✦ Synopsis

Chondroitin sulfate C (CSC), isolated from shark vertebral mucoprotein, has a molecular weight of 5.2 x lOe5.5 X lo4 in both NaCl and CaC12 solutions. Optical rotatory dispersion and circular dichroism of CSC reveal a strong, negative, optically active band near 210 mp, arising from the carboxylate and N-acetyl groups. Results of similar studies of glucuronic acid and N-acetyl-D-galactosamine suggest that the N-acetyl group contributes more to the rotations of CSC than does the carboxylate group, but the acidification of the carboxylate groups largely accounts for the change in magnitude and position of the circular dichroic bands of CSC a t low pH.
