Abstract
The invention resides in oligosaccharide derivatives which are obtained by the enzynmatic cleavage of carbohydrates linked to proteins through asparagine groups. The oligosaccharide moieties of the instant invention are 1-amino-1-deoxyoligosaccharide compounds which are cleaved from a glycoprotein with an aminohydrolase enzyme, wherein the amino group of the oligosaccharide is subsequently substituted with a fluorescent reporter compound. The compounds of the instant invention are characterized by the glycosylamine bonds exhibiting less than 10% hydrolysis at 25.degree. C. in aqueous solution over a two days at pH values between 4-10.
