Abstract

A glycan chain analysis of the total oligosaccharide pool derived from rat liver arylsulfatase B was carried out by. P4 Gel Permeation Chromatography and sequential exoglycosidase digestion. It was found that 71% of rat liver arylsulfatase B oligosaccharides were sialylated. The relative contribution of particular structures in the total glycan pool was as follows: sialylated biantennary complex type glycans with terminal galactose--65%, high-mannose type glycans--15%, biantennary complex type glycans with core fucose and terminal N-acetylglucosamine--5%, O-linked oligosaccharides--3.5%.
