Ligand-induced association of epidermal growth factor receptor to the cytoskeleton of A431 cells 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6

Recently, we have obtained evidence in favor of a structural interaction between the epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor and the Triton X-100-insoluble cytoskeleton of epidermoid carcinoma A431 cells. Here we present a further analysis of the properties of EGF receptors attached to the cytoskeleton. Steady-state EGF binding studies, analyzed according to the Scatchard method, showed that A431 cells contain two classes of EGF-binding sites: a high-affinity site with an apparent dissociation constant (KD) of 0.7 nM (7.5 x 10(4) sites per cell) and a low-affinity site with a KD of 8.5 nM (1.9 x 10(6) sites per cell). Non-equilibrium binding studies revealed the existence of two kinetically distinguishable sites: a fast-dissociating site, with a dissociation rate constant (k-1) of 1.1 x 10(-3) s-1 (1.0-1.3 x 10(6) sites per cell) and a slow-dissociating site, with a k-1 of 3.5 x 10(-5) s-1 (0.6-0.7 x 10(6) sites per cell). The cytoskeleton of A431 cells was isolated by Triton X-100 extraction. Scatchard analysis revealed that approximately 5% of the original number of receptors were associated with the cytoskeleton predominantly via high-affinity sites (KD = 1.5 nM). This class of receptors is further characterized by the presence of a fast-dissociating component (k-1 = 2.0 x 10(-3) s-1) and a slow-dissociating component (k-1 = 9.1 x 10(-5) s-1). The distribution between fast and slow sites of the cytoskeleton was similar to that of intact cells (65% fast and 35% slow sites). Incubation of A431 cells for 2 h at 4 degrees C in the presence of EGF resulted in a dramatic increase in the number of EGF receptors associated to the cytoskeleton. These newly cytoskeleton-associated receptors appeared to represent low-affinity binding sites (KD = 7 nM). Dissociation kinetics also revealed an increase of fast-dissociating sites. These results indicate that at 4 degrees C EGF induces the binding of low-affinity, fast-dissociating sites to the cytoskeleton of A431 cells. 相似文献

Rhodamine-labelled epidermal growth factor (Rh-EGF) was shown to bind to A431 cells grown at low density both to a small number of high affinity receptors (KD = 2.8 X 10(-10) M; fraction of total binding sites approximately 0.12) and also to a large number of low affinity receptors (KD = 4 X 10(-9) M; fraction of total binding sites approximately 0.88). Measurements of the lateral diffusion of EGF receptors on the cell surface were made using Rh-EGF and the technique of fluorescence photobleaching recovery. The high affinity receptors (labelled with 1.6 X 10(-10) M Rh-EGF, 5% of EGF binding sites occupied) did not show lateral mobility over the temperature range 3 degrees-37 degrees C. The low affinity receptors (labelled with 2.4 X 10(-7) M Rh-EGF, 90% of EGF sites occupied) showed at least 75% fluorescence recovery after photobleaching, and lateral diffusion coefficients of approximately 2 X 10(-10) cm2/s. These results show that the two populations of EGF receptors defined by binding studies differ in their freedom to diffuse laterally. The observation that the high affinity receptors are immobile indicates that lateral diffusion of receptors, at least over a distance of a few hundred nanometres or more, may not be required for the action of low concentrations of EGF. 相似文献

A radioimmunoassay for human epidermal growth factor receptor 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
The development of a radioimmunoassay (RIA) for the human epidermal growth factor receptor solubilized with nonionic detergents which employs iodinated epidermal growth factor (125I-EGF) as the specific ligand is described. A monoclonal antibody (R1) that binds specifically to human EGF receptors [Waterfield, M. D., et al. (1982) J. Cell Biochem. 20, 149-161] was used to separate solubilized receptors saturated with 125I-EGF from free ligand by absorption to protein A-Sepharose, and the bound radioactivity was determined. The RIA was linear when increasing amounts of solubilized membrane protein were added and, when compared to the standard polyethylene glycol assay, was more reproducible. In addition, the background nonspecific binding obtained in the presence of a hundred-fold excess of unlabeled EGF was less in the RIA. Substitution of normal mouse serum for the monoclonal antibody gave very low nonspecific background ligand binding and avoided the use of large amounts of unlabeled EGF in the assay. Two major classes of binding sites for EGF were observed in membrane preparations from the cervical carcinoma cell line A431 or from normal human placental tissue. These were present in approximately equal amounts, with apparent dissociation constants of 4 X 10(-10) and 4 X 10(-9) M. Upon solubilization with the nonionic detergent Triton X-100, only one class of EGF binding sites was detected in both cases, with a dissociation constant of 3 X 10(-8) M. The RIA can be used to monitor receptor purification and for quantitation of receptor number and affinity in various cell types. 相似文献

