Enzymatic identification of soluble GAG

Treatment GAG Fraction remaining
Kidney Liver Brain
−/− −/− −/− +/−
Mock-treated 1.0 1.0 1.0 1.0
Heparan sulfate lyase I 0.2 0.4–0.7 — —
Heparan sulfate lyase II 0.1 0.2 0.9–1.0 0.9–1.0
Chondroitin ABC lyase 1.0 1.0 0.2 0.2
Chondroitin AC lyase — — 0.1–0.2 0.1

The numbers represent the fraction of GAG remaining in each extract after digestion with lyase, relative to the amount remaining in the mock-treated extract.
