The heterogeneity of tumor cell populations according to binding of lectins from lentil (LcL), wheat germs (WGA), peanut (PNA) and concanavalin A was investigated on a model of murine Nemeth-Kellner lymphoma (NK/Ly) and leukemia L-1210. Bound lectins were detected by indirect immunochemical method using home obtained polyclonal antilectin antibodies and immunogold silver staining (IGSS) technique. Significant differences in binding of Con A were revealed between NK/Ly (67% Con A+) and L-1210 (7.2% Con A+) cells, while the differences in binding of other lectins with both types of tumor cells were not significant. A relatively high percentage of PNA+ cells was registered that can indicate a high degree of desialization of membrane glycoproteins. 相似文献

Concanavalin A-binding (Con A)-binding cell surface glycoproteins were isolated, via Con A-affinity chromatography, from Triton X-100-solubilized Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cell plasma membranes. The Con A binding glycoproteins isolated in this manner displayed a significantly different profile on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gels than did the Tritonsoluble surface components, which were not retarded by the Con A-Sepharose column. [125I]-Con A overlays of the pooled column fractions displayed on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electro-phoresis (SDS-PAGE) demonstrated that there were virtually no Con A receptors associated with the unretarded peak released by the Con A-Sepharose column, whereas the material which was bound and specifically eluted from the Con A-Sepharose column with the sugar hapten α-methyl-D-mannopyranoside contained at least 15 prominent bands which bound [125I]-Con A. In order to produce monoclonal antibodies against various cell surface Con A receptors, Balb/c mice were immunized with the pooled Con A receptor fraction. Following immunization spleens were excised from the animals and single spleen cell suspensions were fused with mouse myeloma P3/X63-Ag8 cells. Numerous hybridoma clones were subsequently picked on the basis of their ability to secrete antibody which could bind to both live and glutaraldehyde-fixed CHO cells as well as to the Triton-soluble fraction isolated from the CHO plasma membrane fraction. Antibody from two of these clones was able to precipitate a single [125I]-labeled CHO surface component of ~265,000 daltons. 相似文献

The mechanisms involved in susceptibility or resistance of neoplasic cells to lysis by NK cells are not well known. We have recently described a 12-kDa factor (NK-RIF), produced and released by different tumor cell lines, making K562 resistant to NK lysis without affecting the cytotoxic function of NK effector cells. In this paper we further study the mechanism involved in NK resistance of K562 mediated by NK-RIF and its biological implications. The results show that NK-RIF does not affect the binding capacity of target and effector cells nor the levels of HLA class I antigen expression on the target cells, as a proof that resistance to NK-mediated lysis is not always associated with a defect in target effector binding or with an increased MHC class I antigen expression. However NK-RIF-treated K562 loses its capacity to induce NK cell activation and the subsequent capacity to release NKCF and makes K562 resistant to lysis by NKCF. Therefore our results show that induction of resistance to NK cytotoxicity can be the result of the modulation of target structures responsible for inducing effector cell activation without affecting target/effector binding molecules. This indicates that the structures involved in adherence and activation of NK cells have a different nature and that molecules other than HLA participate in NK resistance. 相似文献

Migration of endothelial cells is one of the first cellular responses in the cascade of events that leads to re-endothelialization of an injured vessel and neovascularization of growing tissues and tumors. To examine the hypothesis that endothelial cells express a specific migration-associated phenotype, we analyzed the cell surface glycoprotein expression of migrating bovine aortic endothelial cell (BAECs). Light microscopic analysis revealed an upregulation of binding sites for the lectins Concanavalin A (Con A), wheat germ agglutinin (WGA), and peanut agglutinin after neuraminidase treatment (N-PNA) on migrating endothelial cells relative to contact-inhibited cells. These findings were confirmed and quantitated with an enzyme-linked lectin assay (ELLA) of circularly scraped BAEC monolayers. The expression of migration-associated cell surface glycoproteins was also analyzed by SDS-PAGE. The overall expression of cell surface glycoproteins was upregulated on migrating BAECs. Migrating BAECs expressed Con A- and WGA-binding glycoproteins with apparent molecular masses of 25 and 48 kD that were not expressed by contact-inhibited BAEC monolayers and, accordingly, disappeared as circularly scraped monolayers reached confluence. Subconfluent BAEC monolayers expressed the same cell surface glycoconjugate pattern as migrating endothelial cells. FACS analysis of circularly scraped BAEC monolayers showed that the phenotypic changes of cell surface glycoprotein expression after release from growth arrest occurred before the recruitment of the cells into the cell cycle (3 vs. 12 h). Suramin, which inhibits endothelial cell migration, abrogated the expression of the migration-associated phenotype and induced the expression of a prominent 28-kD Con A- and WGA-binding cell surface glycoprotein. These results indicate that endothelial cells express a specific migration-associated phenotype, which is characterized by the upregulation of distinct cellular glycoconjugates and the expression of specific migration-associated cell surface glycoproteins. 相似文献