For some hormone receptors, the early events of signal transduction depend on their molecular arrangement and interactions at the cell surface. An understanding of the mechanism of signal transduction in general needs a careful analysis of the receptor distribution. Here, we present the first quantitative measurement of epidermal growth factor receptor distribution on A431 cells obtained by scanning fluorescence correlation spectroscopy. Prior to epidermal growth factor binding, the A431 cell membrane presents an average surface density of 7.7-8.4 microclusters/microns 2, each containing an average of 130 receptors. 相似文献

The identification and partial characterization of the fibroblast growth factor receptor of baby hamster kidney cells 总被引:39,自引:0,他引:39
The binding of biologically active, 125I-labeled basic fibroblast growth factor (FGF) to baby hamster kidney-derived cell line cells (BHK-21) was studied at 4 degrees C. Unlabeled FGF displaced cell surface bound 125I-FGF, but platelet-derived growth factor, epidermal growth factor, insulin, or transferrin did not. Binding was saturable both as a function of time and as a function of increasing 125I-FGF concentrations. Scatchard analysis of the binding data revealed the presence of about 1.2 X 10(5) binding sites/cell with an apparent KD of 270 pM. The number of the binding sites was down-regulated following preincubation of the cells with FGF. The density of binding sites/cell also decreased as an inverse function of cell density. When 125I-FGF binding was studied in a BHK-21 cell membrane preparation, it was found that the membranal binding site displayed a lower KD of 21 pM. 125I-FGF was covalently cross-linked to its cell surface receptor on intact BHK-21 cells using the homobifunctional agent disuccinimidyl suberate. Two macromolecular species with an apparent molecular weight of 145,000 and 125,000, respectively, were labeled under both reducing and nonreducing conditions. Unlabeled FGF competed with 125I-FGF for binding to both macromolecular species. The labeling of the macromolecules was also inhibited by heparin. No labeling was observed in the absence of the cross-linkers or when heat-inactivated 125I-FGF was used instead of radiolabeled, biologically active FGF. 相似文献

Rat Brain S100b Protein: Purification, Characterization, and Ion Binding Properties. A Comparison with Bovine S100b Protein 总被引:3,自引:2,他引:1
We purified to homogeneity rat brain S100b protein, which constitutes about 90% of the soluble S100 protein fraction. Purified rat S100b protein comigrates with bovine S100b protein in nondenaturant system electrophoresis but differs in its amino acid composition and in its electrophoretic mobility in urea-sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel with bovine S100b protein. The properties of the Ca2+ and Zn2+ binding sites on rat S100b protein were investigated by flow dialysis and by fluorometric titration, and the conformation of rat S100b in its metal-free form as well as in the presence of Ca2+ or Zn2+ was studied. The results were compared with those obtained for the bovine S100b protein. In the absence of KCl, rat brain S100b protein is characterized by two high-affinity Ca2+ binding sites with a KD of 2 X 10(-5) M and four lower affinity sites with KD about 10(-4) M. The calcium binding properties of rat S100b protein differ from bovine S100b only by the number of low-affinity calcium binding sites whereas similar Ca2+-induced conformational changes were observed for both proteins. In the presence of 120 mM KCl rat brain S100b protein bound two Zn2+-ions/mol of protein with a KD of 10(-7) M and four other with lower affinity (KD approximately equal to 10(-6) M). The occupancy of the two high-affinity Zn2+ binding sites was responsible for most of the Zn2+-induced conformational changes in the rat S100b protein. No increase in the tyrosine fluorescence quantum yield after Zn2+ binding to rat S100b was observed.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

The interaction of the purified C1q component of human C with synchronized, quiescent human gingival fibroblasts was investigated, and the presence of a specific binding site was demonstrated. Quantitative binding studies with radioiodinated C1q showed that binding was specific, saturable, and reversible upon addition of unlabeled C1q or by increasing the salt concentration. Scatchard plot analysis of the data yielded an affinity constant of 2 X 10(7) M-1 for all cell strains examined. The capacity for C1q binding varied among the eight cell strains examined. The number of binding sites per cell ranged from 2.6 to 17.7 X 10(6) with an average of 8.4 X 10(6). The receptor was insensitive to trypsin digestion, and it bound the collagen-like portion of the C1q molecule. Specific immunofluorescence staining showed that virtually all the viable cultured fibroblasts were able to bind added C1q. Flow cytometric analysis demonstrated a spectrum of fluorescence intensity among the cell strains, and there was a positive correlation between fluorescence intensity and the number of binding sites detected by using radiolabeled C1q. 相似文献

The binding of Ricinus communis (castor-bean) agglutinin 1 to saccharides was studied by equilibrium dialysis and fluorescence polarization by using the fluorescently labelled sugar 4-methylumbelliferyl beta-D-galactopyranoside. No appreciable change in ligand fluorescence of 4-methylumbelliferyl beta-D-galactopyranoside was considerably polarized on its binding to the lectin. The association constants obtained by Scatchard analysis of equilibrium-dialysis and fluorescence-polarization data do not differ much from each other, and at 25 degrees C, Ka = 2.4 (+/- 0.2) X 10(4)M-1. These values agree reasonably well with that reported in the literature for Ricinus agglutinin 1. The number of binding sites obtained by the different experimental procedures is 1.94 +/- 0.1 per molecule of 120 000 daltons and is equal to the reported value of 2. The consistency in the values of Ka and number of binding sites indicate the absence of additional subsites on Ricinus agglutinin 1 for its specific sugars. In addition, the excellent agreement between the binding parameters obtained by equilibrium dialysis and fluorescence polarization indicate the potential of ligand-fluorescence-polarization measurements in the investigation of lectin-sugar interactions. 相似文献

Quantitative indirect immunofluorescence analysis by flow cytometry was used to determine the mean number of antibody binding sites per cell in a small subpopulation of rat brain cells expressing low levels of a cell surface differentiation antigen recognized by monoclonal antibody (Mab) RB13-6 (Kindler-R?hrborn et al.: Differentiation 30:53-60, 1985). For these non-disjunct distributions of fluorescence intensities, the cut-off border between antigen-positive and antigen-negative cells was defined by a statistical test. To eliminate the influence of accidental disturbances leading to incorrect statistical decisions, the curves for antigen-negative cells were fitted according to cell number and shape. The flow cytometer was calibrated with the use of a clonal cell line for which the average number of Mab RB13-6 binding sites per cell had previously been determined by radioimmunoassay and Scatchard-plot analysis. Using this analytical procedure, both the proportion of Mab binding brain cells and the mean number of Mab binding sites per Mab binding cell could be determined as a function of developmental stage. 相似文献

Initiation of the extrinsic pathway of coagulation. Association of factor VIIa with a cell line expressing tissue factor 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
We have examined initial assembly of the extrinsic pathway of blood coagulation on cell surfaces with radiolabeled human factor VIIa and a human fetal lung cell line possessing abundant functional tissue factor activity. Binding of factor VIIa to these cells was observed and was time- and temperature-dependent. Binding of factor VIIa was quantitatively equivalent at 37 and 6 degrees C, although the kinetics of binding differed. The radiolabeled ligand bound by the cell was indistinguishable by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel analysis from the factor VIIa offered. Factor VIIa binding was influenced by calcium ions. The binding appears to involve at least two classes of calcium-dependent binding sites. Optimal binding occurred at 2 mM calcium for both classes of sites, and there was inhibition of binding to the high affinity sites at higher calcium. Association of factor VIIa was specific, saturable, had a Kd of 123 +/- 37 pm, and factor VIIa interacted with about 100,000 binding sites per cell. Once established, specific binding was rapidly reversible. Direct cellular binding of human factor X also was observed and was calcium, time- and temperature-dependent. Factor X binding was specific and saturable with half-maximal binding at 87.6 +/- 27.4 nM to 6.03 +/- 1.03 X 10(6) sites per cell. Specific high affinity binding of factor VIIa correlated with generation of factor Xa. A direct linear relationship was observed at low factor VIIa binding; however, at higher bound factor VIIa, the relationship was nonstoichiometric, i.e. less factor Xa was formed per mole of factor VIIa. Expression of specific binding sites for factors VIIa and X provides further substantiation for the molecular assembly hypothesized to initiate the extrinsic coagulation protease cascade on cells. 相似文献

