Abstract Chemically isolated individual preparations of the unaggregated fraction of protein-chondroitinkeratan sulfate (PCKS) from hyaline cartilage and of hyaluronic acid (HUA) from the vitreous body of the eye and umbilical cord were investigated electron-microscopically. PCKS and HUA in films without cytochrome c consisted of granules and differed in their structural organization. In films with cytochrome c, proteoglycans appeared as a network of thin fibrils and they differed more clearly in their macromolecular organization. Complexes formed in mixtures of the two proteoglycans as a result of noncovalent interaction. Uranyl acetate stains proteoglycans well, especially PCKS without cytochrome c.
