## Dinitrophenyl N-acetyl-B-D-glucosaminide (3,4-dnpGlcNAc) was synthesized and proposed as an artificial substrate for N-acetyl-/3-D-glucosaminidase (EC 321.30) and IV -acetyl -@ -D -hexosaminidase (EC 3.2.1.62) (collectively abbreviated as NAGase). 3,4-dnpGlcNAc is water soluble and is fairly st

✦ Synopsis
Endo-N-acetyl-P-D-glucosaminidase H (Endo H) was purified to homogeneity (3000-fold) from a culture filtrate of Streptomyces plicatus. The key step was substrate-affinity chromatography, which afforded a lOOO-fold purification and yielded a protease-and exoglycosidase-free preparation of Endo H. Proteins from the crude sample were applied to the substrate-affinity column, consisting of yeastinvertase glycopeptides bound to Sepharose-immobilized concanavalin A. After washing off the unbound proteins, Endo H was quantitatively eluted by methyl cu-D-mannopyranoside.
Various conditions were tested to achieve an optimal binding of Endo H to this substrate-affinity gel. After substrate-affinity chromatography, Endo H was separated from the coeluted glycopeptide substrate and some protein impurities by gel filtration and hydrophobic chromatography.