Oxytocin initiates its insulin-like action in adipocytes through oxytocin-specific receptors. We have studied binding and structural properties of these receptors with the radioligand [3H]oxytocin. Steady-state binding was reached after 45 min, at 21 degrees C, and 10 min at 37 degrees C. Scatchard analyses of equilibrium binding data indicated a single class of oxytocin binding sites at 21 degrees C (KD = 3.3 nM, RT = 6 X 10(4) sites/cell) and 2 binding sites at 37 degrees C (KD = 1.5 nM, RT = 6 X 10(4) sites/cell; and KD = 20 nM, RT = 30 X 10(4) sites/cell). Insulin, insulin-like growth factor I, and epidermal growth factor increased oxytocin binding (approximately 20-40%), whereas adenosine, a regulator of oxytocin action, did not affect oxytocin binding. Binding activity of oxytocin was impaired by pretreatment of the hormone or adipocytes with dithiothreitol. Dithiothreitol treatment of adipocytes preferentially inactivated high-affinity binding sites. N-ethyl maleimide inhibited oxytocin binding in adipocytes more than dithiothreitol. In contrast to the inhibitory effects of dithiothreitol and N-ethyl maleimide, proteases (trypsin, chymotrypsin and papain) were not able to inhibit fat cell binding activity. These results suggested that in isolated adipocytes: there are high-affinity and low-affinity receptors, but the low-affinity receptors are absent at 21 degrees C; the binding of oxytocin can be regulated by insulin, and growth factors; and the oxytocin receptors contain disulfide bridges and free thiols that are essential for the maintenance of oxytocin binding. 相似文献

Binding, internalization, and degradation of basic fibroblast growth factor in human microvascular endothelial cells 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

The binding, internalization, and degradation of basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) in human omental microvascular endothelial cells (HOME cells) were investigated. Binding studies of bFGF in human endothelial cells have not yet been reported. Basic FGF bound to HOME cells (KD of 42.0 +/- 3.8 pM and 70,526 +/- 6121 binding sites/cell for the high-affinity sites, KD of 0.933 +/- 0.27 nM and 630,252 +/- 172,459 sites/cell for low-affinity binding sites). The number of low-affinity binding sites was found to be variable. Washing the cells with 2 M phosphate-buffered saline removed completely 125I-bFGF bound to low-affinity binding sites but decreased also the high-affinity binding. The majority of the surface-bound 125I-bFGF was removed by washing the cells with acetic acid buffer at pH 3. At 37 degrees C, 30% of the cell-associated 125I-bFGF became resistant to the acidic wash after 90 min, suggesting that this fraction of bound 125I-bFGF was internalized. At this temperature, degradation of the internalized ligand was followed after 1 h by the appearance of three major bands of 15,000, 10,000, and 8,000 Da and was inhibited by chloroquine. These results demonstrated two classes of binding sites for bFGF in HOME cells; the number of high-affinity binding sites being larger than the number reported for bovine capillary endothelial cells. The intracellular processing of bFGF in HOME cells seems to be different from that of heparin binding growth factor-1 in murine lung capillary endothelial cells and of eye-derived growth factor-1 in Chinese hamster fibroblasts. 相似文献

Expression of the common acute lymphoblastic leukemia antigen (CALLA) on the surface of individual cells of human lymphoblastoid lines 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Expression of the common acute lymphoblastic leukemia antigen (CALLA) on the surface of individual cells of the human lymphoblastoid lines CW678, Namalwa, and Nalm-6, and the distribution of the antigen epitopes within the cell populations have been determined quantitatively with the murine monoclonal anti-CALLA antibody J5. The distribution of CALLA epitopes in the cell populations was analyzed by indirect immunofluorescence measured by using flow cytometry. The average number of CALLA epitopes per cell were measured by two assays: in a direct assay by binding 125I-labeled antibody J5 to cells, and indirectly by binding 125I-labeled protein A from Staphylococcus aureus to J5-coated cells. On average, CW678, Namalwa, and Nalm-6 cells bore about 1 X 10(4), 6 X 10(4), and 8 X 10(4) CALLA epitopes per cell respectively. Histograms of the absolute number of CALLA epitopes expressed by individual cells in the populations of CW678, Namalwa, and Nalm-6 cultures were generated by a combined analysis of all the binding data. This is the first example of histograms showing quantitative distribution of antigen epitopes. Previously, the expression of antigens by individual cells as obtained by flow cytometry was only presented in terms of relative fluorescence intensity of individual cells in cell populations. 相似文献

