Abstract
Human liver alpha-L-fucosidase was purified to apparent homogeneity and analyzed for carbohydrate content primarily by gas-liquid chromatography (glc). The enzyme is about 7% carbohydrate by weight and contains the following sugars (residues per 50, 000 molecular weight subunit): mannose (8.3), glucosamine (4.3) (presumably N-acetylated), sialic acid (1.6) and glucose (1.6). Galactose (0.8) and L-fucose (1.8) were also found but their presence may be due to artifacts of the purification procedure.Entities:
