Abstract
In HeLa and HepG2 cells the Golgi complex enzyme galactosyltransferase became phosphorylated following incubation with 32Pi-Analysis on sodium dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis revealed incorporation of 32P into the mature 54-kDa form. This phosphorylation was independent of protein synthesis. Serine was identified as the sole phosphorylated amino acid; no radioactive phosphate was detected on N-linked oligosaccharide. The phosphate-labelled galactosyltransferase has the same turnover as [35S]methionine-labelled polypeptides (t1/2 = 20 h). Soluble enzyme, released by the cells, contained very little phosphate relative to that which remained cell-associated. Charge heterogeneity arising from phosphorylation contributes in part to the heterodispersed appearance of the enzyme on two-dimensional gels, as the degree of radioactive phosphate differs among the different iso-enzymes.

Abstract
Growing human choriocarcinoma BeWo b24 cells contain 1.5 X 10(6) functional cell surface transferrin binding sites and 2.0 X 10(6) intracellular binding sites. These cells rapidly accumulate iron at a rate of 360,000 iron atoms/min/cell. During iron uptake the transferrin and its receptor recycle at least each 19 min. The accumulated iron is released from the BeWo cells at a considerable rate. The time required to release 50% of previously accumulated iron into the extracellular medium is 30 h. This release process is cell line-specific as HeLa cells release very little if any iron. The release of iron by BeWo cells is stimulated by exogenous chelators such as apotransferrin, diethylenetriaminepenta-acetic acid, desferral, and apolactoferrin. The time required to release 50% of the previously accumulated iron into medium supplemented with chelator is 15 h. In the absence of added chelators iron is released as a low molecular weight complex, whereas in the presence of chelator the iron is found complexed to the chelator. Uptake of iron is inhibited by 250 microM primaquine or 2.5 microM monensin. However, the release of iron is not inhibited by these drugs. Intracellular iron is stored bound to ferritin. A model for the release of iron by BeWo cells and its implication for transplacental iron transport is discussed.

Abstract
The receptor for asialoglycoproteins (ASGPR) was localized in human hepatoma Hep G2 cells by means of quantitative immunoelectron microscopy. Without ligand added to the culture medium, we found 34% of the total cellular receptors on the plasma membrane, 37% in compartment of uncoupling receptor and ligand (CURL), and 21% in a trans-Golgi reticulum (TGR) that was defined by the presence of albumin after immuno-double labeling. A small percent of the ASGPR was associated with coated pits, the Golgi stacks, and lysosomes. After incubation of the cells with saturating concentrations of the ligand asialo-orosomucoid (ASOR), the number of cell surface receptors decreased to 20% of total cellular receptors, whereas the receptor content of CURL increased by a corresponding amount to 50%. The ASGPR content of TGR remained constant. In contrast, after treatment of the cells with 300 microM of the weak base primaquine (PMQ), cell surface ASGPR had decreased dramatically to only 4% of total cellular receptors whereas label in the TGR had increased to 42%. ASGPR labeling of CURL increased only to 47%. The labeling of other organelles remained unchanged. This affect of PMQ was independent of the presence of additional ASOR. Implications for the intracellular pathway of the ASGPR are discussed.

Abstract
After receptor-mediated uptake, asialoglycoproteins are routed to lysosomes, while transferrin is returned to the medium as apotransferrin. This sorting process was analyzed using 3,3'-diaminobenzidine (DAB) cytochemistry, followed by Percoll density gradient cell fractionation. A conjugate of asialoorosomucoid (ASOR) and horseradish peroxidase (HRP) was used as a ligand for the asialoglycoprotein receptor. Cells were incubated at 0 degree C in the presence of both 131I-transferrin and 125I-ASOR/HRP. Endocytosis of prebound 125I-ASOR/HRP and 131I-transferrin was monitored by cell fractionation on Percoll density gradients. Incubation of the cell homogenate in the presence of DAB and H2O2 before cell fractionation gave rise to a density shift of 125I-ASOR/HRP-containing vesicles due to HRP-catalyzed DAB polymerization. An identical change in density for 125I-transferrin and 125I-ASOR/HRP, induced by DAB cytochemistry, is taken as evidence for the concomitant presence of both ligands in the same compartment. At 37 degrees C, sorting of the two ligands occurred with a half-time of approximately 2 min, and was nearly completed within 10 min. The 125I-ASOR/HRP-induced shift of 131I-transferrin was completely dependent on the receptor-mediated uptake of 125I-ASOR/HRP in the same compartment. In the presence of a weak base (0.3 mM primaquine), the recycling of transferrin receptors was blocked. The cell surface transferrin receptor population was decreased within 6 min to 15% of its original size. DAB cytochemistry showed that sorting between endocytosed 131I-transferrin and 125I-ASOR/HRP was also blocked in the presence of primaquine. These results indicate that transferrin and asialoglycoprotein are taken up via the same compartments and that segregation of the transferrin-receptor complex and asialoglycoprotein occurs very efficiently soon after uptake.

Abstract
The present study describes the effect of 16,16-dimethyl prostaglandin E2 (16,16-dmPGE2) on mucus glycoprotein biosynthesis in rat stomach and duodenal glands. After in vivo treatment with 16,16-dmPGE2 (10 micrograms/kg subcutaneously) for 1 h, the incorporation rate of [3H]galactose, [3H]glucosamine, and [3H]serine in the ex vivo vascularly perfused stomach was determined by light microscopic autoradiography. As was previously found by us for the surface mucous cells in the fundus of 16,16-dmPGE2-treated rats, the incorporation of [3H]galactose and [3H]glucosamine (indicative of mucus glycoprotein synthesis) in the isthmus was increased two- to fourfold. Small if any increases were detected in the mucous cells near the base of the glands of the fundus (neck cells), the mucous cells in the antrum and the mucous cells in the duodenal glands. Total protein synthesis as measured by [3H]serine incorporation was not increased in any of these cells. We conclude that 16,16-dmPGE2 has different effects on mucus glycoprotein biosynthesis in various regions of the rat stomach. Increased biosynthesis in the fundus points to a role for mucus in the prostaglandin-induced protection of the gastric mucosa against injury.

Abstract
Glucosidase II is regarded as a resident protein of the endoplasmatic reticulum. The enzyme removes alpha-1-3-linked glucose from high mannose oligosaccharides N-linked to asparagine residues of glycoproteins. Monospecific antibodies raised against the pig kidney enzyme are used to study the metabolism of the enzyme in a rat hepatoma cell line. These antiglucosidase II antibodies specifically immune precipitate glucosidase II as a 100,000-Da species from [35S]methionine-labeled cells. In addition, protein blotting and immune staining of cell extracts from both rat liver and human and rat hepatoma cell lines show identity in apparent Mr (100,000). Glucosidase II synthesized in the presence of tunicamycin is approximately 94,000 Da, indicating the presence of one or more N-linked oligosaccharide chains. Cell-free protein synthesis of rat hepatoma total RNA demonstrates that glucosidase II is synthesized as a slightly higher molecular weight species as compared to the polypeptide synthesized in whole cells in the presence of tunicamycin, indicating that the enzyme has a cleavable signal sequence. Using a pulse-chase protocol, the apparent molecular weight does not change upon longer chase periods. In addition, the 100,000-Da protein remains sensitive to endo-beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase H regardless of prolonged chase periods. The cells incorporate [3H]mannose into the enzyme; after release with endo-beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase H, most of the radioactivity comigrates with Glc1-Man9-GlcNAc on a gel filtration column. Phase separation in Triton X-114 shows a partition between the aqueous and the Triton phase, the major portion being separated in the aqueous phase. In rat hepatoma cells glucosidase II has a half-life of 50 min. This value is not altered if the cells are grown in the presence of monensin nor of methyl-deoxynoijirimycin. However, tunicamycin and low concentrations or primaquine (raising the pH of acidic compartments) causes a 100% increase in half-life of glucosidase II. We conclude that glucosidase II is a hydrophilic, probably not a transmembrane membrane, protein with a short half-life. It is the first example of an oligosaccharide-processing enzyme not being an integral membrane protein.

Abstract
The binding and uptake of rat and human transferrin by isolated rat seminiferous tubules was studied. During the isolation and incubation of the tubules, the blood-testis barrier remained intact. Iron-saturated and iron-free (apo-) transferrin use the same binding sites on the surface of the tubules, but the dissociation constant is about two times higher for apotransferrin than for iron-saturated transferrin. The affinity of the receptors is equal for rat and human transferrin, but human transferrin binds to more surface binding sites (2.6 X 10(10) per 10 cm tubule length) than rat transferrin (1.1 X 10(10) per 10 cm tubule length) at 0 degrees C. At 33 degrees C equal numbers of human and rat transferrin molecules are taken up (about 8 X 10(10)) per 10 cm tubule length. The quantitative difference between 0 degrees C and 33 degrees C is caused by the fact that at 33 degrees C receptor-mediated endocytosis and recycling occur. As a consequence, both surface and intracellular transferrin receptors are detected at 33 degrees C. The dissociation constants are not temperature-dependent.

Abstract
The biosynthesis of the ectoenzyme 5'-nucleotidase in the rat hepatoma cell line H4S has been studied by pulse-labeling with [35S]methionine and subsequent immunoprecipitation of the cell lysate. 5'-Nucleotidase is a membrane glycoprotein with an apparent molecular mass on SDS-gels of 72 kDa. The enzyme is initially synthesized as a 68-kDa precursor which is converted to the mature 72-kDa form in 15-60 min (t1/2 = 25 min). The molecular mass of the unglycosylated enzyme is approximately 58 kDa. Culturing the cells in the presence of varying concentrations of tunicamycin, an inhibitor of N-glycosylation, revealed six species of 5'-nucleotidase after sodium dodecyl sulfate/polyacrylamide electrophoresis. This indicates the presence of five N-linked oligosaccharide chains accounting for the difference between the 58-kDa polypeptide backbone and the 68-kDa species. The 68-kDa precursor is susceptible to cleavage by endo-beta-N-acetylglycosaminidase H; the 72-kDa mature protein is converted to several bands upon this treatment. This result indicates that part of 5'-nucleotidase keeps one or two high-mannose or hybrid chains in the mature form, even after prolonged pulse-chase labeling. The newly synthesized mature enzyme reaches the cell surface after 20-30 min. The half-life of 5'-nucleotidase is about 30 h in H4S cells. No immunoprecipitable 5'-nucleosidase is released into the culture medium.

Abstract
For the study of the biosynthesis, processing and secretion of mucus glycoproteins in rat gastric mucous cells, antibodies were raised against purified gastric mucus glycoproteins and against deglycosylated gastric mucus glycoproteins. Indirect immunofluorescence analysis of gastric mucosa sections revealed that both antibodies specifically labelled the mucus glycoprotein-synthesizing cells in the gastric mucosa. Stomach segments were pulse-labelled with [35S]cysteine and chased for various times. The radioactively labelled (glyco)proteins were quantitatively immunoprecipitated and analyzed by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Less than 3% of the total radioactivity incorporated in protein was found to be present in mucus glycoproteins. Antibodies raised against native mucus glycoproteins recognized only high-molecular-weight mucus glycoproteins, while the antibodies against deglycosylated glycoproteins also bound to probable precursor forms. The synthesis of mature mucus glycoproteins (Mr greater than 300 000) required about 90 min. After 3 h of chase, only a small portion of the pulse-labelled mucus glycoproteins had been secreted; the majority of the radioactive glycoproteins at that time was still associated with the tissue. Immature (glyco)proteins were not secreted into the medium.

Abstract
Galactosyltransferase (GT) belongs to the glycosyltransferases. In several tissues and cell lines, the enzyme is localized by immunocytochemistry to the two to three trans cisternae of the Golgi complex and may thus be considered a specific membrane component of this type of endomembrane. As a consequence, it is the most common Golgi "marker" enzyme in cell fractionation studies. Study of its biosynthesis, membrane orientation, and turnover in several tissues and cultured cell lines has broadened our knowledge about Golgi function itself. The enzyme is oriented towards the lumen of the cisternal space. In this orientation, it catalyzes the transfer of galactose to glycoprotein-bound acetylglucosamine and, in the presence of alpha-lactalbumin, to glucose, as shown in the Golgi complex of mammary gland epithelial cells. The enzymatic properties of GT are well known. The metabolism of GT has been extensively studied in HeLa and human hepatoma cells. The enzyme is synthesized in the rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER) and provided with one N-linked oligosaccharide and palmitate residues. In the Golgi complex, terminal sugars are attached to the N-linked oligosaccharide and extensive O-glycosylation takes place. The half-life of the enzyme is about 20 hr, after which a soluble form appears in the culture medium. Release of GT into the medium is observed in all cell lines studied. This phenomenon is in accordance with the presence of soluble GT in body fluids such as serum, ascites, milk, and saliva. In patients suffering from ovarian and breast cancer, increased levels of GT enzyme activity have been reported. Whether extracellular GT is of biological significance is still a point of discussion.

Abstract
In rat hepatocytes the Golgi complex contains a considerable amount of receptors for asialoglycoproteins (ASGP-R). To establish whether the presence of ASGP-R in the Golgi complex originate from de novo synthesis isolated rat hepatocytes were incubated with 100 micrograms/ml cycloheximide to stop protein synthesis. Provided that protein synthesis was completely inhibited by cycloheximide, uptake and degradation of ligand (asialo-orosomucoid) were unaffected. Also intracellular transport of newly synthesized proteins, as determined by monitoring biosynthesis and intracellular transport of albumin and ASGP-R, was not affected. After culturing the cells for 3.5 h in the presence of cycloheximide, no more albumin could be detected in the Golgi complex with immunofluorescence microscopy. However, immunocytochemical assessment showed that the ASGP-R was still in the Golgi complex. These results suggest that the Golgi complex contains a pool of ASGP-R which is independent of neosynthesis for several hours.

