To circumvent this embryonic lethality and to uncover tissue-specific functions for complex N-glycans, WW6 embryonic stem cells with inactivated Mgat1 alleles were tracked in chimeric embryos. The Mgat1 gene encodes N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase I (Glc-NAc-TI; EC 2.4.1.101), the transferase that initiates the synthesis of complex N-glycans. WW6 cells carry an inert beta-globin transgene that allows their identification in chimeras by DNA-DNA in situ hybridization. Independent Mgat1-/- and Mgat1+/- mutant WW6 isolates contributed like parent WW6 cells to the tissues of embryonic day (E) 10.5 to E16.5 chimeras. However, a cell type-specific difference was observed in lung. Homozygous null Mgat1-/- WW6 cells did not contribute to the epithelial layer in more than 99% bronchi. This deficiency was corrected by transfection of a Mgat1 transgene. Interestingly, heterozygous Mgat1+/- WW6 cells were also deficient in populating the layer of bronchial epithelium. Furthermore, examination of lung bud in E9.5 Mgat1-/- mutant embryos showed complete absence of an organized epithelial cell layer in the bronchus. Thus, complex N-glycans are required to form a morphologically recognizable bronchial epithelium, revealing an in vivo, cell type-specific function for this class of N-glycans.</jats:p> Essential role for complex N-glycans in forming an organized layer of bronchial epithelium.
