Comparative studies on human and bovine nasal cartilage proteoglycan complex components

Abstract
Human and bovine nasal proteoglycan complex components were prepared in parallel. Some molecular properties of human and bovine proteoglycan subunits (PGS) were compared. Two major human “link-like proteins” have been characterized and purified; their compositions and molecular weights were very similar to those observed for the previously described bovine “link proteins”.
