Abstract
Peptide:N-glycanase (PNGase) is a deglycosylating enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of the β-aspartylglycosylamine bond of aspargine-linked glycopeptides and glycoproteins. Earlier studies from our laboratory indicated that PNGase catalyzed de-N-glycosylation was limited to glycopeptide substrates, but recent reports have demonstrated that it also acts upon full-length misfolded glycoproteins. In this study, we utilized two glycoprotein substrates, yeast carboxypeptidase and chicken egg albumin (ovalbumin), to study the deglycosylation activity of yeast PNGase and its mutants. Our results provide further evidence that PNGase acts upon full-length glycoprotein substrates and clearly establish that PNGase acts only on misfolded or denatured glycoproteinsKeywords
