Determination of GPI glycan structures in human PrPC from KI mice by LC-ESI-MS/MS analysis. A, left panel, the MS/MS spectra of the m/z 788.722+ ion shown in Fig. S1B and the identities of fragment ions. Right panel, the corresponding structure (MW 1576.2) of a C-terminal peptide with GPI containing a HexNAc-Hex side chain. B, left panel, the MS/MS spectra of the m/z 870.252+ ion. Right panel, the corresponding structure (MW 1738.3) of a C-terminal peptide with GPI containing Hex and HexNAc-Hex side chains. C, left panel, the MS/MS spectra of the m/z 934.32+ ion. Right panel, the corresponding structure (MW 1867.4) of a C-terminal peptide with GPI containing a HexNAc-Hex-Neu5Ac side chain. In A–C, all annotated fragment ions are monovalent cations. D, percentages of GPI glycan species in KI mouse brains. Core only, Core + Hex (fourth Man), and Core + HexNAc (GalNAc) were not detected.
