Better method for deglycosylation...?

The trouble to deglycosylate plant glycoprotein by the conventional enzymatic
digestion (e.g., PNGase F) may be the fact that there is a unique Fuc1->3core
GlcNAc which almost blocks the activity of PNGase F.  I dont know if there 
is a 1,3fucosidase that can remove this sugar before you digest with PNGase F.