Abstract
Immunogold double-labeling and ultrathin cryosections were used to compare the subcellular distribution of albumin, mannose 6-phosphate receptor (MPR), galactosyltransferase, and the lysosomal enzymes cathepsin D, beta-hexosaminidase, and alpha-glucosidase in Hep G2 cells. MPR and lysosomal enzymes were found throughout the stack of Golgi cisternae and in a trans-Golgi reticulum (TGR) of smooth-surfaced tubules with coated buds and vesicles. The trans-Golgi orientation of TGR was ascertained by the co-localization with galactosyltransferase. MPR was particularly abundant in TGR and CURL, the compartment of uncoupling receptors and ligands. Both TGR and CURL also contained lysosomal enzymes, but endogenous albumin was detected in TGR only. The coated buds on TGR tubules contained MPR, lysosomal enzymes, as well as albumin. MPR and lysosomal enzymes were also found in coated pits of the plasma membrane. CURL tubules seemed to give rise to smooth vesicles, often of the multivesicular body type. In CURL, the enzymes were found in the lumina of the smooth vesicles while MPR prevailed in the tubules. These observations suggest a role of CURL in transport of lysosomal enzymes to lysosomes. When the cells were treated with the lysosomotropic amine primaquine, binding of anti-MPR to the cells in culture was reduced by half. Immunocytochemistry showed that MPR accumulated in TGR, especially in coated buds. Since these buds contain endogenous albumin and lysosomal enzymes also, these data suggest that coated vesicles originating from TGR provide for a secretory route in Hep G2 cells and that this pathway is followed by the MPR system as well.

Abstract
The major glycoprotein of pancreatic zymogen granule membranes (GP-2) was detected in the medium of acinar cell suspensions from rat pancreas. Its release from the cells was studied in pulse-chase metabolic labeling experiments with radioactive methionine. GP-2 (apparent Mr = 80 000) was found to be processed to a form of slightly lower apparent Mr (75 000) after about 4 h chase. At about the same time this smaller form of GP-2 appeared in the medium. These results are in accordance with earlier findings in vivo. At different chase times acinar cells were extracted with Triton X-114 to separate water-soluble proteins from membrane-associated (hydrophobic) proteins. This experiment showed that GP-2 is slowly converted from a membrane-bound glycoprotein to a soluble glycoprotein after its reduction in apparent molecular mass, causing its detachment from the membrane. Further analysis indicated that the detachment process may occur at the zymogen granule membrane as well as the plasma membrane. Immunocytochemistry on ultrathin cryosections of pancreatic tissue showed that GP-2 is localized on zymogen granule membranes, plasma membranes and in the acinar lumen. Although in much smaller quantities, GP-2 is also present in the granule content. Thus, in summary, GP-2 is synthesized as a true membrane glycoprotein which is gradually processed to a soluble species and is found in the secretion.

Abstract
We studied the intracellular transport of secretory and membrane proteins in the human hepatoma cell line HepG-2 infected with vesicular stomatitis virus. Cells were pulse-labeled in the presence of [35S]methionine and chased in the presence of the lysosomotropic agent primaquine. At a concentration of 0.3 mM primaquine effectively inhibited the secretion of albumin and, to a lesser extent, that of orosomucoid and transferrin. The drug also prevented the budding of virus particles at the cell surface. The intracellular transport to the Golgi complex of the membrane protein VSV-G was not affected by primaquine as it acquires resistance to endo-beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase H at the same rate as in control cells. Addition of primaquine at various times after the initiation of the chase period indicates that the effect of primaquine occurs just before secretion. In confirmation of the biochemical data, immunocytochemical localization of albumin in cells treated with NH4Cl demonstrated that albumin accumulated in vesicles at the trans side of the Golgi complex. The effect of primaquine on secretion was also compared with its effect on receptor recycling. The dose-response characteristics of the effect of primaquine on receptor recycling are identical to those of the effects on protein secretion and virus budding. These results indicate that both processes involve the same transport mechanism, and/or that they occur via at least one identical intracellular compartment.

Abstract
Using protein A-colloidal gold immunoelectron microscopy and monospecific antibodies to the weak base primaquine, we have delineated acidic intracellular compartments in the human hepatoma cell line, HepG2. Primaquine specifically accumulated within endocytotic compartments (including CURL vesicles, multivesicular bodies and lysosomes). In addition, the Golgi cisternae were positive. However, the CURL tubules, which contain recycling asialoglycoprotein receptor, did not accumulate primaquine. Thus, there may be a gradient of acidification within the endocytotic pathway.

Abstract
The effect of monensin on the metabolism and glycosylation of the trans-Golgi enzyme galactosyltransferase (GT) was studied in HeLa cells. The synthesis of GT was not affected by monensin; however, in the presence of the drug GT precursor molecules (Mr 54 000 and 47 000) were transported to the Golgi system at a slower rate than in control cells. the half-life of GT as an intrinsic membrane protein of the trans-Golgi system was prolonged in the presence of monensin. Mature GT (Mr 54 000) contained in addition to one N-linked oligosaccharide several O-linked oligosaccharides; the majority of them consisted of the disaccharide galactose-N-acetylgalactosamine containing one or two sialic acid residues. We conclude that GT resides at an intracellular location where significant sialylation occurs. The sialylation of O-linked oligosaccharides was not hampered by the presence of monensin. Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis combined with neuraminidase treatment revealed that GT consists of a number of species in a pI range between 4 and 7. Removal of sialic acid residues resulted in a less acidic pI range of GT but the charge heterogeneity persisted. Immunoelectron microscopy with antibodies against GT showed that monensin affects primarily the GT-containing cisternae.

Substantial information about the ASGP-R has accumulated in the 10 years following the initial studies of this receptor by Ashwell and Morell. Many of its biochemical properties, its structure, and its orientation within the plasma membrane are now known. The pathways of ASGP ligand and receptor, with the CURL organelle being a central component, are summarized in Fig. 18. The major pathway of the ligand through the cell, beginning with binding at the cell surface and ending with degradation in lysosomes, has been investigated in detail. Recently, alternate routes of the ligand such as the ligand recycling pathway have been observed. With regard to the itinerary of the receptor, there is now biochemical, kinetic, and morphological evidence to support receptor recycling. The new concept of CURL as an important intracellular organelle has originated from studies of ASGP-R recycling. Its importance in the dissociation and segregation of ligand and receptor as well as in receptor recycling is now evident. In addition, there has been a concurrent investigation of other receptor systems that participate in receptor-mediated endocytosis, providing parallels and contrasts to the ASGP-R of hepatocytes. Many critical issues still exist in the cell biology of the ASGP-R. What are the structural requirements of the receptor for ligand binding and subsequent endocytosis of the receptor-ligand complex? Very little is known about the interactions between the receptor and the lipid bilayer in which it resides. How does the receptor move laterally in the plasma membrane? Are there proteins or glycolipids closely associated with the ASGP-R and, if so, what is their function? What is the mechanism that causes receptor clustering into coated pits? Although the existence of a pathway for ligand recycling has been demonstrated, there are still many issues to be addressed. What signals a particular ligand molecule for recycling? Is it a stochastic process? What is the function of this route of ligand movement? How are the various ligand pathways coordinated and regulated? In addition, there are many unanswered questions regarding the receptor pathway. How does CURL mediate the sorting of ASGP-R from ligand? How are receptors with different destinations (e.g., ASGP-R and IgA receptor) sorted in CURL? What is the mechanism of ASGP-R degradation and how is it regulated? Finally, how does the Golgi function in the ASGP system and what is the relationship between the Golgi and CURL? Future investigation of these issues will require further observations with existing techniques as well as new approaches.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

Abstract
Following in vivo administration of cycloheximide (20 mg/kg body weight i.p.) protein synthesis was completely inhibited (99%) in rat liver. No newly synthesized asialoglycoprotein receptor (ASGP-R) could be detected by metabolic labeling. Fluorescence immunocytochemistry of several secretory proteins and plasma membrane proteins, including the receptors for polymeric IgA (IgA-R), demonstrated a rapid loss from the Golgi complex following cycloheximide administration. On the other hand, two membrane proteins, the receptors for ASGP-R and mannose 6-phosphate (MP-R), were not altered in their cellular localization including the Golgi. Using quantitative immunoelectron microscopy with colloidal gold, we found that 2 h and 4 h after cycloheximide administration, the densities of ASGP-R and MP-R in the membranes of the Golgi complex were unaltered compared with control liver. Similarly, there was no significant effect of cycloheximide on the receptor labeling in coated vesicles and compartment of uncoupling receptors and ligands (CURL). These observations are consistent with an involvement of the Golgi and CURL pools of the receptors in intracellular trafficking, endocytosis and receptor recycling.

