This report describes the structures of high-mannose-type N-linked oligosaccharides in glycoproteins synthesized by the microfilariae of Diroflcrio immitis. Microfilariae of D. immitis were incubated in vitro in media containing 2-(3H) mannose to allow metabolic radiolabeling of the oligosaccharide moieties of newly synthesized glycoproteins. Glycopeptides were prepared from the radiolabeled glycoproteins by digestion with pronase and fractionation by chromatography on concanavalin A Sepharose. Thirty eight percent of 2- (3H) mannose incorporated into the microalariae of D. immitis glycopeptides was recovered in high mannose-type asparagine-linked oligosaccharides which were bound to the immobilized lectin. Upon treatment of 2-(3H) mannose labeled glycopeptides with endo - β- N- acetylglu co saminidase H , the high mannose type chains were released and their structures were determined by high performance liquid chromatography and exoglycosidase digestion. The major species of high mannose-type chains synthesized by microfilariae of D. immitis have the composition Man5GlcNAc2, Man6ClcNAc2, Man7GlcNAc2, and Man8GlcNAc2. Structural analyses indicate that these oligosaccharides are similar to high mannose-type chains synthesized by vertebrates.
