The oligosaccharide substrates ranged in size from tetra- through dodecasaccharides and each contained N-acetylgalactosamine at their reducing terminus. The oligosaccharides which contained an even number of monosaccharide residues contained D-glucuronic acid at their nonreducing terminus and those that contained an odd number of monosaccharide residues contained N-acetylgalactosamine at their nonreducing terminus.

The sulfated oligosaccharide products were digested wih chondroitinase and the digestion products were analyzed to determine the individual rates of 4- and 6-sulfation. Both sulfotransferases were stimulated by MnCl(,2) and detergents. Dithiothreitol stimulated the rate of 4-sulfation 2-fold at pH 6.0 but had little effect on the rate of 6-sulfation at either pH 8.0 or pH 6.0. Under optimized assay conditions, the rate of 4-sulfation was reduced by as much as 5-fold when the pH was shifted from 6.0 to 8.0, while the rate of 6-sulfation was relatively unchanged. An analysis of the chondroitinase ABC and/or the chondroitinase AC digestion products from the sulfated chondroitin oligosaccharides was used to determine the rates of 4- and 6-sulfation at the nonreducing terminal, internal, and reducing terminal regions of the oligosaccharides. It was found that both acceptor structure and pH affect the distributions and positions of SO(,4) esters on the oligosaccharide products.","Made available in DSpace on 2014-12-15T23:43:47Z (GMT).
