Alcohol substrate binding to the copper-containing enzyme galactose oxidase (GOase) has been studied by kinetic competition against cyanide and fluoride, 13C nmr relaxation, and esr competition experiments. The 13C nmr spectra of the substrate beta-O-methyl-D-galactopyranoside (beta-O-me-gal) show no apparent paramagnetic

Hemocyanin from the freshwater snail Lymnaea stagnalis is a high-molecular-mass copper-containing glyco-protein which functions as oxygen carrier in the hemolymph. To release the carbohydrate chains, the protein was digested by pronase followed by hydrazinolysis and reduction. The oligosaccharide-alditols were purified
