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.

Immunological and chemical studies of cell surfaces from normal and transformed BALB/c fibroblasts have shown alterations associated with transformation. The cells studied include normal lines which do not cause tumors when injected into BALB/c mice, viral transformants, and spontaneous transformants which cause tumors that either regress or grow progressively, killing the host. The spontaneously transformed progressors include cell lines which are immunogenic and nonimmunogenic as determined by the ability of tumor excision to protect an animal from subsequent rechallenge by tumor cells. Tumor-bearing mice produce lymphocytes which are nonspecifically cytotoxic for all the normal and transformed lines. Some of the cell lines induce specific antibody formation in BALB/hosts. Antisera have been prepared in rabbits which are specific for the transformed cell lines. These antisera can be used to determine specific surface changes on the transformed cells. Chemical studies have shown glycolipid alterations between the normal cells and some, but not all, of the transformants. Glycoproteins labeled by lactoperoxidase-125I or [3H] glucosamine were compared by SDS gel electrophoresis. Results from these studies do not show changes associated with malignancy. Individual glycoprotein regions from gels were treated with pronase, and the glycopeptides compared by Sephadex G50 chromatography. Alterations in glycopeptides from several cellular glycoproteins are the only changes which appear to be associated with malignancy.

The testosterone-binding globulin (TeBG) from bovine serum was purified by affinity chromatography and hydroxylapatite chromatography. The affinity column used was prepared by coupling 17 alpha-carboxyethynyl-17-hydroxy-4-androsten-3-one to aminoethyl-Sepharose. The compound was replaceable by 17alpha-carboxyethynyl-17-hydroxy-5alpha-androstan-3-one, but not by testosterone 17-hemisuccinate, estradiol 17-hemisuccinate, or testosterone 3-(O-carboxymethyl)oxime. The TeBG isolated was homogeneous on analytical polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and equilibrium centrifugation. The protein was a glycoprotein having a molecular weight of 89,500 and a carbohydrate content of 17%. The association constant (M-1) at 4 degrees C was 1.1 X 10(8) and the number of binding sites per molecule was 0.8. Treatment with guanidine-HCl dissociated the protein into subunits having a molecular weight of 28,400 (about one-third of that of the original molecule). SDS-gel electrophoresis showed that two of the three subunits were slightly larger than the other. The dissociation into subunits could also be accomplished by GEDTA treatment with concomitant loss of testosterone-binding activity. The activity and molecular size were reversibly restored by incubation with excess Ca2+.

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.

Activation of C in C8-depleted serum results in the formation of a soluble complex containing C5, C6, and C7. The complex has an electrophoretic mobility of an alpha-globulin, an s-rate of 18.5S, and a m.w. of 668,000 daltons. This complex was isolated and upon SDS polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis it was found to contain, in addition to C5b, C6 and C7, an 88,000 dalton glycoprotein. The protein was identified as the band V protein of the soluble C5b-9 complex. It is referred to as SIIIs-protein, or S-protein. Since the S-protein does not bind to C5b-6, it is concluded that it is incorporated during the fusion of C5b-6 with C7. The SC5b-7 complex exhibits the same neoantigen as the SC5b-9 complex, but compared to the C5b-6 complex it appears to contain an additionally qualitatively distinct neoantigen.

Surface proteins and glycoproteins of RBL cells were labelled enzymatically with 125I and then solubilized with Nonidet P-40. Analysis by polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis in SDS on 10% gel revealed 10 distinctive peaks ranging in molecular weights from 17,000 to 200,000 daltons. Mainly components of higher molecular weights were bound by lentil-lectin Sepharose and could be eluted with alpha-methyl mannoside. The receptor for IgE was clearly shown to bind to the lentil-lectin. A second cell surface component which previously had been shown to bind to IgE-Sepharose as well, was found to bind only slightly to lentil-lectin. Thus, it can be concluded that the receptor for IgE is a glycoprotein with mannose and/or N-acetylglucosamine in the carbohydrate moiety(s).

The crude red cell glycoproteins obtained by four different methods are compared. The most selective isolation of the major membrane glycoprotein (MN blood group glycoprotein) is achieved by the phenol-water extraction procedure. A different degree of aggregation of this glycoprotein in water and in various buffers is demonstrated. The gel filtration of the crude glycoprotein on a Sepharose 4B column in 0.05 M pyridine--acetate buffer of pH 5.3 gives four fractions with different chemical compostition and serologic properties. The fractions obtained are heterogenous in SDS-PAGE and represent different kinds of glycoprotein aggregates. The distribution of serologic activities in the fractions obtained indicates that A, B and I activities found in the crude prepration of red cell glycoprotein are not connected with MN glycoprotein.

Human erythrocyte membranes and the glycoprotein isolated by phenol-water extraction of membranes were fractionated by gel filtration on Bio-Gel P-300 in 1% SDS. It was shown by this procedure that lipids (and possibly other membrane components) promote the dissociation of glycoprotein aggregates in SDS-containing solutions. The isolated glycoprotein gives several fractions on gel filtration in 1% SDS. The main fraction contains the major sialogylcoprotein (MN), which can be obtained in an electrophoretically homogeneous form (PAS-1) when only a part of the major peak is pooled and re-chromatographed. The purified glycoprotein has elevated MN blood group activity, does not show I activity, and contains components of alkalibabile oligosaccharide chains in slightly higher proportion than crude glycoprotein. The other fractions have distinctly different carbohydrate composition and contain glycoproteins of different electorphoretic mobility in SDS-PAGE.

The physiological protien and glycoprotein excretions in the urine samples of a larger group of newborn infants were separated according to the molecular weights by SDS polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and compared with the protein excretions of older children. We found higher proportions of albumin, of high molecular weight (MW = molecular weight greater than or equal to 150 000 dt) and of lower molecular weight (MW less than albumin 6800 dt) proteins in the first 24-h urine samples after birth. One week after birth the low molecular weight proteins predominated because there was a substantial decrease in the excretion of albumin and of high molecular weight proteins (MW greater than or equal to 150 000 dt). We compared the patterns of protein excretion of the newborn infants with those of children aged from 2 1/2 to 15 years. These urines samples showed a typical pattern of protein excretion not correlated to the age. These findings express a transitory immaturity of the glomerular filter and of the tubular protein reabsorbing system of the newborn kidney. Apparently, the tubular protein handling normalizes later than the glomerular filtration of proteins.

Platelets from a patient with eosinophilic leukaemia were not aggregated by ristocetin. The defect was not corrected by normal human plasma and was due to a platelet abnormality. The patient's platelets also showed a diminished sensitivity to aggregation by bovine factor VIIIVWF. The defect was not associated with a prolonged bleeding time. No abnormalities were detected in ADP, collagen or thrombin-induced platelet aggregation. Biochemical studies showed that the platelets were deficient in sialic acid. This deficiency was associated with a reduced staining for glycoprotein I following SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The results suggest an acquired platelet surface abnormality.
