Murine sperm initiate fertilization by binding to
specific oligosaccharides linked to the zona pellucida, the specialized matrix coating the egg. Biophysical analyses have revealed the presence
of both high mannose and complex-type N-glycans in murine zona pellucida. The predominant high mannose-type glycan had the composition Man5GlcNAc2, but larger
oligosaccharides of this type were also detected. Biantennary,
triantennary, and tetraantennary complex-type N-glycans
were found to be terminated with the following antennae:
Gal 1-4GlcNAc, NeuAc 2-3Gal 1-4GlcNAc,
NeuGc 2-3Gal 1-4GlcNAc, the Sda antigen
(NeuAc 2-3[GalNAc 1-4]Gal 1-4GlcNAc,
NeuGc 2-3[GalNAc 1-4]Gal 1-4GlcNAc), and terminal GlcNAc.
Polylactosamine-type sequence was also detected on a subset of the
antennae. Analysis of the O-glycans indicated that the
majority were core 2-type
(Gal 1-4GlcNAc 1-6[Gal 1-3]GalNAc). The 1-6-linked
branches attached to these O-glycans were terminated with
the same sequences as the N-glycans, except for terminal GlcNAc. Glycans bearing Gal 1-4GlcNAc 1-6 branches have
previously been suggested to mediate initial murine gamete binding.
Oligosaccharides terminated with GalNAc 1-4Gal have been implicated
in the secondary binding interaction that occurs following the acrosome
reaction. The significant implications of these observations are discussed.
