínica de 120 minutos. El tipo de comida principal mostró una relación con el tiempo promedio del efecto máximo en ambos grupos.

Antigen design is generally driven by the need to obtain enhanced stability,efficiency and safety in vaccines.Unfortunately,the antigen modification is rarely proceeded in parallel with analytical tools development characterization.The analytical tools set up is required during steps of vaccine manufacturing pipeline,for vaccine production modifications,improvements or regulatory requirements.Despite the relevance of bioconjugate vaccines,robust and consistent analytical tools to evaluate the extent of carrier glycosylation are missing.Bioconjugation is a glycoengineering technology aimed to produce N-glycoprotein in vivo in E.coli cells,based on the PglB-dependent system by C. jejuni,applied for production of several glycoconjugate vaccines.This applicability is due to glycocompetent E. coli ability to produce site-selective glycosylated protein used,after few purification steps, as vaccines able to elicit both humoral and cell-mediate immune-response.Here, S.aureus Hla bioconjugated with CP5 was used to perform rational analytical-driven design of the glycosylation sites for the glycosylation extent quantification by Mass Spectrometry.The aim of the study was to develop a MS-based approach to quantify the glycosylation extent for in-process monitoring of bioconjugate production and for final product characterization.The three designed consensus sequences differ for a single amino-acid residue and fulfill the prerequisites for engineered bioconjugate more appropriate from an analytical perspective.We aimed to achieve an optimal MS detectability of the peptide carrying the consensus sequences,complying with the well-characterized requirements for N-glycosylation by PglB.Hla carrier isoforms,bearing these consensus sequences allowed a recovery of about 20 ng/μg of periplasmic protein glycosylated at 40%.The SRM-MS here developed was successfully applied to evaluate the differential site occupancy when carrier protein present two glycosites.The glycosylation extent in each glycosite was determined and the difference in the isoforms were influenced either by the overall source of protein produced and by the position of glycosite insertion.The analytical driven design of the bioconjugated antigen and the development of accurate,precise and robust analytical method allowed to finely characterize the vaccine.