The distribution of saccharide moieties in human interfollicular epidermis was studied with fluorochrome-coupled lectins. In frozen sections Concanavalin A (Con A), Lens culinaris agglutinin (LCA), Ricinus communis agglutinin I (RCAI), and wheat germ agglutinin (WGA) stained intensively both dermis and viable epidermal cell layers, whereas peanut agglutinin (PNA) bound only to living epidermal cell layers. Ulex europaeus agglutinin I (UEAI) bound to dermal endothelial cells and upper cell layers of the epidermis but left the basal cell layer unstained. Dolichos biflorus agglutinin (DBA) bound only to basal epidermal cells, whereas both soybean agglutinin (SBA) and Helix pomatia agglutinin (HPA) showed strong binding to the spinous and granular cell layers. On routinely processed paraffin sections, a distinctly different staining pattern was seen with many lectins, and to reveal the binding of some lectins a pretreatment with protease was required. All keratin-positive cells in human epidermal cell suspensions, obtained with the suction blister method, bound PNA, whereas only a fraction of the keratinocytes bound either DBA or UEAI. Such a difference in lectin binding pattern was also seen in epidermal cell cultures both immediately after attachment and in organized cell colonies. This suggests that in addition to basal cells, more differentiated epidermal cells from the spinous cell layer are also able to adhere and spread in culture conditions. Gel electrophoretic analysis of the lectin-binding glycoproteins in detergent extracts of metabolically labeled primary keratinocyte cultures revealed that the lectins recognized both distinct and shared glycoproteins. A much different lectin binding pattern was seen in embryonic human skin: fetal epidermis did not show any binding of DBA, whereas UEAI showed diffuse binding to all cell layers but gave a bright staining of dermal endothelial cells. This was in contrast to staining results obtained with a monoclonal cytokeratin antibody, which showed the presence of a distinct basal cell layer in fetal epidermis also. The results indicate that expression of saccharide moieties in human epidermal keratinocytes is related to the stage of cellular differentiation, different cell layers expressing different terminal saccharide moieties. The results also suggest that the emergence of a mature cell surface glycoconjugate pattern in human epidermis is preceded by the acquisition of cell layer-specific, differential keratin expression. 相似文献

To better understand the general distribution of glycoproteins and the distribution of specific glycoprotein-bound sugar residues in Paramecium, a survey of the binding pattern of selected lectins was carried out in P. tetraurelia, P. caudatum, and P. multimicronucleatum. Lectins studied were concanavalin A (Con A), Griffonia simplicifolia agglutinins I and II (GS I and GS II), wheat germ agglutinin (WGA), Ulex europaeus (UEA I), peanut agglutinin (PNA), Ricinis communis toxin (RCA60) and agglutinin (RCA120), soybean agglutinin (SBA), Bauhinia purpurea agglutinin (BPA), Dolichos biflorus agglutinin (DBA), and Maclura pomifera agglutinin (MPA). Those giving the most distinctive patterns were Con A, GS II, WGA, UEA I, and PNA. No significant differences were found between the three species. Concanavalin A, a mannose/glucose-binding lectin, diffusely labeled the cell surface and cytoplasm and, unexpectedly, the nuclear envelopes. Events of nuclear division, and nuclear size and number were thus revealed. Both WGA and GS II, which are N-acetylglucosamine-binding lectins, labeled trichocyst tips, the cell surface, and the oral region, revealing stages of stomatogenesis. The lectin WGA, in addition, labeled the compartments of the phagosome-lysosome system. The lectin PNA, an N-acetyl galactosamine/galactose-binding protein, was very specific for digestive vacuoles. Finally, UEA I, a fucose-binding lectin, brightly labeled trichocysts, both their tips and body outlines. We conclude that a judicious choice of lectins can be used to localize glycoproteins and specific sugar residues as well as to study certain events of nuclear division, cellular morphogenesis, trichocyst discharge, and events in the digestive cycle of Paramecium. 相似文献

