Abstract

[³⁵SO₄] Dermatan sulfate, isolated from normal Hurler and Hunter fibroblasts was degraded by chondroitinase A, B, C to yield mono-and disaccharides. The products were separated by ion exchange chromatography and those arising from the non-reducing terminus were characterized by paper electrophoresis. The position of sulfate substituents was established by periodate oxidation and partial acid hydrolysis. Normal dermatan sulfate terminates with GalN-SO₄ whereas IdUA-SO₄ was a prominent terminus in Hunter dermatan sulfate but not in Hurler dermatan sulfate. It is concluded that Hunter's syndrome is due to a deficiency of L-idurono-sulfate sulfatase.
