A procedure for the enzymatic synthesis of neoglycoenzymes is described. The gene encoding endo-beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase from Arthrobacter proto-phormiae (Endo-A) was overexpressed in Escherichia coli as a fusion protein linked to glutathione S-transferase (GST). GST-Endo-A fusion was extracted as a soluble protein. The fusion protein was purified to homogeneity with glutathione-Sepharose 4B and showed transglycosylation activity toward high-mannose-type glycopeptides without removing the GST moiety. The GST-Endo-A immobilized on glutathione-Sepharose 4B retained its transglycosylation activity. The immobilized enzyme could transfer (Man)(6)GlcNAc en bloc to partially deglycosylated ribonuclease B without damaging its enzyme activity. The immobilized GST-Endo-A should be very useful for synthesizing active neoglycoenzymes attached with homogeneous N-linked oligosaccharides.
