Sequence length 462 AA
Subcellular LocationIntegral membrane protein
FunctionMembrane residing ectoenzyme. Due to the likely pseudoperiplasmic location, cytochrome c-like function is proposed analogous to the situation in Paracoccus denitrificans linking pseudoperiplasmic redox metabolism to membrane-residing electron transport systems. Cytochrome b558/566 is significantly up-regulated under certain organotrophic growth conditions in combination with low oxygen tension.

Technique(s) used for Glycosylation DetectionChemical deglycosylation (with TFMS) and mass shift on SDS-PAGE.
Technique(s) used for Glycosylated Residue(s) DetectionMALDI-MS, 1H-NMR spectroscopy of trypsin/pronase digested, anion-exchange HPLC purified glycan linked dipeptides.
Protein Glycosylation- ImplicationThe increased glycosylation of Cytochrome b558/566 subunit A has been suggested to have a role in the protection of enzyme against the harsh acidic conditions (pH 2 - 2.5) of S. acidocaldarius, in its thermoacidophilic habitat. Upon glycosylation with a low pKa sulfonate carrying glycans the protein achieves a negative surface potential at the locus of the cytochrome. The glycosylation of a major internal loop region also may improve resistance against hydrolytic cleavage which is even better th
Glycan Information
Glycan AnnotationLinkage: β-GlcNAc-Asn.
64-kDa glycoprotein expresses 17% glycosylation. Total sugar analysis revealed the relative proportions of approximately 7:2:2 for mannose, glucose and GlcNAc.
N-linked hexasaccharide units (at least seven)- two residues each of Man and GlcNAc (one trisubstituted) and one residue each of Glc and 6-deoxy-6-sulfoglucose (6-sulfoquinovose- a rare acidic sugar).

Technique(s) used for Glycan IdentificationIdentification of oligosaccharides using Gel Chromatography and GLC-MS (PNGase F treatment followed by HPAEC analysis). Glycan structure is elucidated with the help of 1H-NMR spectrum from two-dimensional 1H, 1H correlation NMR Spectroscopy . Linkage analysis was carried out using 13C NMR Chemical Shift analysis.

Additional CommentsProvides first extensive study and a structure for oligosaccharide attached to a crenarchaeotal glycoprotein. The protein attached hexasaccharide is unique in terms of the presence of a trisubstituted N acetylglucosamine residue and a rare acidic residue Qui6S (sulfonated sugar).
Qui6S like sugar has previously been observed only in glycolipids of chloroplast and photosynthetic bacteria. Only other case where sufated sugar has been observed is H. salinaium.
