Abstract
Nonsulfated, monosulfated, and disulfated glycopeptides containing the entire carbohydrate sequence of the glycosaminoglycan-specific linkage region were isolated after exhaustive enzymatic digestions of Swarm rat chondrosarcoma proteoglycans with chondroitinase ABC, papain, and Pronase. Their structures were examined by 500 MHz 1H NMR spectroscopy. The nonsulfated compound has the following structure with
