Ascorbate oxidase from the fungus Acremonium sp. HI-25 is a copper-containing glycoprotein that catalyzes the oxidation of ascorbic acid to dehydroascorbic acid. Monosaccharide composition analysis showed that the enzyme contains exclusively N-linked oligosaccharide chains. Following liberation by hydrazinolysis/re-N-acetylation, and fractionation by HPLC on anion exchange, Amide-80 and/or octadecyl silica columns after derivatization with p-aminobenzoic ethyl ester, the structures of the twelve major neutral oligosaccharides were identified by F AB-MS, 400 MHz 1 H-NMR, methylation analysis, mild acid hydrolysis, and/or sequential exoglycosidase digestions. A cremonium sp. ascorbate oxidase was found to consist of high-mannose type oligosaccharides (76.3 41., ) having 4 to 9 mannose residues and a series of novel o-galactofuranose-containing high-mannose type oligosaccharides (18.6%) with the following structure.

Ascorbate oxidase [EC 1.1 0.3.3J (AOD), which catalyzes the oxidation of ascorbic acid to dehydroascorbic acid, is an enzyme widely found in higher plants, such as squash I)
and cucumber. 2) Ascorbate oxidase is used as an analytical reagent for clinical and food analyses of ascorbate. However, since ascorbate oxidase from cucumber, which is most commonly used as an analytical reagent, is unstable, a more stable ascorbate oxidase is required.
Efforts to find microorganisms producing ascorbate oxidase have been made. 3
- 5) Although the occurrence of ascorbate oxidase in microorganisms has been reported, i.e., in Alyrothecium l'eITlICaria 3A
) and Aerohacter aerogenes, 5)
the enzyme has not been purified or characterized. Recently, M unto el al. O
) succeeded in isolating a strain, identified as Acremoniul1l sp. HI-25, producing an ascorbate oxidase. and purified it with no laccase activity. The ascorbate oxidase from AcremOlliul1l sp. is a monomeric glycoprotein with a molecular mass of 80 kDa containing four copper atoms per molecule. 6
) while the ascorbate oxidases from cucumber and squash are dimeric glycoproteins with molecular masses of 130--140 kDa and containing eight copper atoms per molecule. 7
,8) Hirose et al. 9) reported that the coordination structures of types I and 2 copper atoms in ascorbate oxidase from Acre1110nium sp. are very similar to
t To \vhom correspondence should be addressed.
those in the cucumber enzyme. Furthermore, they have shown that the apparent Km and kcat for ascorbic acid of the ascorbate oxidase from Acremoniul11 sp, are closely similar to those of the monomeric unit of the ascorbate oxidase isolated from cucumber.
The primary structures of the ascorbate oxidases from cucumber and squash have been identified by eDNA cloning,7,lO) The amino acid sequences deduced from the nucleotide sequences of the cDNAs for the squash and cucumber enzymes had 80% identity, with four and three possible N-glycosylation sites, respectively, D'Andrea et al. 81
analyzed the primary structures of the N-linked sugar chains of ascorbate oxidase of squash to be Man:(1 ~6(Xyl/3I ~ 2)(Man:(1 ~3)ManIJl ~4GIcNAc{J~4GIcNAc. However, no report is available on the primary structure of Acrel11oniul11 sp, ascorbate oxidase. Glycosylation is knO\vn to be required for stability, catalytic activity, secretion, and so on, Thus, identification of the sugar chain structures as well as the amino acid sequences of microorganism ascorbate oxidases may be valuable.
In this paper, we report the structures of N-linked oligosaccharides of the ascorbate oxidase from Acremoniul11 sp, and the presence of novel galactofuranose-containing highmannose type oligosaccharides.