In mice liver plasma membranes (PM), the binding affinity of receptors for [125I] human growth hormone (hGH) was dependent on the association time: after 18 hours, a high affinity receptor form with KA = 6.8 X 10(9) M-1 accumulated and, as compared to after 1 hour, an increase up to 88%, in a slow dissociating component was observed. Preincubation of PM with concanavalin A (Con A) or other lectins from Lens culinaris (LCA), Ricinus communis (RCA I), Wheat germ agglutinin (WGA) specifically inhibited the binding of hGH to receptors by 54, 28, 50 and 25%, respectively. Furthermore, PM pretreatment with Con A concomitantly increased the rate of dissociation of the hormone-receptor (H-R) complex to 92 or 65% after association for 1 or 18 hours. These Con A-induced alterations resulted from a reduced fraction of the slow dissociable component together with an increased rate constant. The treatment of PM with Con A subsequent to incubation with the hormone did not decrease hormone binding but caused the conversion of the class of hGH receptors exhibiting fast dissociation kinetics towards a form exhibiting slow ones. These data strongly suggest a role for glycoproteins of the N-acetyllactosaminic type in the affinity state of liver membrane hGH receptors. 相似文献

The plant lectin concanavalin A (Con A) possesses a remarkably specific capacity to bind primarily α-d-mannose or α-d-glucose sugar residues on macromolecules (cf. 1). The multivalent Con A will bind to carbohydrates on cell surfaces, and free binding sites on the attached Con A will bind to horseradish peroxidase which is a glycoprotein (2). Since peroxidase may be visualized by reaction with diaminobenzidine (3), it has been possible using this method to specifically “stain” carbohydrate residues on cell surface macromolecules (2, 4). The same principles for staining cell surfaces should apply to “staining” glycoproteins separated by polyacrylamide electrophoresis. In this paper, we examine the staining of glycoproteins in sciatic nerve by a Con A-peroxidase labeling technique. The method is more sensitive for mannose or glucose containing glycoproteins than the periodic acid-Schiff's (PAS) method commonly used. 相似文献

Distribution of glycocompounds in human spermatozoa was studied by using fluorescent lectin-conjugates. Con A bound predominantly to acrosomal and posterior head regions whereas RCA I bound to the acrosomal region of intact spermatozoa, stained in suspension. Other lectins used (LCA, WGA, SBA, PNA) stained the the entire sperm surface. In airdried sperm smears binding of both Con A and RCA I were identical with the staining pattern obtained with living cells whereas LCA, WGA, SBA and PNA now bound heavily into acrosomal region. As a similar staining pattern was obtained with permeabilized sperm cells, this staining is apparently due to binding to intracellular structures. The efficiency of Lens culinaris agglutinin affinity chromatography in purification of human sperm glycoproteins was tested after their external radiolabelling with the neuraminidase/galactose oxidase/sodium borohydride method. 22% of applicated radioactivity could be eluted from the column with the specific inhibitory saccharide, and most of the radiolabelled surface glycoproteins of the whole sperm lysate, were also present in the LCA affinity column eluate. LCA affinity chromatography seems thus be an effective method to enrich membrane glycoproteins of human spermatozoa. 相似文献