Binding of fluorescein-conjugated epidermal growth factor (EGF) to individual A431 cells at 4 degrees C is measured by a quantitative fluorescence imaging technique. After background fluorescence and cell autofluorescence photobleaching corrections, the kinetic data are fit to simple models of one monovalent site and two independent monovalent sites, both of which include a first-order dye photobleaching process. Model simulations and the results from data analysis indicate that the one-monovalent-site model does not describe EGF binding kinetics at the single-cell level, whereas the two-site model is consistent with, but not proved by, the single-cell binding data. In addition, the kinetics of binding of fluorescein-EGF to different cells from the same coverslip often differ significantly from each other, indicating cell-to-cell variations in the binding properties of the EGF receptor. 相似文献

Appearance of basic fibroblast growth factor receptors upon differentiation of rat mammary epithelial to myoepithelial-like cells in culture 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
The binding of [125I]-epidermal growth factor (EGF) and [125I]-basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) to a number of single-cell cloned rat mammary cell lines was measured using a saturation assay. Similar numbers of high-affinity [125I]-EGF binding sites (KD 1.3 nM) were found in epithelial and myoepithelial-like cell lines. In contrast, high-affinity (KD 35-276 pM) [125I]-bFGF binding sites were present on fibroblastic and myoepithelial-like cell lines but were not detectable on epithelial cell lines. A series of cell lines representing stages in the differentiation pathway of epithelial cells to an elongated myoepithelial-like morphology showed a graded increase in the number of bFGF receptors. The sensitivity of a cell line to stimulation of DNA synthesis by bFGF correlated with the level of expression of bFGF receptors on the cellular surface. Complexes of cell surface receptors affinity-cross-linked to [125I]-bFGF were analysed by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). In each case two distinct complexes having apparent molecular weights of 180 kDa and 160 kDa were observed. 相似文献

AbstractA common assumption invoked in the analysis of competition binding assays is that the fractional saturation of sites with the unlabeled ligand is given by 1 - (the concentration of bound labeled ligand in the presence of unlabeled ligand)/(the concentration of bound labeled ligand in the absence of unlabeled ligand). This assumption is critically evaluated in the context of several binding models: (a) binding of univalent ligands to multiple classes of equivalent and independent sites, with and without nonspecific binding; (b) cooperative binding of univalent ligands; and (c) binding of multivalent ligands to a single class of univalent acceptors. We show that the conventional assumption is only valid when the labeled ligand is mainly in the free form, occupies a small fraction of the total sites and binds univalently to all sites in an equivalent and independent manner, and when the unlabeled ligand forms l : l complexes with the acceptor sites. When these conditions are satisfied, the conventional assumption is valid even if the unlabeled ligand binds to nonequivalent sites or exhibits cooperativity. Finally, we apply the theory derived for case (a) above to the binding of fluoresceinated epidermal growth factor to A431 cells and demonstrate that the analysis of data obtained from both conventional and competition assays provides information which is difficult, if not impossible, to obtain from either assay alone. 相似文献