'o-dimensional mapping analysis (20-HPLC) of the individual ABEE-oligosaccharides was done as described previously. I 5. I'll
Monosaccharide analysis. Monosaccharide compositions were analyzed by gas liquid chromatography (GLC) of trimethylsilyl methyl glycosides
obtained by methanolysis of native AOD in 1.5 M methanolic HCI. 20) The absolute configurations of monosaccharides were identified by GLC of trimethylsilyl L-2-octyl glycosides according to the method of Takano et al. 211 G LC of the trimethylsilyl methyl glycosides and trimethylsilyl L-2-octyl glycosides was done on a OB-5 fused silica capillary column (0.32 mm x 25 m, J & W Scientific. U.S.A.) in a Hewlett-Packard 5840A gas chromatograph. The column temperature was programmed from 50C to 170 C at 20 Cmin. and then to 250C at J Cimino
Methylation analysis. ABEE-oligosaccharides were permethylated by the method of Ciucanu and Kerek. 22
) Each methylated sample was hydrolyzed. reduced. and acetylated by the method of Liang el al.. 23 ) and the resulting partially methylated alditol acetates were analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GCiMS QP-I 000. Shimadzu Corp .. Japan) as previously described. 141 Authentic IA-di-O-acetyl-2.3.5.6-tetraO-methylgalactitol was prepared from methyl-galactofuranoside in a similar manner to that described above.
Digestion with en:ymes. Digestion of ABEE-oligosaccharides with jack bean l-mannosidase, jack bean fJ-galactosidase. jack bean fJ-iV-acetylhexosaminidase. and A, saitoi rx-mannosidase L respectively, was done as described, 141 Digestion with endo-fJ-lV-acetylglucosaminidase H was done as described by Mizuochi el 01. 24)
Partial acid hydrolysis. Mild acid hydrolysis of ABEE-oligosaccharides. to hydrolyze galactofuranoside linkages but not hexopyranosidic linkages. was done in 0.01 N HCI (100e. 30 min). Under these conditions. about 60(~/o of the galactofuranoside (Gal/) residues were selectively hydrolyzed without degradation of the ester linkages in ABEE. Treatment with 0.02 N
HCI at 100C for 150 min was also done to hydrolyze galactofuranosidic linkages in free N-linked oligosaccharides. which were prepared from AOD by hydrazinolysis. 251 The reaction mixture after mild acid hydrolysis was evaporated to dryness under reduced pressure and then the residue was repeatedly evaporated with water. The residue was then tagged with ABEE and analyzed by 2D-HPLC.
Analysis of the isomeric structures (~lhigh-m(lnnose Iype oligvsacc!llIridi's. We recently found that separation of the isomeric structures of highmannose type oligosaccharides with the same number of mannose residues can be done by 20-HPLC analysis of ABEE derivatives of oligosaccharides with a single GIcNAc residue at their reducing end (unpublished results). Thus. in this study, ABEE-derivatives of high-man nose type oligosaccharides having a chitobiose structure at their reducing terminus were first digested with endo-/J-N-acetylglucosaminidase H. The resulting counterparts having a single GIcNAc residue at the reducing terminus were analyzed by 2D-HPLC after ABEE derivatization.
40() Mil: III-,VM R ,Ipectrometry. ABEE-oligosaccharides were repeatedly exchanged in 2H 20 (99.96% atom% 2H). with intermediate lyophilization. The I H-NMR spectra were recorded with a Bruker AM 400 spectrometer operating at 400 MHz. with a probe temperature of 40C. Chemical shifts (<5) are expressed in ppm relative to internal acetone in 2H zO (<5=2.221 ppm).
Fast-alom homhardment mass ,Ipeclrometry. Positive ion fast-atom bombardment mass spectra (FAB-MS) were obtained with a JEOL JMS-HX 100 mass spectrometer as described elsewhere. 141
Results Monosaccharide analysis
Monosaccharide analysis of AOD showed that the enzyme contained man nose, galactose, and N-acetylglucosamine in a molar ratio of 7.2: 3,4 : 1.0, suggesting that the enzyme consists of high-mannose type and unique galactose-containing high-mannose type oligosaccharides. On the basis of the carbohydrate content (10 % (w/w)) and the molecular mass of the enzyme, it was estimated that AOD had four sugar chains per molecule.
