Summary Introduction
To analyze:
Thefeatures that impart gel character to proteoglycans and GAGs.
Introduction:
The connective tissues connect various muscles and bones. The tendons connect muscle to bone and ligaments connect bone to bone.Connective tissues are one of the most abundant tissues in the body. They provide elasticity, flexibility, and shape to the body.

Acid hydrolysis gives Ala2, Arg, Lys2, Met, Phe, Ser22. Carboxypeptidase gives Ala3. Trypsin digestion gives 4 peptides a) Ala, Arg b) Lys, Phe, Ser c) Lys d) Ala, Met, Ser4. CNBr treatment gives a) Ala, Arg, Lys2, homoserine, Phe, Ser b) Ala, Ser5. Thermolysin is a protease that cuts on the N-terminal side of hydrophobic amino acids (substrate preference is Leu, Ile, Phe, Trp, Tyr, Val).
