Benjamin V. Treadwell,* David P. Mankin, Paul K. Ho, and Henry J. Mankin abstract: A poly (adenylic acid)-enriched RNA fraction isolated from calf articular cartilage was translated in cartilage and wheat germ cell-free systems. The radioactive translation products were assayed for thepresence of two cartilage proteins: proteoglycan core and glycoproteinlink. This was accomplished by utilizing the property both proteins have of binding to hyaluronic acidand forming an aggregate large enough to elute in the void volume of a Sepharose column. When an extract of calfcartilage, containing hyaluronic acid and link, was added to the cell-free mRNA directed products synthesized in a cartilage system and applied to a Sepharose 6B column, 5-10% of the radioactivematerial was recovered-/Articular cartilage consists of chondrocytes dispersed in a hyaline matrix formed by type II collagen and at least two glycosylated proteins noncovalently bound to hyaluronic acid (Rosenberg, 1978; Mankin, 1970; Hascall, 1977). One of the glycoproteins (proteoglycan link) of molecular weight 45 000-50 000 is believed to stabilize the interaction between hyaluronic acidand the second glycoprotein, referred to here as proteoglycan subunit [Mr (0.5-4.0) X 106](Bonnet et al., 1978; Baker & Caterson, 1978, 1977; Keiser, 1975; Oegema et al., 1977; Caterson & Baker, 1977; Swann et a}., 1976). The protein part of the subunit, known as core [Mr (1.8-2.0) X 105], constitutes only 10% of the proteoglycan with the bulk of the molecule consisting of the sulfated glycosaminoglycans
