Endo-beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase from Arthrobacter protophormiae was tested for its capacity to release N-linked sugar chains from native yeast invertase. The enzyme liberated about 80% of the sugar chains from the native invertase. Deglycosylated invertase was digested by chymotrypsin or pepsin, and twelve N-acetylglucosamine-containing glycopeptides were isolated. The amino acid sequences of these glycopeptides were analyzed by a protein sequencer, and the elution position of 4-L-aspartylglycosylamine was directly identified by conventional sequencing. The endo-beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase was found to remove mainly nine sugar chains from native invertase.

The complete amino acid sequence of endo-beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase from Flavobacterium sp. has been determined by analysis of peptides after cleavage with lysyl endopeptidase, pepsin and chymotrypsin. The protein consists of a single polypeptide chain consisting of 267 amino acid residues and a molecular mass of 27972 Da. The sequence of Flavobacterium endo-beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase is very close to that of the Streptomyces enzyme (endo-H), having 60% similarity and very similar hydropathy profiles. Similarities were also found between Flavobacterium endo-beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase and chitinases from Bacillus circulans, Serratia marcescens and Phaseolus vulgaris.
