Proteoglycans in human burn hypertrophic scar from a patient with Ehlers-Danlos syndrome. Proteoglycans (PGs) from human burn hypertrophic scar of a patient with Ehlers-Danlos syndrome were extracted with 4M guanidinium chloride and purified by DEAE-cellulose chromatography. Differential ethanol precipitation of the PG fraction obtained after ion-exchange chromatography yielded two low mol.-wt. PGs, on rich in glucuronic acid (PGGLCA; Mr 66 kDa) and the other rich in iduronic acid (PGIDOA; Mr 48 kDa). In PGGLCA, 84% of the glycosaminoglycan chains are composed of GlcA----GalNAc(SO4) units, whereas in PGIDOA, the chains contain 95% IdoA----GalNAc(SO4) disaccharide units. Upon treatment with testicular hyaluronidase, the PGs gave different-sized oligosaccharides. Chondroitinase ABC digestion of PGGLCA or PGIDOA gave a single protein core (Mr approximately 20 kDa). The presence of glucosamine and sialic acid in PGGLCA and PGIDOA suggests that both contain N-linked oligosaccharides.
