The structural proteins in purified preparations of variola, monkeypox, and vaccinia viruses were separated and compared by using a high resolution SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis system. About 30 proteins were resolved for each virus by autoradiography of longitudinally-sliced gel rods. Although the autoradioelectropherograms of each virus were similar, it was possible to differentiate them by their unique protein pattern in the 30,000 to 40,000 molecular weight region of the gels. A single virion glycoprotein (mol. wt. = 38 X 10(3)) and a virion phosphoprotein (mol. wt. = 12 X 10(3)) were associated with each of the virus preparations. Cross-absorbed monospecific immune sera against variola, monkeypox, and vaccinia virus-infected cells were used in immunodiffusion tests to precipitate radiolabeled, homologous, soluble antigen proteins. The predominant antigen protein associated with each immunospecific precipitate had a molecular weight of approximately 73,000.

Alkaline phosphatase of cultured rat ascites hepatoma cells has been purified by butanol extraction, DEAE-cellulose column chromatography, gel filtration through Sephadex G-200, concanavalin A-Sepharose affinity chromatography, and polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Affinity chromatography confirmed the glycoprotein nature of alkaline phosphatase from cultured rat ascites hepatoma cells. Electrophoresis on polyacrylamide gels of various concentrations indicated a molecular weight of 290,000. The molecular weight of the subunit was estimated to be 72,000 by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. These findings suggest that alkaline phosphatase of cultured rat ascites hepatoma cells is a tetramer with a subunit molecular weight of 72,000.

Synaptic membranes were isolated from the forebrains of rats of increasing postnatal ages. Developmentally related changes in the structure and concnetration of synaptic membrane glycoproteins were indicated by: (1) a 2--3 fold increase in glycoprotein sialic acid between 5 and 60 days; (2) a similar increase in the number of membrane receptors for the lectins concanavalin A and wheat germ agglutinin; (3) transient increases between 10 and 17 days in the receptors for lentil and castor bean lectins and (4) an age dependent stimulation of castor bean lectin binding by neuraminidase. Labelling of SDS polysacrylamide gels of synaptic membranes with [125I]concanavalin A or wheat germ agglutinin revealed specific, age dependent changes in the lectin binding properties of individual molecular weight classes of glycoproteins. Differences in the glycoproteins composition of synaptic junctional complexes isolated from 10 and 28-day-old brains were also revealed by lectin binding studies. The results indicate that the number and structure of oligosaccharides associated with synaptic membrane glycoproteins are under developmental regulation.

The structural polypeptides of egg grown mumps virus were analysed by SDS-polyacrylamide-slab-gel electrophoresis. Mumps virions contained eight major polypeptides with mol. wt. of 75, 73, 71, 61, 47, 44, 42 and 40 X 10(3). The 75 K and 61 K polypeptides were glycosylated. In virions treated with pronase and trypsin, the 75 K glycoprotein was removed more readily from the virus than the 61 K glycoprotein. The gradual removal of the 75 K glycoprotein was paralleled by a decrease of haemagglutinating activity. The large glycoprotein was cleaved into a 40 K glycoprotein by trypsin treatment. Pronase and trypsin treatment also removed the smallest 40 K non-glycosylated polypeptide. Thus this polypeptide appears to be located on the outside of the virion and probably represents a cleavage product of the large glycoprotein. Treatment of virions with 2% Triton-X 100 under alkaline conditions in the absence or presence of 2 M-KCl solubilized the two glycoproteins and a fraction of the 71 and 44 K polypeptides, but not the 73 and 47 K polypeptides. The two smallest polypeptides were solubilized by treatment with 2% Triton X-100 in the presence of 2 M-KCl. Since the 40 K polypeptide was interpreted to represent a cleavage product of the large surface glycoprotein the 42 K polypeptide was proposed to represent the membrane protein of mumps virus. The 44 K polypeptide co-migrated with Vero cell actin. The nature of the 47 K polypeptide could not be determined, but it is probably located in the central part of the virus. The 73 K polypeptide and in some experiments also the 71 K polypeptide were found in purified nucleocapsid preparations. It is concluded that mumps virus has a general polypeptide composition similar to other paramyxoviruses. However, the molecular weights of the different polypeptides of mumps virus differ markedly from the corresponding polypeptides in Newcastle disease virus and Sendai virus.

We have analyzed the surfacr proteins of cultured normal rat kidney (NRK) cells and virus-transformed NRK cells subjected to iron deprivation. Such a treatment specifically induces two transformation-sensitive plasma membrane-associated glycoproteins with a subunit molecular weight of 160,000 (160 K) and 130,000 (130 K) daltons in NRK cells. In these cells the 160 K glycoprotein is readily available to lactoperoxidase-mediated iodination, and the 130 K is apparently inaccessible to iodination. Major differences were revealed when iodinated membrane proteins of normal and virus-transformed cells subjected to iron deprivation were compared. In Kirsten sarcoma virus-transformed NRK cells the 160 K glycoprotein was weakly labeled. In two clones of simian virus 40-transformed NRK cells the 160 K glycoprotein was weakly labeled or not at all. The 130 K glycoprotein was inaccessible to iodination in all virus-transformed cell lines. The 160 K and 130 K glycoproteins were isolated from plasma membranes of NRK cells using preparative SDS gel electrophoresis. Antibodies generated against these glycoproteins stained the external surfaces of NRK cells and induced antigen redistribution. Evidence presented suggests that 160 K and 130 K are plasma membrane-associated procollagen molecules. A possible interaction of these proteins with transferrin is also described. The data suggest that these proteins may have an important role in the sequence of events leading to transformation.

