Comprehensive N-glycosylation profiling of recombinant spike S1 protein from the wild-type SARS-CoV-2 and its variants by Yao Peng, Yao Peng, Yao Peng, Tian-Tian Tong, Qiu-Yu Deng, Lee-Fong Yau, Jia-Qi Qiu, Qing Zhao, Jia-Qi Wu, Zhi-Qiang Xin, Man-Ci Guan, Yue Li, Zhi-Hong Jiang, Hu-Dan Pan, Hu-Dan Pan, Liang Liu, Liang Liu, Liang Liu, Jing-Rong Wang, Jing-Rong Wang

“…The Spike protein forms trimers that bind to the ACE2 receptor on host cells, with the S1 subunit being a primary target for vaccines and antiviral treatments.MethodsHerein, we performed an in-depth analysis of the N-glycosylation of the recombinant Spike S1 protein (S1 protein) across the wild-type (WT) virus and its 5 variants, including Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Delta, and Lambda, by integrating ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography coupled with quadrupole-time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UHPLC-Q-TOF MS) and unique TiO₂-PGC chip-based LC/MS techniques.ResultsA total of 332 glycan structures arising from 180 compositions on the S1 and RBD regions were identified, revealing remarkable glycosylation diversity of the S1 protein. …”