Adhesion of Pseudomonas aeruginosa to human buccal epithelial cells: evidence for two classes of receptors 总被引:17,自引:0,他引:17
The adhesion of Pseudomonas aeruginosa strain 492c to trypsinized and untrypsinized buccal epithelial cells (BECs) was studied. Kinetic analysis of the adhesion data, employing a Langmuir absorption isotherm, indicated the presence of two classes of binding sites on untrypsinized BECs: a high affinity - low copy number site (apparent association constant (Ka) approximately equal to 1.57 X 10(-8) mL/cell with ca. 29 binding sites/cell) and a low affinity - high copy number class of binding sites (Ka approximately equal to 4.78 X 10(-10) mL/cell with ca. 264 binding sites/cell). The low affinity - high copy number class of sites was found to be trypsin sensitive. A single class of binding sites was found on trypsinized BECs exhibiting a high affinity - low copy number (Ka approximately equal to 3.70 X 10(-7) mL/cell with ca. 31 binding sites/cell). Positive cooperativity in binding of P. aeruginosa strain 492c to the low affinity - high copy number class site on untrypsinized BECs was demonstrated by analysis of Hill plots of the adhesion data. Sugar inhibition data using a preincubation methodology showed an inhibition of adhesion to trypsinized BECs in the presence of N-acetylneuraminic acid and D-arabinose, while these same two sugars enhanced adhesion to untrypsinized BECs. D-Galactose and N-acetylglucosamine enhanced adhesion to both types of BECs though the latter did to different extents. D-Fucose only inhibited adhesion to untrypsinized BECs.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Scatchard analysis of binding of 125I-basic fibroblast growth factor (FGF) to baby hamster kidney (BHK) cells revealed the presence of two binding sites: a high affinity site with KD of 20 pM and 80,000 sites per cell and a low affinity site with KD of about 2 nM and 600,000 sites per cell. The binding to the two sites could be separated by first washing the cells with 2 M NaCl at pH 7.5 which released the low affinity binding and then extracting the cells with 0.5% Triton X-100 to recover the 125I-basic FGF bound to high affinity sites. The binding to the high affinity site was acid sensitive, suggesting that it represented binding to the receptor. Binding to the low affinity site could be competed strongly by heparin and less strongly by heparan sulfate but not by chondroitin sulfate, dermatan sulfate, or keratan sulfate. Treatment of BHK cells with heparinase abolished 62% of the low affinity binding, suggesting that the low affinity binding represented binding to cell-associated, heparin-like molecules. A variety of other cell types, including bovine capillary endothelial (BCE) cells, also demonstrated both low and high affinity binding sites. To test whether the low affinity binding might play a role in the basic FGF stimulation of plasminogen activator (PA) production by BCE cells, heparin was added to BCE cultures at concentrations which totally blocked binding of 125I-basic FGF to the low affinity sites. Addition of the heparin did not diminish the increased PA production induced by basic FGF. This suggests that the low affinity binding has no direct role in the stimulation of PA production in BCE cells. 相似文献

The binding of ANS to apolactate dehydrogenase (apo-LDH) is accompanied by a 300-fold increase in dye fluorescence with a shift of the emission maximum from 515 to 479 nm, as well as by quenching of intrinsic protein fluorescence. A tetrameric LDH molecule has 6.4 +/- 1.6 non-interacting dye-binding sites with an association constant equal to (4.3 +/- 1.6) X 10(3) M-1. NAD+ added at saturating concentrations does not alter the number of ANS binding sites or the association constant value. The formation of binary LDH.NAD+, LDH.NADH, LDH.AMP and LDH.pyruvate complexes causes the quenching of fluorescence of the enzyme-bound ANS. The extent of quenching observed at ligand saturating concentrations differs for each ligand. Pyruvate added to the binary LDH.AMP complex exerts no effect on the fluorescence of protein-bound ANS; this indicates that the binding of AMP causes some alterations in the microenvironment of the substrate-binding site. Nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) can act as a coenzyme in the LDH-catalyzed reaction. AMP added together with NMN displays an inhibitory effect. The cationic (auramine O) and anionic (ANS) fluorescent probes bound to LDH exhibit different responses to conformational changes accompanying the transition from the apoenzyme to the LDH X NAD-pyruvate complex. 相似文献

A 208-amino-acid amino-terminal fragment of the 4070A amphotropic murine leukemia virus envelope glycoprotein contains all of the determinants required to recognize cell surface amphotropic receptors. This fragment was fused with a streptavidin-binding tag, expressed in Sf9 insect cells by using a baculovirus vector, and purified to homogeneity. The (125)I-labeled purified fragment (AS208) specifically bound various cell lines susceptible to amphotropic murine leukemia virus infection. The number of AS208-binding sites was in the range of 7 X 10(4) to 17 X 10(4) per cell. Quantitative analysis of binding revealed that AS208-binding sites are heterogeneous with regard to ligand binding affinity or that cooperativity exists between receptors. Competition experiments showed that the concentration of AS208 required to inhibit virus entry was lower than that required to inhibit the binding of virus particles at the cell surface. Taken together, these data suggested that amphotropic envelope-binding sites present at the cell surface do not act independently and do not participate equally in virus infection. 相似文献
