A method based on sequential degradation, p-aminobenzoic ethyl ester (ABEE) closed-ring labeling, and negative ion electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry is presented for the study of linkage and branch determination for N-linked oligosaccharides. Closed-ring labeling provides greater linkage information than the more popular open-ring reductive amination approach. In addition, after high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) separation, closed-ring labeling allows for regeneration of the underivatized oligosaccharide, a requirement for alkaline sequential degradation. The analytical scheme presented here uses HPLC separation of closed-ring labeled oligosaccharides to resolve the mixture into individual forms that undergo subsequent structural analysis by negative ion tandem mass spectrometry. To facilitate complete structural analysis, particularly for larger sugars, the closed-ring labels are removed and the sugars are sequentially degraded by controlled alkaline hydrolysis. It is noteworthy that for sugars containing sialic acid moieties, a protecting group must be used to stabilize sialic acid groups during sequential alkaline degradation. This described approach was applied to two high mannose oligosaccharides M5G2, M6G2 cleaved from the ribonuclease B and a complex oligosaccharide A2 cleaved from transferrin.
