Epithelial basement membrane of bovine renal tubuli. Isolation and analysis of the carbohydrate chains
Abstract
The carbohydrate chains present in the tubular basement membrane of bovine kidney were studied. Digestion with collagenase followed with pronase resulted in a complete solubilization of the basement membrane. The different glycopeptides were purified by gel filtration and ion-exchange chromatography. Two kinds of carbohydrate chains could be characterized: oligosaccharides composed of glucosamine, mannose, galactose, fucose and sialic acid, and glucosylgalactose disaccharides. A very small portion of the oligosaccharide chains (ca. 4%) appeared to be free of sialic acid. The bulk of these chains contained sialic acid and fucose, although in small amounts. Only traces of galactosamine were found.