Abstract
The intracellular transport and destination of the major glycoprotein associated with zymogen granule membranes in the pancreas (GP-2) was established. In suspensions of isolated acinar cells from rat pancreas, pulse-chase experiments were performed. The incorporation of the first newly synthesized GP-2 molecules into zymogen granule membranes occurred at about 60 min after beginning of the pulse. We demonstrated by using two different methods that newly made GP-2 reaches the cell surface within the same time span. After 6-8 h chase considerable more newly synthesized GP-2 has reached the cell surface than would be expected on account of secreted newly synthesized zymogens. These observations strongly suggest that at least part of the GP-2 molecules bypass the mature zymogen granule compartment on their way to the plasma membrane. GP-2 is the only protein that appears in discernable quantity in the plasma membrane during 1-4 h after a pulse label. Nevertheless GP-2 comprises only a small percentage of externally 125I-iodinated plasma membrane proteins. We conclude that GP-2 has a high turnover rate at the plasma membrane level. Treatment of the acinar cells with the N-glycosylation inhibitor tunicamycin does not block the intracellular transport of GP-2.

Abstract
It has been suggested that the cytoprotective effect of prostaglandins could be mediated by an increased mucus glycoprotein secretion in the stomach. In the rat we studied the mucus glycoprotein synthesis after an in vivo treatment with 16,16-dimethyl prostaglandin E2 (10 micrograms/kg X day subcutaneously) for 1 h or 7 days. The incorporation rate of [3H]galactose, [3H]glucosamine, and [3H]serine was determined by light microscopic autoradiography in the ex vivo vascularly perfused stomach. Prostaglandin increased the rate of [3H]galactose and [3H]glucosamine incorporation twofold to fourfold in the fundic surface mucous cells; but the total protein synthesis as measured by [3H]serine incorporation was not increased. Analyses of purified mucus glycoprotein did not show an effect on carbohydrate composition, oligosaccharide chain size, nor on buoyant density, after prostaglandin treatment. The present study reveals that 16,16-dimethyl prostaglandin E2 stimulates the mucus glycoprotein synthesis in the fundic mucous cells. This effect may well be one of the mechanisms by which prostaglandin protects the stomach against noxious agents.

Abstract
An affinity-purified rabbit antibody against rat liver mannose 6-phosphate receptor (MP-R) was prepared. The antibody was directed against a 215 kd-polypeptide and it recognized both ligand-occupied and free receptor. Anti-MP-R was used for immunofluorescence and immunoelectron microscopy of cryosections from rat liver. MP-R was demonstrated in all parenchymal liver cells, but not in endothelial lining cells. MP-R labeling was found at the entire plasma membrane, in coated pits and coated vesicles, in the compartment of uncoupling receptor and ligand, and in the Golgi complex. Lysosomes showed only scarce MP-R label. In double-labeling immunoelectron microscopy, MP-R co-localized with albumin in the Golgi cisternae and in secretory vesicles with lipoprotein particles. Cathepsin D was associated with MP-R in the Golgi cisternae. This finding indicates that MP-R/cathepsin D complexes traverse the Golgi complex on their way to the lysosomes. The possible involvement of CURL in lysosomal enzyme targeting is discussed.

Abstract
Using double-label quantitative immunoelectron microscopy on ultrathin cryosections of rat liver, we have compared the endocytotic pathways of the receptors for asialoglycoprotein (ASGP-R), mannose-6-phosphate ligands (MP-R), and polymeric IgA (IgA-R). All three were found within the Golgi complex, along the entire plasma membrane, in coated pits and vesicles, and within a compartment of uncoupling of receptors and ligand ( CURL ). The receptors occurred randomly at the cell surface, in coated pits and vesicles. Within CURL tubules ASGP-R and MP-R were colocalized , but IgA-R and ASGP-R displayed dramatic microheterogeneity. Thus, in addition to its role in uncoupling and sorting recycling receptor from ligand, CURL serves as a compartment to segregate recycling receptor (e.g. ASGP-R) from receptor involved in transcytosis (e.g. IgA-R).

