Developing ligands capable of carbohydrate recognition has become increasingly important as the essential roles of glycoproteins and glycolipids in a diverse array of cellular signaling, pathophysiology, and immune response mechanisms are elucidated. Effective ligands for the glycan portion of glycoproteins and glycolipids are needed for pre-enrichment proteomics strategies, as well as for the purification of individual glycoproteins from complex biological milieu encountered both in biochemistry research and bio-pharmaceutical development. In this work, we developed a carbohydrate specific affinity ligand for glycoprotein purification using a one-pot, multi-component synthesis reaction (Ugi synthesis) and an amine-functionalized benzoboroxole moiety immobilized on agarose beads. Benzoboroxoles are unique boronic acid derivatives that have recently been found to bind specifically to the cis-diol groups of carbohydrates at physiological pH, with superior affinity to any other Wulff-type boronic acid. The solid-phase affinity ligand developed herein specifically binds the carbohydrate moiety of the glycoprotein glucose oxidase, as well as a fluorescein isothiocyanate-dextran, as shown through deglycosylation binding studies. Additionally, the ligand is able to purify glucose oxidase from crude Escherichia coli lysate, at physiological pH, equitably to commercially available boronic acid-functionalized agarose beads that required alkaline pH conditions. Thus, this affinity ligand is a marked improvement on current, commercially available boronic acid-based glycoprotein enrichment matrices and has the potential to exhibit high individual glycoprotein specificity because of the additional functional groups available for variation on the Ugi scaffold.
