A large family of uridine 5'-diphosphate (UDP)-(alpha-N-acetylgalactosamine (GalNAc): polypeptide N-acetylgalactosaminyl transferases (ppGalNAc Ts) initiates mucin-type O-glycan biosynthesis at serine and threonine. The peptide substrate specificities of individual family members are not well characterized or understood, leaving an inability to rationally predict or comprehend sites of O-glycosylation. Recently, a kinetic modeling approach demonstrated neighboring residue glycosylation as a major factor modulating the O-glycosylation of the porcine submaxillary gland mucin 81 residue tandem repeat by ppGalNAc T1 and T2 [Gerken et al. (2002) J. Biol. Chem. 277, 49850-49862]. To confirm the general applicability of this model and its parameters, the ppGalNAc T1 and T2 glycosylation kinetics of the 80+ residue tandem repeat from the canine submaxillary gland mucin was obtained and characterized. To reproduce the glycosylation patterns of both mucins (comprising 50+ serine/threonine residues), specific effects of neighboring peptide sequence, in addition to the previously described effects of neighboring residue glycosylation, were required of the model. Differences in specificity of the two transferases were defined by their sensitivities to neighboring proline and nonglycosylated hydroxyamino acid residues, from which a ppGalNAc T2 motif was identified. Importantly, the model can approximate the previously reported ppGalNAc T2 glycosylation kinetics of the IgAl hinge domain peptide [Iwasaki, et al. (2003) J. Biol. Chem. 278, 5613-5621], further validating both the approach and the ppGalNAc T2 positional weighting parameters. The characterization of ppGalNAc transferase specificity by this approach may prove useful for the search for isoform-specific substrates, the creation of isoform-specific inhibitors, and the prediction of mucin-type O-glycosylation sites.
