Involvement of Lipid-linked Oligosaccharides in Synthesis of Storage Glycoproteins in Soybean Seeds 1

RESUMO
Membrane preparations from developing soybean (var. Prize) cotyledon tissue, at the time of synthesis of storage glycoproteins, catalyze the sequential assembly of lipid-linked oligosaccharides from uridine-5′-diphospho-N-acetyl-d-[6-3H] glucosamine and guanosine-5′diphospho-d-[U-14C]mannose. The maximum size of lipid-linked oligosaccharide that accumulates contains the equivalent of 10 saccharide units on the basis of Bio-Gel P-2 gel filtration studies. These lipid-linked oligosaccharides show similar characteristics to polyisoprenyl diphosphate derivatives on diethylaminoethyl-cellulose chromatography and are potential intermediates in glycoprotein biosynthesis in this tissue. These glycolipids do not appear to turn over in pulse-chase experiments and no completed storage glycoproteins were detected among the products of these incubations.
