The radioactive products derived from transfer of annose residues from GDP-annose to endogenous acceptors of a Hansenula holstii particulate enzyme preparation have been solubilized by Pronase digestion. From this soluble mixture, glycopeptides containing annose have been purified and have been shown by β-elimination-reduction experiments to contain radioactive mannose and oligosaccharides of mannose linked to serine and threonine residues.
