The unglycosylated form of fibronectin is more susceptible to proteolytic degradation than the glycosylated form [ 41 ] . It will be interesting to determine why two forms of myocilin are secreted in humans and what functionality, if any, N-linked glycosylation imparts on human vs. rabbit myocilin.
We show that, in Xenopus oocytes, VR1 is expressed in both glycosylated and unglycosylated forms, with ~4 kDa difference in their apparent molecular weights.
Through site-directed mutagenesis, we determined that the doublet represented unglycosylated and glycosylated forms of the VR1 subunit monomer and identified the glycosylation site as N604.
These authors claim that the lower band of the unglycosylated 55/57-kDa doublet is due to cleavage of the N-terminal 32 amino acid signal peptide.
Several groups have shown that myocilin is glycosylated [ 10 16 17 18 19 20 21 ] whereas one group suggests that myocilin is not glycosylated [ 22 ] . In our hands, both an N-linked glycosylated (≈57-kDa) and unglycosylated (≈55-kDa) form of myocilin is detected in TM cell culture media [ 17 ] and aqueous humor [ 12 ] . The basis for both secretion and N-linked glycosylation of myocilin is part of the focus of this paper.
