Stable isotope labeling is an effective method for introducing a “marker” into a molecule of interest. Glycans labeled with stable isotopes are useful in many scientific fields such as detection of diagnostic markers, analyses of metabolic fluxes and even structural analyses of glycans or glycoproteins by mass spectrometry or NMR. Labeling methods are generally classified into two categories, namely, in vitro labeling and metabolic labeling. In vitro labeling introduces labeled sugars, typically enzymatically, into purified glycans or glycoproteins, For example, galactosyltransferase or sialyltransferase transfers labeled sugar nucleotides, such as UDP-[13C]Gal or CMP-[13C]Sia, onto the non-reducing glycan termini 1) 2). Metabolic labeling is typically performed by cultivating cells in a medium which includes the labeled metabolic precursor. Glucose is generally used for labeling sugar residues (GlcNAc, Man, Fuc, Gal, Sia, etc) while glucosamine is rather specifically incorporated into GlcNAc, GalNAc and Sia residues (Fig. 1). Here we introduce a method for metabolic labeling of amino sugar residues (GlcNAc) on IgG-Fc glycans using labeled glucosamine 2) 3) 4). |

Preparation of medium for cell culture:
|
1) |
Prepare a modified Nissui NYSF 404 (SFM-101) serum-free medium:
Replace dihydroxylethylglycine with 15 mM HEPES
Add 0.2 g/L of D-[1-13C]GlcN·HCl or D-[15N]GlcN·HCl
Add 200 mg/L of L-Ala
Reduce D-glucose content by half (1 g/L)
Double the amount of sodium succinate, succinic acid and sodium pyruvate (97 mg/L, 72.8 mg/L and 220 mg/L, respectively). |

2) |
Adapt the hybridoma cells to the serum-free medium, and cultivate in 1–4 L of the medium for 2 weeks. |

2. |
|
1) |
Concentrate the culture supernatant by ultrafiltration (e.g. Millipore Pellicon ultrafiltration system or GE QuixStand benchtop system) |

2) |
Apply the concentrated supernatant to an Affi-Gel protein A column (Bio-Rad Laboratories, Hercules, CA) |

Notes | The medium can be supplemented with 2% (v/v) dialyzed fetal bovine serum.
15N-labeling of amino sugars can also be attained using a culture medium with 15N-labeled glutamine 5). |