Pattern of N-Iinked oligosaccharides in A OD Oligosaccharides were liberated from AOD by hydra
zinolysis.ire-N-acetylation and then labeled with ABEE.

N-Linked Sugar Chains of Acremonium sp. Ascorbate Oxidase 1125
Upon anion-exchange HPLC on a OEAE-5PW column, the ABEE-oligosaccharides were separated into neutral (fraction ~h and acidic fractions (fraction AI) in the molar ratio of 88.5 : 11.5 (Fig. 1). The elution position of AI corresponded to monophosphoryl high-mannose type oligosaccharides. However, no further structural analysis of this fraction was done due to the limited amounts of the sample. In this study, structural analysis of the oligo saccharides in fraction N was done. Upon size fractionation HPLC on an Amide-80 column, fraction N gave rise to twelve peaks, denoted as Na-NI, as shown in Fig. 2. The relative proportions of the fractions were: Na, 13.1 %; Nb, 2.4%; Nc, 4.9%; Nd, 2.1 %; Ne, 29.5%; Nf, to.3 % ; Ng, 16.0%; Nh, 2.5%; Ni, 7.0%; Nj, 1.4%; Nk, 7.1 %; and NI, 3.6%. Monosaccharide analysis of each fraction showed that Na, Ne, Ng, Ni, Nk, and NI consisted of only man nose and N-acetylglucosamine, and fractions Nc, Nf, Nh, and Nj of

GlcNAc2-ABEE, and Man q GlcNAc2-ABEE, respectively (Fig. 3). These oligosaccharides were further characterized by sequential exoglycosidase digestion coupled with 20-HPLC analysis. When fractions Ng, Ni, Nk, and NI were digested with A. saitoi ~-mannosidase I, they each gave a single peak, with the same mobility as Ne, that comigrated with standard Man sGlcNAc2-ABEE (Fig. 3). Subsequent treatment of the product and Ne with jack bean ~-mannosidase produced Man 1GlcNAc2-ABEE. ABEE-oligosaccharide Na was stable as to A. saitoi ~-mannosidase I digestion, but converted to Man 1GlcNAc2-ABEE on jack bean~-mannosidase digestion. On the basis of these results together with their behavior on 20-HPLC analysis, these oligosaccharides were established to be typical highmannose type oligosaccharides with four to nine mannose residues, as shown in Table II.
Further characterization of the predominant oligosaccharides, Na, Ne, and Ng, was done by 400 MHz 1 HNMR analysis. The chemical shift values of structural reporter-group protons (Table I) were compared with those previously reported. 26

The assignments given in Table I are based on comparison with appropriate oligosaccharides. t4.26.27) The structural reporter-group signals of oligosaccharide Ne completely match those of the corresponding residues in Man:x 1-+6-(Man,:x1-+3)Man:xI-+6(Man:xI-+3)ManfJl -+4GIcNAcfJl-+4GlcNAc-ABEE. In the spectrum ofNa. the H-I signal for Man-4' showed a significant downfield shift and H-2 for Man-4' an upfield shift as compared to those for the corresponding residues in Ne, indicating the deletion of a Maned -+6 (Man-B) residue from Ne. Thus, oligosaccharide Na was identified as Man:xI-+3Man:xI-+6(Man:xI-+3)Man{JI-+4GlcNAcfJl-+4GlcNAc-ABEE (Table II). As to oligosaccharide Ng, the H-I and H-2 signals for Man-4 underwent downfield shifts characteristic of the introduction of a Man-C into the :x-( 1-+ 2)-linkage at the C -2 position of oligosaccharide Ne. Furthermore, Man-C is characterized by its H-I «)=5.055ppm) and H-2 «5=4.067ppm) signals. Thus, the structure of Ng was deduced to be as shown in Table II.
