[Abstract] This protocol aims to evaluate folding status of proteins, utilizing peptide:N-glycanase (PNGase) sensitivity. In the cytosol, PNGase works as a deglycosylation-enzyme. N-glycans on unfolded/misfolded proteins are more susceptible to PNGase than N-glycans on folded proteins because of the preference of PNGase to non-native proteins. PNGase is endogenously expressed in various cell types, including HCT116 cells, DT40 cells and mouse embryonic fibroblast cells. Partial deglycosylation by PNGase can be detected by faster migration of band in SDS-PAGE. You can compare tightness of the folding among wild-type and mutant proteins of interest. This method can be used with regular molecular and cell biology equipment, but applied only to glycoproteins.
[摘要] 该协议旨在评估蛋白质的折叠状态，利用肽：N-聚糖酶（PNGase）灵敏度。 在细胞质中，PNGase作为去糖基化酶。 由于PNG酶对非天然蛋白的偏好，解折叠/错折叠蛋白上的N-聚糖比折叠蛋白上的N-聚糖更易受PNG酶的影响。 PNGase在多种细胞类型中内源表达，包括HCT116细胞，DT40细胞和小鼠胚胎成纤维细胞。 通过PNGase的部分去糖基化可以通过在SDS-PAGE中更快的条带迁移来检测。 您可以比较感兴趣的野生型和突变蛋白之间折叠的紧密度。 该方法可以与常规的分子和细胞生物学设备一起使用，但仅应用于糖蛋白。