Exposure to hypoxia alters many aspects of endothelial cell metabolism and function; however, changes in surface glycoconjugates under these conditions have not been extensively evaluated. In the current studies, we examined surface glycoproteins of cultured bovine aortic (BAEC) and pulmonary arterial (BPAEC) endothelial cells under standard culture conditions (21% oxygen) and following exposure to hypoxia (0% oxygen) for varying time periods (30 min to 18 h) using a system of biotinylation, lectin binding (concanavalin A, Con A; Griffonia simplicifolia , GSA; Arachis hypogaea, PNA; Ricinus communis, RCA; or Triticum vulgaris, WGA), subsequent strep-avidin binding, and staining. Using these methods, we identified differences in lectin binding between the two cell types cultured in 21% oxygen with all lectins except PNA. With exposure to 0% oxygen, there was no change in lectin binding to most surface glycoproteins. Several surface glycoproteins, including glycoprotein IIIa on both cell types, demonstrated a time-dependent decrease in lectin binding; in addition, there was an increase in lectin binding to a few specific surface glycoproteins on each cell type within 30-60 min of exposure to 0% oxygen. These changes in specific surface glycoproteins were confirmed in both cell types by 125I labeling. Increased lectin binding was observed for Con A binding BAEC glycoproteins at molecular weight (MW) 116, 130, and 205 kDa, GSA binding BAEC glycoproteins at MW 120 and 205 kDa, and RCA binding BPAEC glycoproteins at MW 140 and 205 kDa. Increased binding of WGA or PNA was not observed during exposure to hypoxia. The specificity of lectin binding was further confirmed by competitive inhibition with the appropriate sugar. These studies demonstrate that there are baseline differences between BAEC and BPAEC cell surface glycoproteins and that exposure to hypoxia is associated with little change in lectin binding to most surface glycoproteins. There is, however, increased surface expression of a few glycoproteins that differ depending of the origin of the endothelial cell. Although the mechanism of this increase in lectin binding is not yet clear, subsequent studies suggested that it is due to increased availability of select carbohydrate moieties. The time course of these alterations suggests a possible role in the endothelial cell response to decreases in ambient oxygen tension. 相似文献

The "NK-triggering-antigen regulator" (Nktar) gene is a locus identified in the C57BL/6 genome which regulates the ability of unlabeled activated Con A blasts to compete for recognition of labeled syngeneic Con A blasts by BALB/c NK cells. Linkage analysis on Con A blasts from (BALB/c x CByB6F1) N2 backcross progeny for (1) relative level of competitive inhibition of BALB/c NK lysis of syngeneic Con A blasts and (2) genotypes at polymorphic microsatellite markers distributed throughout the mouse genome mapped the Nktar gene locus to a 5-cM region of chromosome 10 containing the interferon-gamma receptor (Ifngr) gene locus. N2 Con A blasts exhibited an inverse relationship between (a) their cell surface density of IFN-gammaR molecules detected by FACS with monoclonal anti-CD119 and (b) their cold target inhibition of BALB/c NK self-reactivity. Con A blasts from Ifngr(-/-) knockout mice showed a relatively high level of inhibition of BALB/c NK self-lysis and a relatively low level of class I MHC, which were both reversed by transient transfection with the Ifngr gene. Sequencing studies showed that Balb/c Ifngr encodes a Gly(69) whereas C57BL/6 Ifngr encodes Glu(69) due to a difference at nucleotide 284. Sequencing studies of N2 progeny demonstrated 100% concordance between their Nktar inhibitory phenotype and their Ifngr genotype. These findings demonstrate that the Nktar and Ifngr loci are identical. They further indicate that polymorphisms related to the Ifngr locus and affecting expression of cell surface IFN-gammaR may underlie genetic differences in the availability of NK-triggering antigens (NKTAgs) to recognition by self-reactive BALB/c NK cells by differentially affecting the ability of IFN-gammaR molecules to mediate up-regulation of NKTAg-masking class I molecules. 相似文献

The distribution of receptors for concanavalin A (Con A) and anionic groups on plasma membranes of developing blood cells was investigated in the rat. Glutaraldehyde-fixed bone marrow and circulating blood cells were exposed to ferritin-conjugated Con A or positively chaged ferric oxide (CI) and processed for electro n microscopy. The frequency of Con A and CI binding sites varied during different erythroid developmental stages and amont different leukoid cell types. There was a constant inverse relationship between Con A and CI binding sites. Among leukoid cells, Con A binding was high on plasma cells and macrophages, lower on neutrophils and lymphocytes, and still lower on eosinophils and basophils; CI binding was highest in the latter and lowest in plasma cells and macrophages. Among erythroid cells, there was a progressive increase in Con A and a decrease in CI binding after successive divisions of erythroblasts, and a progressive decrease in Con A and an increase in CI binding upon maturation of the orthochromatic erythroblast to the reticulocyte. The most pronounced modification in distribution of these sites occurred during nuclear expulsion: that protion of the plasma membrane surrounding the extruded nucleus was heavily labeled by Con A (up to four times that of the orthochromatic erythroblast) whereas the reticulocyte had considerably fewer sites. The situation was reversed with CI. The results suggest that the concentration of nonsialated glycoproteins (to which Con A binds) varies inversely to that of sialoproteins (to which CI binds) in the membrane of the differentiating erythroid cell. The remarkable changes observed at the time of nuclear extrusion suggest that there is either local modification of glycosylated groups with removal of sialyl residues from the membrane surrounding the extruded nucleus of selective segregation of membrane glycoproteins leading to a high concentration of sialoproteins (glycophroin) in the membrane of the mature erythrocyte. 相似文献