Since the amounts of Ni, Nk, and Nt were too low for t H-NMR, their structures were further analyzed by the 2D-HPLC technique after their conversion to ABEE-oligosaccharides with a single GlcNAc residue at their reducing end. The endo-fJ-N-acetylglucosaminidase H digest of fraction Ni gave two peaks corresponding to Man:x 1-+ 2Man:x1-+6(Man:xI-+3)Man:xI-+6(Man:xI-+2Man:xI-+3)Manf31-+4GlcNAc-ABEE (Man 7GlcNAc t-I-ABEE) and Man:x1-+6(Man:xI-+3)Man:xI-+6(Man:xI-+2Man:xI-+2Man:x1-+3)ManfJI-+4GlcNAc-ABEE (Man 7GlcNAc t -IIIABEE) obtained from :x-mannosidosis urine (data not shown) in a molar ratio of approximately 2: 1 (Table II). The endo-fJ-N-acetylglucosaminidase H digests of Nk and Nt each gave a single peak corresponding to Man:xI-+2-

These results suggested that the galactose-containing oligosaccharides had a common core structure. Positive ion FAB-MS and monosaccharide analysis indicated that oligosaccharide X had the composition, Galt Man 2GlcNAc-GlcNAc-ABEE (data not shown). Methylation analysis showed 2,3,5,6-tetra-O-methvlgalactitol, 3,4,6-tri-O-methylmannitol, 2,3,4-tri-O-meth'ylmannitol, and 3,6-di-O-methyl-2-N-methylacetamido-2-deoxyglucitol in a molar ratio of I : I : 1 : I, suggesting that the galactose residue was of the furanose form and linked to the C-2 position of the nonreducing terminal mannose residue of Man:xI-+6Manf3I-+4GlcNAcf3I-+4GlcNAcABEE. To examine the presence of a hexofuranosyllinkage. which is more acid-labile than a hexopyranose linkage, oligosaccharide X was hydrolyzed with mild acid and then the hydrolyzate was analyzed by HPLC.

150 min)2S) cleaved the ester linkage present in ABEE as well as the galactofuranose linkages, hydrolysis under milder conditions (0.01 N HC!, 1 OOJC, 30 min) was done for ABEEoligosaccharide X. As shown in Fig. 4, approximately 60% of X was converted to an ABEE-oligosaccharide comigrating with authentic Man:xI-6Manpl-4GlcNAcpl-4GlcNAc-ABEE.
In a separate experiment, free oligosaccharides prepared from AOD by hydrazinolysis were hydrolyzed with mild acid under the reported conditions (0.02 N HCL 100'lC, 150 min), and the hydrolyzate was derivatized with ABEE before HPLC analysis. Peaks Nc, Nf, Nh, and Nj in Fig. 2 were completely converted to Na, Ne, Ng, and Ni, respectively. It was, therefore, concluded that galactose was in the furanose form.
To identify the absolute configuration, free galactose obtained on mild acid hydrolysis was analyzed by GLC as the trimethylsilyl L-2-octyl glycoside. It gave a single peak coeluting with standard trimethylsilyl L-2-octyl-D-galactoside, indicating the configuration of the galactose to be D.
To identify the anomeric configuration of the galactofuranse residue, oligosaccharide X was analyzed by 1 HNMR (Fig. 5). Relevant H-l and H-2 chemical shifts for this oligosaccharide are listed in Table I together with the reference compound. The spectrum contained three anomeric proton signals of equal intensity, pointing to a single component. The H-I signal for GlcNAc-l was not recognizable due to the overlapping with H 20. The H-l signal at c5=4.751 ppm and the H-2 signal at c5=4.073 ppm are indicative of the presence of f3-linked Man (Man-3) substituted at its C-6 position (Table I). The signals at c5 = 5.045 ppm (11.2 < 1.8 Hz) and c5 = 5.105 ppm (11.2 = 2.0 Hz) can therefore be ascribed to H-I of either Man-4' or Gall

Monosal.:l.:haride residues are numbered the same as those in Table I. Spectra were recorded in 2H 1 0 solution at 40 C. Chemical shifts are expressed in ppm with referenl.:e to internal al.:etone (c5 = 2.221 ppm).