Abstract
Human hepatoma cells, infected by vesicular stomatitis virus, offer a good system to study simultaneously the intracellular localization of a well defined transmembrane glycoprotein (VSV-G), a secretory glycoprotein (transferrin), and a nonglycosylated secretory protein (albumin). We used monospecific antibodies in combination with 5- and 8-nm colloidal gold particles complexed with protein A to immunolabel these proteins simultaneously in thin frozen sections of hepatoma cells. VSV-G, transferrin, and albumin are present in the same rough endoplasmic reticulum cisternae, the same Golgi compartments, and the same secretory vesicles. In the presence of the ionophore monensin intracellular transport is blocked at the trans cisternae of the Golgi complex, and VSV-G, transferrin, and albumin accumulate in dilated cisternae, which are apparently derived from the trans-Golgi elements. Glycoproteins, synthesized and secreted in the presence of monensin, are less acidic than those in control cultures. This is probably caused by a less efficient contact between the soluble secretory proteins and the membrane-bound glycosyltransferases that are present in the most monensin-affected (trans) Golgi cisternae.

Abstract
The human hepatoma cell line, Hep G2, was used as a model system to delineate the morphological aspects of receptor-mediated endocytosis of asialoglycoproteins (ASGP). These hepatoma cells, which have several structural features in common with liver parenchymal cells, contain a well-differentiated endocytotic apparatus which includes coated vesicles and CURL (compartment of uncoupling receptor and ligand) similar to that found in rat liver cells in vivo (Geuze et al., 1983). In order to precisely identify the route of ligand from the cell surface to the CURL sorting vesicles, Hep G2 cells were allowed to endocytose in synchrony ASGP bound to 12 nm colloidal gold for 5 to 60 min. Thereafter the subcellular distribution of the gold particles was examined in ultrathin cryosections. This study demonstrates that, once internalized, ASGP ligand enters a system of CURL tubules prior to delivery to the lumenal contents of attached endocytotic vesicles. These vesicles then in turn transform into multivesicular bodies and secondary lysosomes. Thus, the tubular portions of CURL provide the entry for ASGP ligand into the sorting compartment.

Abstract
HeLa cell membranes were studied for the distribution and orientation of the Golgi marker enzyme uridine diphosphate-galactose:beta-D-N-acetylglucosamine beta, 1-4 transferase (GT). Short pulse labeling in the presence of [35S]methionine resulted in two precursor species (Mr = 44,000 and 47,000), present in a microsomal fraction with a density of 1.18 g/ml in sucrose, presumably derived from the rough endoplasmic reticulum. Processing of the N-linked oligosaccharide(s) occurred only after the precursor molecules migrated to lighter density fractions, presumably derived from the Golgi complex. The mature GT molecules (Mr = 54,000) contain O-linked oligosaccharides as shown by beta-elimination of metabolically incorporated [3H]galactose. The O-glycosylation occurred mainly in the light density fractions. The topology of GT was studied on membrane fractions after labeling with [35S]methionine as well as immunocytochemically on ultrathin cryosections at the electron microscope level. Our results indicate that both the antigenic determinants of GT as well as polypeptide chain are present intramembraneously and at the luminal side of the membranes of the Golgi complex and rough endoplasmic reticulum.

Abstract
In eukaryotic cells, secretory proteins and glycoproteins migrate from the rough endoplasmic reticulum, their site of synthesis, through Golgi vesicles before being released from the cell. Cellular and viral integral plasma membrane glycoproteins are co-translationally inserted into the rough endoplasmic reticulum membrane and follow a similar pathway to the cell surface. Previous studies using endoglycosidase H (Endo H) suggested that in rat hepatoma cells the vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) G protein, albumin and transferrin migrate from the rough endoplasmic reticulum to the Golgi apparatus at different rates. Here we show directly that in human hepatoma HepG2 cells, five secreted proteins mature from the rough endoplasmic reticulum to Golgi vesicles at characteristic rates which differ at least threefold. The results are incompatible with bulk-phase movement of the luminal contents of the endoplasmic reticulum, and suggest that there is a membrane-bound receptor that selectively mediates the transport of secretory proteins from the rough endoplasmic reticulum to the Golgi.

Abstract
The biosynthesis of GP-2, the major glycoprotein associated with zymogen-granule membranes in the pancreas, was studied in acinar cell suspensions from rat pancreas. Pulse-chase experiments, using [35S]methionine, were performed and the processing of GP-2 was analyzed by immunoprecipitation and sodium dodecyl sulfate/polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. GP-2 is synthesized as a precursor glycoprotein with apparent molecular weight Mr = 73000. Within 60 min after synthesis it is almost completely converted to the mature form (Mr = 78000-80000). Only the precursor form of GP-2 is sensitive to digestion with the glycosidase endo-beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase H, indicating that the observed conversion reflects the processing of 'high-mannose' oligosaccharides into complex type oligosaccharides. Acinar cells cultured in the presence of increasing concentrations of the N-glycosylation inhibitor tunicamycin synthesize 5-6 distinct precursor GP-2 species with apparent molecular weights decreasing from 73000-61000. We conclude that GP-2 contains five or six N-linked carbohydrate chains. From cell fractionation studies it was established that the precursor GP-2 is present in a microsomal fraction with high density (greater than 1.169 g/ml) presumably derived from the rough endoplasmic reticulum; mature GP-2 is localized in low density microsomes (less than 1.130 g/ml) probably Golgi vesicles. The GP-2 in zymogen granule membranes is also in the mature form.