We have measured the association of platelet surface membrane proteins with Triton X-100 (Triton)-insoluble residues in platelets surface labeled with 125I. In both concanavalin A (Con A)-stimulated and resting platelets, this fraction is composed largely of polypeptides with apparent molecular weights of 45,000, 200,000, and 250,000 which comigrate with authentic actin, myosin heavy chain, and actin binding protein, respectively, as judged by PAGE in SDS. Less than 10% of the two major 125I-labeled surface glycoproteins, GPiib and GPIII, were associated with the Triton residue in resting platelets. Within 45 s after Con A addition, 80-95% of these two glycoproteins became associated with the Triton residue and the amount of sedimentable actin doubled. No cosedimentation of GPIIb and III with the cytoskeletal protein-containing Triton residue was seen when Con A was added to a Triton extract of resting cells, indicating that the sedimentation of GPIIb and III seen in Con A-stimulated platelets was not due to precipitation of the glycoproteins by Con A after detergent lysis. Treatment of Triton extracts of Con A-stimulated platelets with DNase I (deoxyribonucleate 5'-oligonucleotidido-hydrolase [EC 3.1.4.5]) inhibited the sedimentation of actin and the two surface glycoproteins in a dose-dependent manner. This inhibition of cosedimentation was not due to an effect of DNase I on Con A-glycoprotein interactions since these two glycoproteins could be quantitatively recovered by Con A- Sepharose affinity absorption in the presence of DNase I. When the Con A bound to the Triton residue was localized ultrastructurally, it was associated with cell-sized structures containing filamentous material. In intact cells, there was simultaneous immunofluorescent coredistribution of surface-bound Con A and myosin under conditions which induced a redistribution of platelet myosin. These data suggest that Con A can, in the intact platelet, induce physical interactions between certain surface glycoproteins and the internal cytoskeleton. 相似文献

Properties and characterization of a rat spleen cell-derived factor that induces resistance to natural killer cell lysis in YAC lymphoma cells 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Supernatants of Con A-stimulated rat spleen cell cultures contain a factor that induces relative resistance to NK cell-mediated cytotoxicity in the YAC cell line, a line that is otherwise highly susceptible to murine NK cell-mediated lysis. This NK-lysis resistance-inducing factor (LRIF) has a Mr of 12,600 Da, as determined by gel filtration chromatography, and an isoelectric pH of 4.8. NK-LRIF is heat labile and is de-activated by treatment with proteolytic enzymes. Unlike immune-IFN (IFN-gamma), NK-LRIF is not inactivated by pH 2 treatment, and antibodies capable of neutralizing IFN-alpha and IFN-gamma do not abrogate the effect of NK-LRIF. Highly purified IL-2 preparations lack NK-LRIF activity. NK-LRIF does not induce a general resistance to lysis in YAC cells, because control and NK-LRIF-treated YAC cells were equally susceptible to alloimmune cytotoxic T cells. YAC cells treated with NK-LRIF showed a marked enhancement (5- to 10-fold) in the expression of class I MHC Ag. This observation supports the proposition that the NK susceptibility of target cells could be inversely related to the expression of class I MHC Ag. 相似文献

