A differentiated population of cells with metachromatically staining granules and surface IgE receptors was obtained from mouse bone marrow cultured for 2 weeks in the presence of conditioned medium derived from concanavalin A-stimulated splenocytes. The cells were found to incorporate large amounts of [35S]sulfate into an intracellular 35S-labeled proteoglycan of Mr approximately 200,000 containing a maximum of seven glycosaminoglycan side chains (Mr = 25,000). After chondroitinase ABC treatment of density gradient-purified [3H] serine-labeled proteoglycan, the resulting core was Mr approximately 26,000 as assessed by gel filtration. Two-dimensional cellulose acetate electrophoresis of beta-eliminated 35S-labeled glycosaminoglycan revealed a single type of glycosaminoglycan that migrated at the position of oversulfated chondroitin sulfate E from squid cartilage. Chondroitinase ABC degradation of the 35S-labeled glycosaminoglycan yielded two cleavage products in approximately equal molar amounts which co-migrated in both descending paper chromatography and high voltage paper electrophoresis with a monosulfated disaccharide, 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-3-O-(beta-D-gluco-4-enepyranosyluronic acid)-4-O-sulfo-D-galactose, and a disulfated disaccharide, 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-3-O-(beta-D-gluco-4-enepyranosyluronic acid)-4-6-di-O-sulfo-D-galactose. The release of some free [35S]sulfate from the oversulfated disaccharide with either chondro-4-sulfatase or chondro-6-sulfatase and the complete d...
