Abstract: Glycoprtein from Chinese yam purified by DEAE-cellulose 52. It was successful to obtain one fraction GLP by the step gradient elution. GLP was further purified by Sephadex G-75. TLC was applied to identify the purity of the GLP. The molecular weight of GLP measured by Sephadex G-75 is 89381 D. The experimental result of TLC revealed that the monosac-charide components of GLP are L-galactose, D-glucose and D-mannose. GLP is confirmed by its characteristic absorption peak of infrared spectrum.

Key words: Chinese yam, glycoprtein, purification, character
