Scientific Data
Stepwise Enzymatic synthesis of sialyl Lewis X (sLeX) epitope. Slex is highlighted in the scheme and was synthesized from N2 using increasing amounts of Recombinant Human B4GalT1 Protein (3609-GT), Recombinant Human ST3GAL4 His-tag Protein (10496-GT), and Recombinant Human Fucosyltransferase 7/FUT7 Protein (6409-GT). For details, please refer to Wu, ZL. et al. (2020) Glycobiology, 30:970. https://doi.org/10.1093/glycob/cwaa030. The glycan short names are based on non-reducing end nomenclature (doi: https://doi.org/10.1101/2021.01.16.426965).
Background: Glycan N2f
Assay Procedure
Sample Assay Protocol
One-pot Synthesis of Sialyl-Lewis X N-glycan using Cy5-Fuc Labeled N2f/Cy5-N2f as a scaffold
Suggested input of a Cy5-N2f in an assay separated on SDS-PAGE is from 0.01-1 pmol. To monitor the glycan intermediates, it is suggested that the enzymes are added stepwise.
Protocols are guidelines. Parameters need to be optimized by end users.

Assay
- Dilute rhB4GalT1, rhST3GAL4, and rhFUT7 to 50 ng/μL in the Assay Buffer to create an enzyme mix.
- Create a reaction mix by combining 0.02 µM Cy5-N2f and 1 mM UDP-Gal, 1 mM CMP-NANA, and 1 mM GDP-Fucose in Assay Buffer.
- Mix 10 μL of the enzyme mix and 10 μL of the reaction mix in a centrifuge tube.
- Prepare a negative control by mixing 10 μL of reaction mix with 10 μL of Assay Buffer.
- Incubate the reaction and control at 37 °C for 4 hours.
- Stop the reactions and controls by adding 4 μL of 6X Gel Loading Dye to each tube.
- Load 12 μL each of the above reactions and controls per well on a 15% SDS-PAGE and run down 80% length of the gel.
