A human T lymphocyte associated antigen (TLAA), defined with appropriately absorbed antisera to the lymphoblastoid cell line HSB, was originally characterized as a 150,000 mol. wt antigen using sodium deoxycholate solubilized, 125I Bolton-Hunter labelled membranes of HSB, thymus and peripheral blood lymphocytes. The TLAA, which appears to be the major membrane protein labelled with either the Bolton-Hunter, or galactose oxidase-sodium 3H borohydride methods, is weakly labelled in vitro with a 3H amino acid mixture and appears to be a minor membrane component by Coomassie blue staining of detergent solubilized HSB membranes. The antigen is trypsin-sensitive and not extractable with 3 M KCl. The glycoprotein nature of the antigen is suggested by its binding to a Lens culinaris column and its labelling by the galactose oxidase-sodium 3H borohydride and 3H glucosamine methods. Both gel filtration chromatography and sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis studies on 4% SDS gels indicate that the mol. wt. of the antigen is approximately 170,000 Daltons.

1. The membrane glycoprotein composition of the blood platelets of 13 mammalian species has been compared by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. 2. A basic pattern of 2-3 predominant high molecular weight glycoprotein bands was observed, however species differences in their relative rates of migration and abundance were apparent. 3. Wide species differences in the number and rate of migration of the acidic glycopeptides released by trypsin digestion of washed platelet suspensions were observed following polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in the absence of SDS.

The receptors for aggregated immunoglobulin G (IgG) (an Fc receptor) and for ristocetin-von Willebrand factor on human platelets were studied by means of various modifications of the platelet surface. The expression of these receptors was measured by the agglutination of platelets to ristocetin in the presence of von Willebrand factor, which is part of the factor VIII complex, and by the binding of aggregated IgG coupled to 3H-labelled diazobenzene. Treatment of platelets with chymotrypsin, trypsin, papain and pronase which removed protein and glycoprotein from the platelet under conditions where the release reaction was inhibited caused loss of the expression of the receptor for ristocetin-von Willebrand factor and an enhancement of that for aggregated IgG. Induction of membrane changes with ADP and of the release reaction with the ionophore A23187 abolished agglutination to ristocentin-von Willebrand factor but did not alter the receptor for aggregated IgC. Possible contributions of unspecific membrane changes, produced by protease treatment of platelets, to the modification of receptor expression were eliminated by the use of formaldehyde-treated platelets. Trypsin, papain and pronase destroyed the ability of these platelets to agglutinate to ristocetin-von Willebrand factor but produced no change in the binding of aggregated IgC. Therefore, the receptor for ristocetin-von Willebrand factor is truly sensitive to proteolysis while the Fc receptor is not, but is partially masked by protease-sensitive material.

We have quantitated the transformation-sensitive, cell surface LETS glycoprotein on many untransformed cell types. By SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, this trypsin-sensitive iodinatable glycoprotein comprises 1-3% of total cellular protein of the seven early passage cell types tested. In contrast, it constitutes less than 0.15% of the protein in four of six continuous cell lines. This decrease is reflected in alterations both in [14C]glucosamine labeling and in the immunofluorescent staining of early passage vs. these four permanent cell lines. These results help to clarify previous experiments in which CSP, a purified LETS protein, partially restored a fibroblastic phenotype to cells transformed by tumor viruses. These findings also indicate that a major decrease in this cell surface glycoprotein can occur in the establishment of a continuous cell line without resulting in cellular transformation.

The heterophile antigen (Paul-Bunnell antigen, PBA) of infectious mononucleosis was isolated by extraction of an aqueous suspension of bovine erythrocyte stromata with chloroform-methanol (2:1). The upper aqueous layer contained gangliosides, PBA, and a high-molecular-weight glycoprotein. PBA and gangliosides were separated from the high-molecular-weight glycoprotein by extraction of lyophilized upper layer with chloroform-methanol solvents. Separation of PBA from gangliosides was carried out by chromatography on DEAE-cellulose with chloroform-methanol solvents. PBA appeared to be a minor glycoprotein component of the erythrocyte membrane and had both hydrophobic and hydrophilic properties. It was soluble in either organic or aqueous solvents. On SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, it migrated as a single component that stained for protein with Coomassie blue, for carbohydrate with periodic acid-Schiff reagent, and for lipid with oil red 0; it had an apparent molecular weight of 26,000. It was composed of 62% protein with major amino acids; glutamic acid, proline, glycine, isoleucine, leucine, and threonine (158, 116, 98, 90, 85, and 82 residues per 1,000 residues, respectively). Carbohydrate content was 9.2% with major sugar constituents: sialic acid, galactosamine, and galactose. Serologic activity of PBA was destroyed by pronase but not by trypsin.

