Abstract:

Both, culture-derived and metacyclic trypomastigotes of Trypanosoma cruzi shed a glycoprotein, the shed acute phase antigen, that is responsible for the trans-sialidase activity. In the present work the structure of the glycosylphosphatidylinositol membrane anchor of the trans-sialidase isolated from metacyclic forms was determined. Parasites were metabolically labelled with [9, 10(n)3H]-palmitic acid and the glycoprotein was purified by immunoprecipitation with a monoclonal antibody directed against the repetitive aminoacid sequence. Treatment of the glycoprotein with phosphatidylinositol phospholipase C (PI-PLC) from Bacillus thuringiensis rendered a lipid that comigrated in TLC with a standard of ceramide. No alkylglycerol was detected in contrast with the results previously obtained for the trans-sialidase isolated from culture-derived trypomastigotes where both lipids were found. Chemical and chromatographic analysis showed that the lipid moiety is palmitoyldihydrosphingosine with a minor amount of stearoyldihydrosphingosine. The glycan constituent of the glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchor was analysed by nitrous acid deamination of the aqueous phase of the PI-PLC treatment, followed by reduction with NaBH4 and hydrolysis of the phosphodiester with aqueous hydrofluoric acid. A major oligosaccharide was obtained and enzymatic treatment with exoglycosidases and further chromatography in a high pH anion exchange system showed that the trimannosyl core backbone is substituted by an α-galactose. A comparison between the lipid constituent of the glycosylphosphatidylinositol anchor of several proteins and their spontaneous shedding by the action of an endogenous PI-PLC was made.
