Assay Procedure
  • Assay Buffer: 25 mM MES, pH 7.0
  • Recombinant Mouse ST3GAL5/GM3 Synthase (rmST3GAL5) (Catalog # 8454-GT)
  • Donor Substrate: CMP-Sialic Acid (CMP-Neu5Ac) (Sigma, Catalog # C8271), 10 mM stock in deionized water
  • Acceptor Substrate: alpha -Lactose (Sigma, Catalog # L2643), 300 mM stock in deionized water
  • Sialyltransferase Activity Kit (Catalog # EA002)
  • 96-well Clear Plate (Catalog # DY990)
  • Plate Reader (Model: SpectraMax Plus by Molecular Devices) or equivalent
  1. Dilute 1 mM Phosphate Standard provided by the Sialyltransferase Activity Kit by adding 40 µL of the 1 mM Phosphate Standard to 360 µL of Assay Buffer for a 100 µM stock.
  2. Prepare standard curve by performing six one-half serial dilutions of the 100 µM Phosphate stock in Assay Buffer. The standard curve has a range of 0.078 to 5 nmol per well.
  3. Prepare reaction mixture containing 0.4 mM CMP-Sialic Acid, 80 mM alpha -lactose, and 2 µg/mL Coupling Phosphatase 2.
  4. Dilute rmST3GAL5 to 40 µg/mL in Assay Buffer.
  5. Load 50 µL of each dilution of the standard curve into a plate. Include a curve blank containing 50 μL of Assay Buffer.
  6. Load 25 µL of the 40 µg/mL rhST6GAL1 into the plate. Include a Control containing 25 µL of Assay Buffer.
  7. Add 25 µL of reaction mixture to the wells, excluding the standard curve.
  8. Cover the plate with parafilm or a plate sealer and incubate at room temperature for 3 hours.
  9. Add 30 µL of the Malachite Green Reagent A to all wells. Mix briefly.
  10. Add 100 µL of deionized water to all wells.
  11. Add 30 µL of the Malachite Green Reagent B to all wells. Mix and incubate for 20 minutes at room at room temperature.
  12. Read plate at 620 nm (absorbance) in endpoint mode.
  13. Calculate specific activity:

         Specific Activity (pmol/min/µg) =

    Phosphate released* (nmol) x (1000 pmol/nmol)
    Incubation time (min) x amount of enzyme (µg)

         *Derived from the phosphate standard curve using linear or 4-parameter fitting and adjusted for Control.

Per Reaction:
  • rmST3GAL5: 1.0 µg
  • Coupling Phosphatase 2: 0.05 µg
  • CMP-Sialic Acid: 0.2 mM
  • alpha -Lactose: 40 mM

Background

Sialyltransferases add sialic acid to glycoproteins or glycosphingolipids and play important roles in many biological processes including immune recognition, pathogen infection, and cell adhesion (1). ST3GAL5 is a type II membrane protein localized in the trans-Golgi network that can transfer sialic acid to lactosylceramide (LacCer) to form GM3 (NeuAc alpha 2-3Gal beta 1-Glc beta 1-Ceramide), the main ganglioside in human plasma (2). GM3 is known to participate in differentiation, proliferation and maintenance of fibroblast morphology (3). It also plays role in signal transduction, and integrin-mediated cell adhesion. Mutation of ST3GAL5 has been associated with Amish infantile epilepsy syndrome (4) and type 2 diabetes (5). Despite the ubiquitous distribution of ganglioside GM3 in human tissues, the expression of ST3GAL5 is found in a tissue-specific manner, with predominant expression in brain, skeletal muscle, and testis, and very low expression in liver (2). The enzymatic activity of recombinant mouse ST3GAL5 was determined using a phosphatase-coupled glycosyltransferase assay (6).
