Four oligosaccharide fractions were isolated and purified from the kidney of goats affected with beta-mannosidosis by repeating Bio-Gel P-2 column chromatography. The structural characterization of the purified oligosaccharide fractions (oligosaccharides A, B, C1,2, and D) included sugar composition analysis by gas chromatography, sugar sequence analysis by mass spectrometry of their permethylated alditols, and by methylation analysis as well as anomeric configuration studies by exoglycosidase digestions. Oligosaccharides A and B were the major oligosaccharides accumulating in the kidney and were elucidated as Man beta 1-4GlcNAc and Man beta 1-4GlcNAc beta 1-4GlcNAc, respectively (Matsuura, F., Laine, R. A., and Jones, M. Z. (1981) Arch. Biochem. Biophys. 211, 485-493). Oligosaccharide C1,2 was a mixture of two tetrasaccharides and oligosaccharide D was a pentasaccharide. The proposed structures are: oligosaccharide C1, Man beta 1-4GlcNAc beta 1-4Man beta 1-4GlcNAc; oligosaccharide C2, Man alpha 1-6Man beta 1-4GlcNAc beta 1-4GlcNAc; oligosaccharide D, Man beta 1-4GlcNAc beta 1-4Man beta 1-4GlcNAc beta 1-4GlcNAc. Tetrasaccharide C1 and pentasaccharide D are heretofore undiscovered oligosaccharides. There is no precedent for these structures in glycoproteins or other glycoconjugates. One possibility which accounts for the presence of oligosaccharide C1 and D is that a bisecting N-acetylglucosamine (the beta-N-acetylglucosamine residue linked at the C-4 position of the beta-mannosyl residue of the trimannosyl core of the asparagine-linked sugar chains) is linked by a beta-mannosyl residue. Moreover, the detection of oligosaccharides containing two N-acetylglucosamine residues at the reducing terminus, together with those containing a single N-acetylglucosamine residue, is further corroboration of species-specific differences in glycoprotein catabolic pathways (Hancock, L. W., and Dawson, G. (1984) Fed. Proc. 43, 1552) or in glycoprotein structures.
