Chromatographically purified endopolygalacturonase (PG) from Aspergillus niger was deglycosylated with N-glycosidase F (PNGase F) and characterized by means of sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS)-electrophoresis, polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) without denaturing agents, isoelectric focusing (IEF) and lectin affino-blotting. The results show that PG, which is apparently homogeneous in SDS-PAGE but heterogeneous in IEF and PAGE, consists of at least two polypeptide chains with different glycosylation patterns. The component with the higher electrophoretic mobility is deglycosylated with PNGase F and reacts with concanavalin A (Con A) and Galanthus nivalis agglutinin (GNA), indicating a "high mannose" or "hybrid"-type of glycoprotein (GP). The other component may contain O-glycosidically linked mannose, N-acetylglucosamine or glucose.
