The proteolysis of thyroglobulin was performed after partial cleavage of its carbohydrate moiety. It was demonstrated that enzymatic removal of some thyroglobulin sialic acids results in increasing its resistance to proteolysis. Apparently, sialic acids are essential for maintaining an optimal thyroglobulin conformation for the action of proteases at hormonal biosynthesis from the reserve form.
