Comparative analysis of the E. coli expressed human and bovine B4GalT1 mutants for transferring GalNAc to G0 antibody glycoform. A) time course profile of the hB4GalT1-Y285L and bB4GalT1-Y289L catalyzed transfer of GalNAc to G0 antibody glycoform (2) to yield the LacdiNAc trastuzumab (3) (n = 2). B) Charge deconvoluted LC-MS of the Fc domain of the GalNAc2-trastuzumab (3) after IdeS treatment (expected, 25,635.7 Da, found 25637.0 Da) Enzymatic reaction conditions: A mixture of the G0-trastuzumab (2) (15 mg/ml), UDP-GalNAc (10 eq), and hB4GalT1-Y285L mutant or bB4GalT1-Y289L mutant (%, w/w, enzyme: antibody) was incubated in a buffer containing 10 mM MnCl2 (pH 7.4) at 37 °C. The reactions were monitored by LC-MS analysis of the Fc fragment released by IdeS treatment of the antibodies. Data are presented as mean ± s.d., n=2 biological replicates.
