Recombinant Human N-Acetylglucosaminyltransferase2/MGAT2 Protein Enzyme Activity Diagram.

MGAT2 (Catalog # 10711-GT) recognizes an unmodified GlcNAc residue installed by MGAT1 (8334-GT) in the alpha3 arm of the trimannose core of N-glycans and transfers a second GlcNAc residue to the alpha6 arm of the structure to generate product glycan M2. MGAT2 can tolerate core-6 fucose and its Cy5 derivatives.

Recombinant Human N-Acetylglucosaminyltransferase2/MGAT2 Protein SDS-PAGE

1 μg/lane of Recombinant Human MGAT2 His-tag (Catalog # 10711-GT) was resolved with SDS-PAGE under reducing (R) conditions and visualized by silver staining, showing bands at 46-54 kDa.

Fluorescent gel mobility shift caused by rhMGAT2.

Lane 1 contained substrate glycan M1N1f' (GL302). In the presence of rhMGAT2, the glycan was modified and a mobility shift was observed.

Background: N-Acetylglucosaminyltransferase 2/MGAT2

Mannosylglycoprotein N-acetyl-glucosaminyltransferase 2 (MGAT2) is a key enzyme for the synthesis of complex type N-glycan. It specifically recognizes an unmodified GlcNAc residue installed by MGAT1 in the alpha3 arm of the trimannosy core of N-glycans and transfers a second GlcNAc residue to the alpha6 arm of the structure, thereby initiating the conversion of oligomannose type N-glycan to the complex type N-glycan (1-3). MGAT2 is a Golgi resident type II membrane protein with a typical domain structure of glycosyltransferases, containing a short N-terminal cytoplasmic domain, a hydrophobic non-cleavable signal-anchor domain, and a C-terminal catalytic domain (4). MGAT2 Mutations lead to type II carbohydrate-deficient glycoprotein syndrome (5) and abnormal brain development (6). Additionally, MGAT2 maybe involved in glycoantigen presentation and T cell activation (7). The activity of recombinant MGAT2 is demonstrated in an electrophoretic gel mobility shift assay using a fluorophore-labeled core N-glycan as the substrate.
