Mucin type O-glycans with core 2 branches are distinct from nonbranched O-glycans, and the
amount of core 2 branched O-glycans changes dramatically
during T cell differentiation. This oligosaccharide is synthesized only
when core 2 These results, taken together, strongly suggest that the predominance
of core 2 branched oligosaccharides in those cells expressing C2GnT is
due to the fact that C2GnT is located earlier in the Golgi than

-1,6-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase (C2GnT)
is present, and the expression of this glycosyltransferase is highly
regulated. To understand how O-glycan synthesis is
regulated by the orderly appearance of glycosyltransferases that form
core 2 branched O-glycans, the subcellular localization of
C2GnT was determined by using antibodies generated that are specific to C2GnT. The studies using confocal light microscopy demonstrated that
C2GnT was localized mainly in cis to
medial-cisternae of the Golgi. We then converted C2GnT to a
trans-Golgi enzyme by replacing its Golgi retention signal
with that of
-2,6-sialyltransferase, which resides in
trans-Golgi. Chinese hamster ovary cells expressing wild
type C2GnT and the chimeric C2GnT were then subjected to oligosaccharide analysis. The results obtained clearly indicate that
the conversion of C2GnT into a trans-Golgi enzyme
resulted in a substantial decrease of core 2 branched
oligosaccharides.
-2,3-sialyltransferase that competes with C2GnT for the common
substrate. Furthermore, alteration of Golgi localization renders the
chimeric C2GnT much less efficient in synthesizing core 2 branched
oligosaccharides, indicating the critical role of orderly subcellular
localization of glycosyltransferases.
