Department of Cell Biology, Mayo Medical School, Rochester, Minnesota 55905 Received August 28, 1984 abstract: Indirect evidence has indicated that the carbohydrate moieties of the glycoprotein hormones are involved in the activation of the receptor-adenylyl cyclase system of reproductive tissues. In the present study, we have isolated the glycopeptides (GP) from human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG), the a-subunit of hCG, fetuin, and bovine 7-globulin (b7G). These along with a number of synthetic oligosaccharides were tested for their ability to inhibit adenylyl cyclase (AC). There was less than 0.001% cross-reactivity of the GP from hCG, hCGa, fetuin, and b7G when tested in a double-antibody hCG radioimmunoassay or rat corpora lutea radioreceptor assay. The GP of fetuin, b7G, and the synthetic oligosaccharides did not inhibit AC activity of 2000# corpora lutea membranes when coincubated with 100 ng of hCG/mL (ED50). However, when the GP of hCG and hCGa were included with intact hCG, there was a dose-related inhibition. Inhibition of cyclase activity was enhanced when the hCG GP were desialylated. This occurred without a change in thelag time of hCG activation which was calculated to be 1-1.5 min. Changing the concentration of ATP and Mg2+ did not affect the inhibitory effects of the hCGa GP on hCG-stimulated AC activity. Inhibition by hCG GP followed uncompetitive kinetics. The inhibition by the GP of hCG seems to be restricted to the LH/hCG-stimulatable AC system because the same dosage of hCG GP which inhibited the rat luteal AC system did nothave any effect on the rat hepatocyte AC system when coincubated with glucagon or on NaF-stimulated activity in luteal membranes. These results suggest that a membrane lectin may be involved in the regulation of luteal cell hCG-stimulated adenylyl cyclase. We further speculate that receptor and lectin cross-linking may be involved in microaggregation, cyclase stimulation, and internalization. e mechanism of action of the glycoprotein hormones, including human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG), 1 has been studied extensively (Moyle, 1980; Ryan, 1982; Bahl & Kalyan, 1983). It is known, for example, that binding of hCG to the LH/hCG receptor and subsequent full activation of the ade-nylyl cyclase (AC) system in vivo and/or in vitro require an intact hormone or one in which only the sialic acid moieties of the carbohydrate chains have been removed. Progressive deglycosylation by enzymatic or chemical means leads to decreased AC activation with a parallel decrease in cellular response but without loss of receptor binding (Chen et al., 1982; Manjunath & Sairam, 1982; Sairam & Manjunath, 1983; Kalyan & Bahl, 1983; Moyle et al., 1975). In addition, the deglycosylated preparations effectively compete with the intact hCGmolecule for receptor sites and inhibit biological activity (Keutmann et al., 1983; Sairam & Manjunath, 1983). We have studied this phenomenon furtherutilizing the glycopeptides (GP) prepared from hCG, the a-subunit of hCG (hCGa), fetuin, and bovine 7-immunoglobulin (b7G). The GP of fetuin and b7G are generally similar in composition to those of hCG, but there are some differences (Kornfeld & Kornfeld, 1976; Baezinger & Fiete, 1979). In addition, we have investigated the ability of a variety of chemically synthesized oligosaccharides (Arnarp & Lonngren, 1981; Arnarp et al., 1982; Lonn & Lonngren, 1983) to inhibit AC activity in luteal tissue and liver preparations. t Supported by funds from the National Institutes of Health (HD9140) and the Mayo Foundation.
