Abstract: | β-N-Acetylhexosaminidase A and B were partially purified from normal human liver using DEAE-cellulose column chromatography. Hexosaminidase B was also purified from the livers of patients who had died of Tay-Sachs disease. The hexosaminidase fractions were tested for their ability to hydrolyze the amino sugar moiety of synthetic substrates and of three amino sugar-containing glycolipids, GA2, globoside, and GM2. |
