PNGase F (CarboClip)

178,001.365,00

Introduction: CarboClip is a recombinant peptide-N-Glycosidase F (PNGase F), from Elizabethkingia sp, overexpressed in E. coli that contains a hexahistidine tag in its C-term and cleaves between the GlcNAc and asparagine residues of high mannose, hybrid, and complex oligosaccharides from N-linked glycoproteins. CarboClip is provided glycerol-free as a lyophilized powder containing Tris-HCl, NaCl, and Na2EDTA.

Unit Definition: One unit is defined as the amount of enzyme required to remove > 95% of the carbohydrate from 10 µg of denatured RNase B in 1 hour at 37°C in a total reaction volume of 10 µL.  

Unit Definition Assay: 10 µg of RNase B are denatured with glycoprotein denaturing buffer (0.5% SDS, 40 mM DTT) at 100°C for 10 minutes. After the addition of NP-40 and buffer (50 mM Sodium Phosphate pH 7.5), two-fold dilutions of PNGase F (1 μL) are added and the reaction mixture is incubated for 1 hour at 37°C. The separation of reaction products is visualized by SDS-PAGE 12 % acrylamide and stained with Coomassie blue. 

Storage: Lyophilized powder: -80 °C and -20 °C >1 year. At room temperature 10 days. Reconstituted protein should be stored at 4 °C and is stable for 2-3 months.

Glycosylation of Membrane Proteins: Removal of N-linked glycans from membrane protein samples using this enzyme has been described by Contessotto et al. Matrix Biol. 2019 (See applications section below)

Description

Deglycosylation Protocol

PNGase F Deglycosylation Protocol

Denaturing deglycosylation of 100 µg of glycoproteins and analysis

  1. Add 100 µg of glycoprotein and fill with UltraPure H2O (milliQ, NanoPure, etc) until 70 µl.
  2. Add 10 µl of Denaturing Buffer (5% SDS, 400 mM DTT).
  3. Incubate at 100°C for 10 minutes.
  4. Add 10 µl of reaction buffer (500 mM Sodium Phosphate (pH 7.5)) and 10 µl of 10% NP-40.
  5. Add 0.1 µl of Carboclip PNGase F
  6. Incubate at 37°C for 30 min.
    (Depending on the glycoprotein up to overnight incubation could be necessary)
  7. Analyze by SDS-PAGE

Non-denaturing deglycosylation of Antibody Glycosylation:

Glycan analysis mass spectrometry and MALDI-TOF compatible application.

1. IgG desalting using an Amicon Ultra-0.5 mL Centrifugal Filter device MWCO 30 kDa:
Add your IgG sample to the filter device. If the volume is less than 400 µL, add ultra-pure water up to 400 µL and spin the sample for 5 minutes at 9,000x g at room temperature. Discard the flow-through. Repeat for a total of three times.
Desalting of antibodies is recommended as the presence of salts and detergents could affect the MALDI-TOF-MS acquisition.
2. Antibody Deglycosylation:
Add 3-6 µL of reconstituted CarboClip enzyme for each 50-200 µg of IgG to deglycosylate. Mix the sample by flicking (do not vortex or pipette up and down). Incubate the mixture at 60°C for 1 hour with gentle shaking.
For efficient deglycosylation of the Fab region, IgG denaturation could be necessary.