Carbohydrate-containing structures in rat liver rough microsomes (RM) were localized and characterized using iodinated lectins of defined specificity. Binding of [125I]Con A increased six- to sevenfold in the presence of low DOC (0.04--0.05%) which opens the vesicles and allows the penetration of the lectins. On the other hand, binding of [125I]WGA and [125I]RCA increased only slightly when the microsomal vesicles were opened by DOC. Sites available in the intact microsomal fraction had an affinity for [125I]Con A 14 times higher than sites for lectin binding which were exposed by the detergent treatment. Lectin-binding sites in RM were also localized electron microscopically with lectins covalently bound to biotin, which, in turn, were visualized after their reaction with ferritin-avidin (F-Av) markers. Using this method, it was demonstrated that in untreated RM samples, binding sites for lectins are not present on the cytoplasmic face of the microsomal vesicles, even after removal of ribosomes by treatment with high salt buffer and puromycin, but are located on smooth membranes which contaminate the rough microsomal fraction. Combining this technique with procedures which render the interior of the microsomal vesicles accessible to lectins and remove luminal proteins, it was found that RM membranes contain binding sites for Con A and for Lens culinaris agglutinin (LCA) located exclusively on the cisternal face of the membrane. No sites for WGA, RCA, soybean (SBA) and Lotus tetragonobulus (LTA) agglutinins were detected on either the cytoplasmic or the luminal faces of the rough microsomes. These observations demonstrate that: (a) sugar moieties of microsomal glycoproteins are exposed only on the luminal surface of the membranes and (b) microsomal membrane glycoproteins have incomplete carbohydrate chains without the characteristic terminal trisaccharides N-acetylglucosamine comes from galactose comes from sialic acid or fucose present in most glycoproteins secreted by the liver. The orientation and composition of the carbohydrate chains in microsomal glycoproteins indicate that the passage of these glycoproteins through the Golgi apparatus, followed by their return to the endoplasmic reticulum, is not required for their biogenesis and insertion into the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane. 相似文献

Abstract: This study examined changes in composition and concanavalin A (Con A) binding of axonally transported glycoproteins and their pronase-generated glycopeptides in regenerating garfish olfactory nerve. A previous study had demonstrated a regeneration-related increase in the proportion of [3 H]glucosamine label in lower-molecular-weight Con A-binding glycopeptides derived from transported glycoproteins. Further analysis of carbohydrate composition shows that these molecules resemble mannose-rich oligosaccharides in composition and are increased in absolute amount in regenerating nerve. Subcellular analysis shows that the Con A-binding glycopeptides are enriched in membrane subfractions, particularly in a high-density fraction that morphologically resembles isolated cell surface coat. Regeneration-related changes in intact axonally transported glycoproteins were also detected. Sodium dodecyl sulfate gel electrophoresis of transport-labeled glycoproteins disclosed growth-correlated increases in radioactivity associated with 180–200K, 105–115K, and 80–90K components, while a 150–160K molecular weight class of glycoproteins was diminished in relative labeling. Intact glycoproteins displaying an affinity for Con A were also augmented in regenerating nerve, the increases occurring primarily in molecules in the 50–140K range. 相似文献

Concanavalin A (Con A), a tetravalent lectin, was shown to impair 8 chick embryo fibroblast (8 d CEF) spreading on a laminin (LM) substrate but not on a fibronectin substrate (FN), suggesting that cell surface Con A binding proteins could be involved in 8 d CEF spreading on a LM substrate. The interaction of Con A-binding proteins with Con A is dependent upon the carbohydrate moieties of the isolated glycoproteins; since they interact strongly with Con A-Sepharose and are eluted with 0.3 Mol/l alpha-methylmannopyranoside, the isolated Con A binding-proteins inhibit 8 d CEF adhesion to a Con A substrate to the same extent as alpha-methylmannopyranoside. Furthermore, the isolated Con A binding proteins specifically inhibit in a dose-dependent manner 8 d CEF spreading on LM but not on FN. 相似文献

We used fracture-label to establish ultrastructural localization of glycoproteins in cross-fractured nuclei of duodenal columnar and exocrine pancreatic cells. Mannose residues were detected in cell nuclei by labeling freeze-fractured tissues with concanavalin A-horseradish peroxidase X colloidal gold (Con A-HRP X CG) or direct concanavalin A X colloidal gold (Con A X CG); fucose residues were detected with Ulex Europaeus I X colloidal gold (UEA I X CG) markers. Areas of the three main intranuclear compartments (euchromatin, heterochromatin, and nucleolus) exposed by freeze-fracture were determined by automated image analysis. Colloidal gold particles bound to each nuclear subcompartment were counted and the results expressed in number of colloidal gold particles per square micrometer +/- SEM. Duodenal and pancreatic tissues fractured and labeled with Con A-HRP X CG complex or direct Con A X CG conjugates showed that the vast majority of Con A binding sites was confined to euchromatin regions with only sparse labeling of the heterochromatin and nucleolus. UEA I labeling of duodenal columnar cells showed that colloidal gold particles were almost exclusively confined to cross-fractured areas where euchromatin is exposed. Trypsinization of the fractured tissues before labeling with Con A and UEA I abolished 95-100% of the original label. Our results show that, within the nucleoplasm, mannose and fucose are residues of glycoproteins preferentially located within the regions of euchromatin. 相似文献
