Identification of core fucosylated glycans and antennary fucosylated glycans by exoglycosidase and MALDI-FT-ICR-MS. The TPNG profile without core fucosidase treatment was compared to the profile after treatment, within (A) the m/z range of 1,200–3,200 and (B) the m/z range of 3,120–4,200. Core fucosylated glycans [red m/z values] are converted to their corresponding afucosylated glycans [purple m/z values], upon core fucosidase treatment. Only the antennary fucosylated glycans [blue m/z values] and the antennary fucose isomers of the mixed fucose isomeric (core or antennary fucosylation) glycans [green m/z values] remain after core fucosidase treatment. All m/z values of annotated glycans belong to [M + Na]+ ions. The description of the glycan cartoons are shown in Figure 1.
