Proteoglycans were extracted from the extracellular matrix of cultures of embryonic chick chondrocytes grown at high density and were purified by CsCl density gradient centrifugation. The chemical, physical and hyaluronate binding properties of the proteoglycans were similar to those observed in proteoglycans from other hyaline cartilages. Proteoglycans in the media were also purified and on analysis showed 3 populations of proteoglycans to be present. One population had the physical characteristics of a typical proteoglycan subunit and bound hyaluronate, the other 2 populations were unable to complex with hyaluronate but 1 had the physical characteristics of the proteoglycan subunit and the other was of smaller MW. The small MW appears to be a product of the enzymatic degradation of the larger MW species.
