| Abstract | Glycosylation was previously considered to be restricted to eukaryotes; however, through advances in analytical methods, there have been increasing reports of both O-linked and N-linked protein glycosylation pathways in bacteria, particularly amongst mucosal-associated pathogens. The purpose of this study was to detect the glycosylated proteins of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) separated by Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate Polyacrylamide Gel eEectrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) and Two Dimensional Gel Electrophoresis (2-DE). Protein analysis of the H. pylori strains was performed using denaturing 8% SDSPAGE. H. pylori 26695 cell proteins were also separated by 2-DE into hundreds of spots. Separated proteins of H. pylori strains by SDSPAGE and 2-DE were transferred onto the Polyvinylidene Fluoride (PVDF) membrane by semi-dry blotting. Detection of glycosylated proteins of the protein bands or spots on blotted membranes were determined by overlay reactions with Digoxigenin (DIG)-Glycan Detection and Differentation kits (Roche Diagnostics, Germany). DIG-Glycan Differentiation Kit including peanut agglutinin (PNA) lectin was utilized to further characterize the glycosidic modifications. Analysis of protein bands on a blotted membrane with DIG Glycan Detection kit after SDS-PAGE analysis gave the general pattern of glycosylated proteins of H. pylori; interestingly PA4, PR20 and P12 strains of H. pylori gave the different patterns of protein glycosylation on 8% polyacrilamide gels. Moreover, a glycosylated protein band (~54 kDa) was also detected dominantly on the outer membrane part of H. pylori. 2-DE analysis of H. pylori proteins showed about twelve clear spots indicating the O-glycosidically linked carbohydrate chains (galactose–β(1-3)-Nacetylgalactosamine) determined by PNA lectin staining of the blotted membrane. Obtained results of this study and current studies on the protein glycosylation in the gastric pathogen H. Pylori will be discussed.
