Flavobacterium heparinum is a soil bacterium that produces several mucopolysaccharidases such as heparinase, heparitinases I and II, and chondroitinases AC, B, C and ABC. The purpose of the present study was to optimize the preparation of F.

Modular automated solid phase synthesis of dermatan sulfate oligosaccharides [PDF]
Dermatan sulfates are glycosaminoglycan polysaccharides that serve a multitude of biological roles as part of the extracellular matrix. Orthogonally protected D-galactosamine and L-iduronic acid building blocks and a photo- cleavable linker are ...

Production and characterization of monoclonal antibody to dermatan sulfate proteoglycan.
We purified dermatan sulfate proteoglycan (PG) from the capsule of human ovarian fibroma for use as an immunogen. A monoclonal antibody, designated 6B6, was produced which reacts to the intact molecule of dermatan sulfate PG and the chondroitinase AC ...

The Dermatan Sulfate-Protein Linkage Region
A study was made to identify the components of the region of linkage between polysaccharide and protein of dermatan sulfate from umbilical cord. The sulfated mucopolysaccharides were obtained after digestion of the tissue with pepsin and trypsin, and a dermatan sulfate-polypeptide preparation was isolated and purified.

Sulfated glycosaminoglycans in human vocal fold lamina propria
Introduction: The distribution, concentration and function of glycosaminoglycans in the various vocal fold tissues are still unclear. Objective: To evaluate the distribution and concentration of sulfated glycosaminoglycans in different layers of the ...

As C-Xyloside has been suggested to be an initiator of glycosaminoglycan (GAG) synthesis, and GAGs such as Dermatan sulfate (DS) are potent enhancers of fibroblast growth factor (FGF)--10 action, we investigated if a C-Xylopyranoside derivative, (C-β-D ...

Abstract Aims Enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) for mucopolysaccharidosis II (MPS II) requires long‐term, weekly intravenous infusions often lasting over 3 h each time, which can burden paediatric patients and caregivers and negatively affect their quality of life and treatment compliance.

Electron detachment dissociation of dermatan sulfate oligosaccharides [PDF]
The structural characterization of glycosaminoglycans (GAG) oligosaccharides has been a long-standing challenge in the field of mass spectrometry. In this work, we present the application of electron detachment dissociation (EDD) Fourier transform mass spectrometry to the analysis of dermatan sulfate (DS) oligosaccharides up to 10 residues long.

Distribution of Chondroitin Sulfate and Dermatan Sulfate in Normal and Inflamed Human Gingivae
The effect of inflammation on the distribution of chondroitin sulfate and dermatan sulfate proteoglycans was assessed after normal and inflamed human gingivae were stained with monoclonal antibodies against these extracellular matrix macromolecules. The