2D-COSY NMR analysis of oligosaccharide X showed a cross-peak between the signals at c5 = 5.045 ppm and c5 = 4.062 ppm. It had been reported that C-2 substitution of the non reducing terminal mannose residue (Man-A) of Man 6 _ 8GlcNAc2 with et-galactofuranose or et-mannose gave rise to a large downfield shift (,1c5 = 0.42 ppm) of the H-l for a mannose residue. 26 - 29) However. no such large shift was observed on the C-2 substitution of the nonreducing terminal man nose residue (Man-4') of Man 2-GlcNAc2 by a galactofuranose residue (Table I), suggesting the anomeric form of Galfto be {J. Substitution at C-2 of Man-4 or 4' by a f3-GlcNAc residue in complex type oligosaccharides causes only small increases in the shifts for their H-l atoms (,1c5=0.01 1-0.015 ppm), but significant increases for their H-2 atoms (,1c5 = 0.12-0.14 ppm). 30) In this instance, the signals at c5 = 5.045 ppm and c5 = 4.062 ppm are tentatively assigned to H-I and H-2 for Man-4' substituted at C-2 by f3-GalJ: respectively, as compared to those for the corresponding residues in Man 2GlcNAc2. The signal at c5 = 5.105 ppm can. therefore, be assigned to H-I for the Galf residue. The coupling constant value of H-l for the Galf residue (11.2 = 2.0 Hz) is close to that of methyl {1-galactofuranoside (11.2 = 2.0 Hz), but different from those of methyl :x-galactofuranoside (J 1.2 = 3.7 Hz) and galactofuranose residues linked to Man-A in various high-mannose type oligosaccharides (11.2 =4.7 HZ).28.29, Taking these observations into account, the anomeric configuration of galactofuranose is proposed to be {1.

galactofuranose residue may occur in several possible ring conformations. this assignment is tentative in the absence of an authentic standard. On the basis of these results. the common core oligosaccharide present in all galactosecontaining oligosaccharides was characterized as Galfpl-2Man~I-6Man/Jl-4GIcNAc/Jl-4GIcNAc-ABEE.
The most prominent oligosaccharide, Nf (GalfMansGlcNAc2), was resistant to A. sailoi ~-mannosidase I digestion. Upon mild acid hydrolysis, this oligosaccharide produced an ABEE-oligosaccharide comigrating with authentic Man sGlcNAc 2-ABEE (Fig. 4), with the release of galactofuranose. The degalactosylated oligosaccharide released four mannose residues on digestion with jack bean~-mannosidase to produce Man IGlcNAc2-ABEE, confirming that the degalactosylated oligosaccharide was a high-man nose type oligosaccharide with five mannose residues. Methylation analysis of Nf showed the presence of 3 mol of 2.3,4.6-tetra-O-methylmannitoL I mol of 2,3,5,6-tetra-0-methylglactitol, I mol of 2,4-di-0-methylmannitoL I mol of 4-mono-O-methylmannitol, and I mol of 3.6-di-0-methyl-2-N-methylacetamido-2-deoxyglucitol. From these results together with the results for oligosaccharide X, the structure ofNfwas proposed to be Man,~1-6(Man~I-3)(Galf/Jl-2)Man~I-6(Man~I-3)Man/JI -4GlcNAc/JI -4GlcNAc-ABEE. 1 H-NMR of Nf is shown in Fig. 5. Six anomeric proton signals of equal intensity were observed. The three anomeric proton signals at b = 4.762 ppm, b =
5.106ppm, and b=4.919ppm can be assigned to H-I of Man-3, Man-4, and Man-B, respectively, as compared to those of authentic MansGlcNAc2-ABEE. The signal at () = 5.035 ppm is assigned to H-I of Man-4' as compared to that of GalfMan2GlcNAc2-ABEE. 2D-COSY NMR showed a cross-peak between the signals at () = 5.035 ppm and b = 4.137 ppm, as in the case of oligosaccharide X. The down field shift (Jb = 0.075 ppm) of the H-2 signal for Man-4' in comparison to that of GalfPI-2Man~I-6Man/Jl-4GlcNAc/3I -4GlcNAc-ABEE is indicative of disubstitution of this residue at 0-3 and 0-6 by Man-A and Man-B. respectively.2h) And the presence of a fJ-( 1-2)-linked D
galactofuranose residue is indicated by the broad doublet signal at c5 = 5.120 ppm with the coupling constant, J 1.2 = 1.88 Hz. Another unusual signal at b = 5.150 ppm, thus, can be assigned to H-I of Man-A. Combining these results, it can be concluded that the structure of fraction Nf is as shown in Table II.
