We report ELISA studies of the glycosaminoglycan binding properties of recombinant human glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF). We demonstrate relatively high affinity binding as soluble heparin competes with an IC50 of 0.1 micro g/ml. The binding of GDNF to heparin is particularly dependent on the presence of 2-O-sulfate groups. Highly sulfated heparan sulfate is also an effective competitor for GDNF binding. We also show that heparin at low concentrations protects GDNF from proteolytic modification by an endoprotease and also promotes the binding of GDNF to its receptor polypeptide, GFRalpha1. In both of these actions, 2-O-desulfated heparin is less effective. Considered overall, these findings provide strong support for a hypothesis that the bioactivity of GDNF during prenatal development is essentially dependent on the binding of this growth factor to 2-O-sulfate-rich heparin-related glycosaminoglycan.
