The influence of N-linked glycans on the stability of glycoproteins has been studied using horseradish peroxidase isoenzyme C (HRP), which contains eight asparagine-linked glycans. HRP was deglycosylated (d-HRP) with trifluoromethanesulfonic acid and purified to an enzymatically active homogeneous protein containing (GlcNAc)2 glycans. The thermal stability of HRP and d-HRP at pH 6.0, measured by residual activity, was indistinguishable and showed transition midpoints at 57 degrees C, whereas the unfolding in guanidinium chloride at pH 7.0, 23 degrees C was 2-3-fold faster for d-HRP than for HRP. The results are compatible with a glycan-induced decrease in the dynamic fluctuation of the polypeptide chain.