The oligosaccharide in peak Nc was also resistant to A. saitoi:x-mannosidase I. When Nc was hydrolyzed with mild acid, the ABEE-oligosaccharide showed a peak shift corresponding to the release of one galactose residue to yield an ABEE-oligosaccharide comigrating with authentic Man4 GlcN Ac2-ABEE (Fig. 4). From these results, the structure of Nc was proposed to be as in Table II.
The ABEE-oligosaccharide in peak Nh was converted to an ABEE-oligosaccharide with the same mobility as GalfMan sGlcNAc2-ABEE (oligosaccharide Nf) on digestion with A. sailoi:x-mannosidase I (Fig. 6). That the product was actually GalfMan sGlcNAc 2-ABEE was demonstrated by similar experiments to those for structural analysis of Nf described above. To locate the ~-( 1-2)-linked mannose residue, degalactosylated Nh obtained on mild acid hydrolysis was digested with endo-/J-N-acetylglucosaminidase H. followed by 2D-HPLC analysis. The endo-/J-

Fig. 6. Amide-80 HPLC Analysis of A. sailoi:x-Mannosidase I Digests of the ABEE-oligosaccharides in Peaks Nh and Nj.
The digest of each fraction was subjected to HPLC on a TSKgel Amide-XO column under the conditions given in Fig. 2. When the hatched peak material was subjected to jack bean :x-mannosidase digestion. a peak corresponding to Gal/In -+2Man:xl-+ hMan/fl --.4GkNAcIJI -+4GkNAc-ABEE appeared (sho",o'!1 by a dolted line). Arrows ( i ) indicate the same as in Fig. 2. Open arrows ( U ) indicate the elution positions of untreated ABEE-oligosaccharides.
N-acetylglucosaminidase H digest gave a peak at the same position as authentic Man~I-6(Man~I-3)Man,~1-6-(Man~I-2Man~I-3)Manpl-4G1cNAc-ABEE (Man 6 -
GlcNAc ,-II-ABEE) (data not shown). These results were consistent with the proposed structure shown in Table II.
When the ABEE-oligosaccharide in peak Nj was digested with A. saitoi :x-mannosidase I, 50% of the fraction was converted to GalfMansGlcNAC 2-ABEE with the release of two mannose residues, the other 50% remaining unchanged (Fig. 6). The endo-fJ-N-acetylglucosaminidase H digest of degalactosylated Nj gave two peaks corresponding to Man 7GlcNAc t -I-ABEE and Man 7GlcNAc t -I1I-ABEE in a molar ratio of 2: I. These results suggested that this fraction contained the two isomers shown in Table II and a small amount of uncharacterized oligosaccharides.
Discussion This study established the structures of N-linked 01-
igosaccharides derived from AOD from a fungal strain, ACrel110llilllll sp. HI-25. AOD was found to only have N-linked oligosaccharide chains. Oligosaccharides were liberated from the enzyme by hydrazinolysis and then tagged with ABEE. Among the total ABEE-derivatized oligosaccharides from AOD, approximately 90% were neutral. The neutral oligosaccharides were resolved into twelve subfractions on normal-phase HPLC, the structures of which were identified by FAB-MS, 2D-HPLC analysis, t H-NMR. methylation analysis, mild acid hydrolysis, and/or exoglycosidase digestion. In Table II, the structures are compiled, together with their relative amounts. The results obtained in this study show that AOD from Acremolliul11 sp. HI-25 contains two types of oligosaccharides, a series of highmannose type oligosaccharides, Man4 _ gGlcNAc2, (76.3%), and a series of fJ-galactofuranose-containing high-mannose type oligosaccharides, GalfMan 4 _ 7GlcNAcz (18.6%). Galactofuranose was linked to Man-4' in various highmannosc type oligosaccharides via a /J-( 1-2)-linkage.

