Abstract

Cellular glycosylation is characterized by chemical complexity and heterogeneity, which is challenging to reproduce synthetically. Here we show chemoenzymatic synthesis on phage to produce a genetically-encoded liquid glycan array (LiGA) of complex type N-glycans. Implementing the approach involved by ligating an azide-containing sialylglycosyl-asparagine to phage functionalized with 50–1000 copies of dibenzocyclooctyne. The resulting intermediate can be trimmed by glycosidases and extended by glycosyltransferases yielding a phage library with different N-glycans. Post-reaction analysis by MALDI-TOF MS allows rigorous characterization of N-glycan structure and mean density, which are both encoded in the phage DNA. Use of this LiGA with fifteen glycan-binding proteins, including CD22 or DC-SIGN on cells, reveals optimal structure/density combinations for recognition. Injection of the LiGA into mice identifies glycoconjugates with structures and avidity necessary for enrichment in specific organs. This work provides a quantitative evaluation of the interaction of complex N-glycans with GBPs in vitro and in vivo.