The mouse myeloid leukemia cell line (M1) is known to differentiate in vitro into macrophages and granulocytes upon treatment with various inducers including mouse ascitic fluid. Changes of cell surface proteins during differentiation of M1 cells were analyzed by the lactoperoxidase-catalyzed radioiodination method and SDS-polyacrylamide slab gel electrophoresis. Treatment of the cells with ascitic fluid changed the electrophoretic pattern of the iodinated proteins, the prominent change being the appearance of a new protein with a molecular weight of 180 000 (P180). Iodinated P180 was also detected in normal macrophages in granulocytes, which are similar to differentiated M1 cells. This protein was metabolically labeled with L-[14C]fucose, increasing with the period of the treatment. P180 was not expressed on ascitic fluid-treatment of a resistant clone of M1 cells that could not be induced to differentiate. These results indicate that P180 is a glycoprotein that is exposed on the outer surface of differentiated M1 cells, and that its expression is associated with differentiation of the cells. P180 was solubilized from 125I-labeled macrophages with detergents bound to concanavalin A-Sepharose. This suggests that P180 is one of the receptors for concanavalin A. Therefore, P180 may contribute partly to the increases in agglutinability by concanavalin A and in the number of concanavalin A binding sites on the surface of M1 cells, which are known to be associated with differentiation of M1 cells.

Plasma membranes of splenic and thymic lymphocytes from ACI rats were analyzed for their protein and glycoprotein components by surface radioiodination with 125I and SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The glycoproteins were extracted with lithium diiodosalicylate, characterized and assayed with antisera to thymic antigen. Plasma membranes of both cell types showed more than 25 proteins of which 10--15 were glycoproteins. Both cells showed five major glycoproteins but their apparent molecular weights or intensities differed. Surface radioiodination showed a 120 000 daltons component, common to both cell types, and a 27 000 daltons thymus-specific component as the most exposed surface glycoproteins. Lithium diiodosalicylate extracts of the plasma membranes contained almost all of the glycoprotein components and comprised 5-6 percent of the total membrane protein and 40-50 percent of the total membrane carbohydrate, with sialic acid content in thymus twice that of the spleen cells. About 1 percent of the total plasma membrane protein and 7 percent of the total isolated glycoproteins from thymocytes were reactive with rabbit anti-rat thymocyte antiserum and the immune precipitates showed two components with apparent molecular weights of 72 000 and 27 000.

CSF was prepared by the growth of L cells in serum-free culture medium. This conditioned medium was subjected to a six-step purification schedule which included ultrafiltration, alcohol precipitation, and separation by DEAE-cellulose, Con A-Sepharose, Sephadex G-150, and sucrose density-gradient centrifugation. The resultant CSF was 1000-fold purified with 50% to 70% recovery of the starting activity. Granulocyte and macrophage colony formation was detected with 5 x 10(-12M CSF; maximum colonies were obtained with 3 ng per marrow culture. Two major peaks of activity were obtained; one was nonadherent to Con A, whereas the other was bound and specifically eluted with alpha-methylglucoside. Both fractions contained carbohydrate residues as they stained avidly with PAS, were inactivated by periodate, and showed altered electrophoretic mobility after treatment with neuraminidase. Following iodination, each purified fraction migrated in a single band in SDS-acrylamide gels. The molecular weight was estimated as 65,000 to 70,000 daltons. Following reduction with mercaptoethanol, the CSF fractions were reduced into subunits with molecular weights of approximately 35,000. These studies confirm the glycoprotein nature and subunit composition of L cell CSF. The methods described herein are useful for the purification of both the Con A-adherent and con A-nonadherent forms of CSF.

Inhibitor of DNA synthesis (IDS) is a T-lymphocyte factor, whose role in immunnoregulation might be to nonspecifically suppress the immune system especially in situations where very high, prolonged tolerogenic doses of antigens are present. We have purified IDS-contained supernates of stimulated lymphocytes to homogeneity, through isoelectric focusing and Sephadex gel chromatography. IDS has an isoelectric point of 2.73-2.75 and in its monomeric form has a mol wt of 20,000 but exists in the supernate usually as an aggregated tetrameric form. Di- and trimeric forms are also seen. All forms are biologically active. Purity was confirmed by SDS gel electrophoresis and the binding of dansyl chloride to terminal or free amino groups of proteins and peptides. We have, further confirmed that pure IDS is not cytotoxic and is probably a glycoprotein whose activity depends on an intact carbohydrate moiety.

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.