The presence of o-galactose of the furanose form is highly unusual. o-Galactose found in mammalian glycoproteins is in the pyranose form and present in complex type oligosaccharides with the sequence of Gal-GlcNAc-Man-. In contrast, o-galactose residues in AOD are of the furanose form and present in high-mannose type oligosaccharides.
The presence of galactofuranose in N-linked oligosaccharides was first reported in protozoa, Crithidiafasciculata and Crithidia harnw.'W,2S) and trypanosomatid flagellates. 3') In these protozoa, o-galactofuranose was found to be linked to the nonreducing ends of high-mannose type oligosaccharides with the composition of Gal,Man 6 GlcNAc2. The galactofuranose was of the /3-anomeric form from its sensitivity to fi-galactofuranosidase from Penicillium charlesii/ S) but the position of its linkage to a mannose residue has not been identified. Moraes et al. 32) subsequently reported that galactofuranose-containing high-mannose type oligosaccharides with compositions of Gal, _ 3Man9GlcNAc2 and Gal,Man 7 .8GlcNAc2 occurred in glycoproteins of the parasitic protozoan Leptomonas samudio In this case, the galactose residue was found to be attached to the C-2 position of a mannose at the nonreducing end. The anomeric configuration has not been identified. Groisman and de Lederkremer33 ) reported that galactofuranose-containing oligosaccharides were also present in the fungus Ascoholus furfuraceus. On methylation analysis and 13C-NMR, it was found that the galactofuranose residues in A. fiu'furaceus were of the /3-anomeric form and linked to position 2 of the mannose residue in the oligosaccharides sensitive to endo-fi-N-acetylglucosaminidase H. Recently, galactofuranose-containing high-mannose type oligosaccharides with similar structures to those of protozoan oligosaccharides were reported in an :x-galactosidase28 ) and an :x-glucosidase29 ) from the fungus Aspergillus niger. In A. niger, the galactofuranose residues were found to be linked to nonreducing mannose (Man-A) of Mans _ 8GlcNAc2 via an :x-( 1-+2)-linkage. Interestingly, the galactofuranose residues in Acremonium sp. AOD oligosaccharides were not linked to external mannose but internal mannose residue (Man-4'), in contrast to all other reported cases. Furthermore, the anomeric configuration of the galactofuranose in Acremonium sp. AOD oligosaccharides differed from that of A. niger enzyme oligosaccharides.
It should be noted that the galactofuranose-containing oligosaccharides from Leptomonas samueli were sensitive to endo-fi-N-acetylglucosaminidase H,32) but those from Acremonium sp. AOD reported in this study were resistant to it. Maley et al. 34) reported that endo-fJ-N-acetylglucosaminidase H required for hydrolysis the minimum structural unit, Man:xI-+3Man:xI-+6Manfil-+4GlcNAcfil-+ 4GlcNAc. In addition, Yamashita 3S) reported that the presence of an :x-( 1-+3)-linked mannose residue (Man-A) to an:x-( 1-+6)-linked mannose residue (Man-4') was essential for a substrate of the enzyme. Interestingly, although the structures of the galactofuranose-containing oligosaccharides from Acremonium AOD met these requirements, they were not hydrolyzed under these conditions (0.1 units of the enzyme, 3TC, 16 h). These results indicated that the attachment of Galfto the internal mannose residue (Man-4') via fi-( 1-+2)-linkage inhibited the action of endo-fJ-N-acetylglucosaminidase H.
The oligosaccharide structures of the fungus, Acremonium
sp., AOD differ markedly from those of plant AOD. 8) The
biosynthesis and biological functions of galactofuranosecontaining high-mannose type oligosaccharides in AcremoIlium sp. remain unknown.
