    Kinetics of cleavage of glycosylated and nonglycosylated proBDNF by furin. Mass difference between glycosylated and nonglycosylated proBDNF enabled densitometric quantification of each proBDNF form: A, representative blot of the cleavage kinetic at the indicated time intervals; B, densitometric analysis of proBDNF intensities at the indicated time intervals. Results are expressed as percent of the proBDNF concentration (mean ± S.D., n = 3) at the beginning of the reaction. Note that proBDNF without C-terminal Myc-FLAG tag was used in the reaction as described under “Experimental procedures.”

Results are expressed as percent of the proBDNF concentration (mean ± S.D., n = 3) at the beginning of the reaction. Note that proBDNF without C-terminal Myc-FLAG tag was used in the reaction as described under “Experimental procedures.”

    Impact of modulators of glycosylation on the BDNF/proBDNF ratio in HEK293F cells. Western blotting using antibodies to prodomain and mature BDNF regions was analyzed by densitometry for the following: A, intracellular BDNF to proBDNF ratio; B, secreted BDNF to proBDNF ratio; C, intracellular prodomain to proBDNF ratio; and D, secreted prodomain to proBDNF ratio. The representative Western blotting is labeled as the graphs: CTRL, control; CHLOR, 50 mm sodium chlorate; KIF, 1 μg/ml kifunensine; TNMC, 5 μg/ml of tunicamycin. Results are expressed as scatter plot (mean ± S.D., n = 3). *, p < 0.05; **, p < 0.01; ***, p < 0.001 compared with CTRL, one-way analysis of variance with Bonferroni adjustment.