The intercellular adhesiveness of density-inhibited (D.I.) and fast-growing (F.G.) HeLa cells and of trypsin-treated preparations of these, has been measured at temperatures between 37 and 6 degrees C. In EDTA-containing buffer medium, F.G. cells differ from D.I. cells in that only the former display an increase in adhesiveness below 30 degrees C. This increase is prevented by previous treatment with trypsin. The presence of Ca2+ in the buffer medium causes a narrowing of the thermal transition region of intact F.G. cells. On intact D.I. cells Ca2+ causes an increase in adhesiveness at temperatures below 20 degrees C. Previous trypsinization of F.G. cells diminishes the effect of subsequent Ca2+ addition. The adhesiveness of trypsinized D.I. cells is indifferent to changes in temperature in Ca2+-containing buffer medium. The results are considered evidence for the occurrence of a phase transition in the glycoprotein domains of the plasma membrane of fast-growing cells. The transition is influenced by growth rate, trypsinization and Ca2+. The fluidity of the membrane glycoproteins is considered to be higher on density-inhibited cells than on fast-growing cells. No phase transition could be detected after incorporation of the fluorescent compound 1,6-diphenyl 1,3,5-hexatriene into the lipid domain of the plasma membrane. The fluidity of the membrane lipids is lower on density-inhibited cells than on fast-growing cells.

An ultrastructural, histochemical and chemical analysis of storage elements in the infantile form of Gaucher's disease showed that in addition to cerebroside the lysosomes also included a non-lipid component of protein, or possibly glycoprotein nature. This component, easily removable with trypsin, was present in such quantities that it conditioned the typical solid and fibrillar appearance of storage elements even after they had been substantially delipidized. Another noteworthy finding was that the ultrastructural appearance of tubular structures generally regarded as stored cerebrosides persisted in all the extracted specimens without any noticeable change. The findings are compared with available data from the literature and their significance briefly discussed.

Ovomucoid from the egg white of turtle-dove (Streptopelia risoria) was purified and shown to be a glycoprotein of mol. wt. 29 400, with valine as N-terminal residue. It is an inhibitor of both trypsin and chymotrypsin, but has a lower affinity for trypsin than has hen ovomucoid. Turtle-dove ovomucoid contains antigenic activity cross-reacting with the blood-group-P1 antigen of human erythrocytes. Hen ovomucoid has no detectable blood group-P1 activity. The carbohydrate composition of turtle-dove ovomucoid differs from hen ovomucoid in having substantially higher galactose content. The possible relationship between carbohydrate composition and antigenic activity is discussed.

Concentrations of trypsin that bring about aggregation of hepatoma tissue culture (HTC) cells also release from the cell surface an Mr = 55,000 glycopeptide fragment. This glycopeptide fragment also accumulates in the medium, including serum-free medium, as a normal consequence of membrane protein turnover. The trypsin-released glycopeptide is labeled when cells are grown in the presence of fucose or leucine before treatment of the cells with the protease. Similarly, the glycopeptide fragment can be labeled by reacting cells in situ by lactoperoxidase-catalyzed radioiodination or by tritiated borohydride reduction of cells treated first with neuraminidase and galactose oxidase. The tryptic glycopeptide fragment was purified by concanavalin A-Sepharose chromatography, and hydroxyapatite chromatography in the presence of dodecyl sulfate. The amino acid and carbohydrate composition was determined, as was the sensitivity of the purified glycopeptide to a variety of endo- and exoglycosidases. The purified glycopeptide contains an average of 17 sialic acid residues and hence, shows charge heterogeneity after electrophoresis in isoelectric focusing gels. The charge heterogeneity can be eliminated completely by treatment with neuraminidase. The glycopeptide after this treatment is homogeneous. The trypsin-sensitive membrane glycoprotein which is the source of the Mr = 55,000 glycopeptide was identified by two-dimensional gel electrophoretic analysis of labeled cells, treated or not treated with trypsin. This glycoprotein, which has an apparent molecular weight of 85,000 and forms a homodimer in the presence of calcium ions, was purified and its identity as the parent of the Mr = 55,000 glycopeptide was confirmed by showing that the same Mr = 55,000 fragment was released by trypsin from the purified glycoprotein as was released from the intact cells.

A soluble glycoprotein of Mr = 80,000 has been isolated from lung lavage of patients with alveolar proteinosis and found to contain 5 residues of hydroxyproline, 91 residues of glycine, 3 residues of methionine, 3.8 molecules of sialic acid, 6 molecules of mannose, 5.9 molecules of galactose, 1 molecule of fucose, and 9.1 molecules of glucosamine. Cyanogen bromide (CNBr) treatment of the glycoprotein resulted in four peptides with molecular weights of 36,000, 27,000, 12,000, and 5,000. The chemical compositions of the CNBr peptides indicated the presence of hydroxyproline and high amounts of glycine in all but one of the peptides; two of the four CNBr peptides contained carbohydrate. Limited trypsin digestion of the glycoprotein of Mr = 80,000 resulted in four peptides with molecular weights of 62,000, 36,000, 26,000 and 18,000, the latter being the NH2-terminal peptide of the native glycoprotein molecule. The peptide of Mr = 26,000 was found to be the COOH-terminal peptide.
