Yes, PNGase F enzyme may be used in both native and denaturing conditions

When the protein is not denatured with SDS, PNGase F has to work harder to reach the cleavage site of the carbohydrate (due to secondary and tertiary protein structures). In these instances, using more enzyme and/or extended incubation times may help. These conditions will need to be determined empirically for your specific protein.

PNGase F enzyme is stored in 50% glycerol. Therefore, HPLC and/or mass spectrometry is not compatible due to the fact that glycerol is not tolerated in instruments used for these applications.

Typical reaction conditions are as follows:
Optimal incubation times and enzyme concentrations must be determined empirically for a particular substrate.
1. Combine 1-20 µg of glycoprotein, 1 µL of 10X denaturing buffer (5% SDS, 400 mM DTT) and H2O (if necessary) to make a 10 µL total reaction volume.
2. Denature glycoprotein by heating reaction at 100 degrees C for 10 min.
3. Make a total reaction volume of 20 µL by adding 2 µL PNGaseF 10X Buffer, 1-5 µL PNGaseF enzyme, 2 µL 10% NP-40 and H2O.
4. Incubate reaction at 37 degrees C for 1 hr.
Note: Reactions may be scaled-up linearly to accommodate larger reaction volumes.

As PNGase F is a glycoamidase, the asparagine gets converted into aspartic acid.
