    Abstract:
    A rapid quantitative analysis of the sialylated N-linked oligosaccharides of recombinant erythropoietin (EPO) expressed in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells has been developed. The procedure utilizes a glycoamidase (glycopeptidase F) to release all of the N-linked oligosaccharides from the native glycoprotein, followed by direct chromatographic analysis using high-performance anion-exchange chromatography (HPAEC) with pulsed amperometric detection. The eight sialyloligosaccharides isolated from HPAEC were characterized by derivatizing with 2-aminopyridine followed by two-dimensional HPLC mapping of the pyridylaminated asialooligosaccharides (Tomiya et al., 1988, Anal. Biochem. 171, 73-90). Seven kinds of complex-type asialooligosaccharides were identified ranging from a biantennary structure to N-acetyllactosamine-extended tetraantennary structure. Approximately 3% of the terminal galactose residues of the oligosaccharides released from EPO were not sialylated whereas 97% contained an alpha(2-->3)-linked sialic acid. Quantitative oligosaccharide mapping of four different lots of EPO from CHO cells was performed to quantify the molar balance and distribution of the N-linked oligosaccharides. The sialyloligosaccharides were distributed with approximately 5% disialylated (single type), 20% trisialylated (six types), and 75% tetrasialylated (four types) oligosaccharides with an average molar recovery of 85% starting from 750 pmol of EPO.
