| Abstract | The present paper describes the structures of the N-linked oligosaccharides of the human-immunodeficiency-virus (HIV) envelope glycoprotein gp120 (cloned from the HTLV-III B isolate and expressed as a secreted fusion protein after transfection of Chinese-hamster ovary cells), which is known to bind with high affinity to human T4-lymphocytes. Oligosaccharides were released from peptide by hydrazinolysis, fractionated by paper electrophoresis, high-performance lectin-affinity chromatography and Bio-Gel P-4 column chromatography, and their structures determined by sequential exoglycosidase digestions in conjunction with methylation analysis. The glycoprotein was found to be unique in its diversity of oligosaccharide structures. These include high-mannose type and hybrid type, as well as four categories of complex-type chains: mono-, bi-, tri- and tetra-antennary, with or without N-acetyl-lactosamine repeats, and with or without a core-region fucose residue. Among the sialidase-treated oligosaccharides, no less than 29 structures were identified as follows: (formula; see text) where G is galactose, GN is N-acetylglucosamine, M is mannose, F is fucose, and '+/- ' means that residues are present in a proportion of chains. The actual number of oligosaccharide structures is much greater, since before desialylation there was evidence that, among the hybrid and complex-type chains, all but 6% contained sialic acid at the C-3 position of terminal galactose residues, and partially sialylated forms of the bi- and multi-antennary chains were present. Detailed evidence for the proposed oligosaccharide sequences will be published as a supplementary paper [T. Mizuochi, M. W. Spellman, M. Larkin, J. Solomon, L. J. Basa & T. Feizi (1988) Biomed. Chromatogr., in the press]. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
