Substrate specificity and inhibition of UDP-GlcNAc:GlcNAc beta 1-2Man alpha 1-6R beta 1,6-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase V using synthetic substrate analogues.

UDP-GlcNAc:GlcNAc beta 1-2Man alpha 1-6R (GlcNAc to Man) beta 1,6- N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase V (GlcNAc-T V) adds a GlcNAc beta 1-6 branch to bi- and triantennary N-glycans. An increase in this activity has been associated with cellular transformation, metastasis and differentiation. We have used synthetic substrate analogues to study the substrate specificity and inhibition of the partially purified enzyme from hamster kidney and of extracts from hen oviduct membranes and acute myeloid leukaemia leukocytes. All compounds with the minimum structure GlcNAc beta 1-2Man alpha 1-6Glc/Man beta-R were good substrates for GlcNAc-T V. The presence of structural elements other than the minimum trisaccharide structure affected GlcNAc-T V activity without being an absolute requirement for activity. Substrates with a biantennary structure were preferred over linear fragments of biantennary structures. Kinetic analysis showed that the 3-hydroxyl of the Man alpha 1-3 residue and the 4-hydroxyl of the Man beta- residue of the Man alpha 1-6(Man alpha 1-3)Man beta-R N-glycan core are not essential for catalysis but influence substrate binding. GlcNAc beta 1-2(4,6-di-O-methyl-)Man alpha 1-6Glc beta-pnp was found to be an inhibitor of GlcNAc-T V from hamster kidney, hen oviduct microsomes and acute and chronic myeloid leukaemia leukocytes.
