    Abstract:
    Using a high performance liquid chromatography method, degradation products of heparan sulfate (HS) and dermatan sulfate (DS) were investigated after incubation of control and alpha-L-iduronidase-deficient fibroblasts with HS or DS. Characteristic elution profiles of the degradation products were obtained from the respective alpha-L-iduronidase-deficient fibroblasts. Moreover, alpha-L-iduronidase in control fibroblasts was resolved into two distinct components, forms A and B, on DEAE-cellulose column chromatography. Form A alpha-L-iduronidase could degrade HS, but not DS. Conversely, form B alpha-L-iduronidase could not degrade HS, but could degrade DS.