Abstract
In rats infused with asialoglycoprotein for 60 min, receptor-mediated endocytosis of the ligand occurred exclusively in hepatic parenchymal cells. We have used double-label immunoelectron microscopy on ultrathin cryosections of rat liver to identify the site at which the asialoglycoprotein receptor and its ligand dissociate following their common endocytosis. Asialoglycoprotein receptor, ligand and clathrin were identified and quantitated by the use of monospecific antibodies followed by gold-protein A complexes. Both receptor and ligand were found associated with the membrane of clathrin-coated vesicles close to the cell surface. We identified other vesicles that contained ligand accumulated within the lumen. The membranes of these latter vesicles contained little receptor, but receptor was concentrated in tubular extensions that were largely free of ligand. We call this organelle CURL (compartment of uncoupling of receptor and ligand). CURL vesicles appear to transform into secondary lysosomes, wherein the ligand is degraded. The tubular vesicles are, we propose, an intermediate in recycling the receptor to the cell surface.

Abstract
We used high-resolution immunocytochemistry on ultrathin frozen sections labeled with colloidal gold to study the subcellular distribution of the asialoglycoprotein receptor in rat liver. The receptor was localized along the entire hepatocyte plasma membrane, including the bile capillary membrane, but was scarce intracellularly. Sinusoidal lining (Kupffer) cells and blood cells showed no immunoreactivity. In liver cells of rats injected with 1 to 100 micrograms of asialoorosomucoid (ASOR) 2-15 min before tissue fixation, endocytotic internalization of receptors at the blood front was conspicuous. At all times in this interval, receptor was present in approximately 100-nm vesicles and larger vacuoles adjacent to the sinusoidal plasma membrane. No other significant intracellular receptor was noted during the 15-min exposure to ASOR; in particular, lysosomes and Golgi complex were not labeled. Our observations, in combination with data from the literature which demonstrate that, under these conditions, the ligand is transferred further to the Golgi complex-lysosome region, suggest that the receptor and ligand are dissociated in the vicinity of the plasma membrane, after which the receptor rapidly returns to the cell surface.

Abstract
Two galactosyl-transferases have been found in the Golgi-enriched subcellular fractions derived from rat gastric mucosa. One incorporates galactose into ovomucoid at optimal pH 6.8. The reaction can be completely inhibited by acetylglucosamine. The apparent Km for UDPgalactose is 0.024 mM. The other galactosyl-transferase incorporates galactose into desialated ovine submaxillary mucin at optimal pH 7.5 and the transfer cannot be inhibited by acetylglucosamine. The apparent Km for UDPgalactose is 0.191 mM. Both enzymes require Mn2+ and Triton X-100 for optimal galactose incorporation. The enzymes could be separated by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Incorporation into endogenous glycoprotein was studied in conditions optimal for the two galactosyl-transferases: (1) at pH 6.8, using Mes as buffer system, and (2) at pH 7.5, using Tris-HCl in the presence of an inhibitory excess of acetylglucosamine. In both cases, most radioactive galactose is incorporated into macromolecules, which could be identified as epithelial glycoprotein. Endogenous incorporation in the presence of excess acetylglucosamine results in the formation of a substantial amount of a disaccharide (probably galactose-beta-(1-3)acetylgalactosamine), whereas upon incorporation at pH 6.8 almost no disaccharide is formed. Quantitative immunoprecipitation experiments with specific antibodies to the endogenous product, labelled by [3H]galactose in the presence of varying amounts of desialated ovine submaxillary mucin and/or acetylglucosamine, indicated that other galactosyl-transferases are involved in the biosynthesis of epithelial glycoprotein.

Abstract
Mucus glycoproteins from the rat stomach were characterized after their isolation from homogenates of the superficial gastric mucosa by equilibrium centrifugation in CsCl density gradients. Water-soluble as well as water-insoluble glycoproteins were studied. The latter were solubilized by 2-mercaptoethanol reduction of the homogenate. From both homogenate fractions the sames two glycoproteins 1 and 2 were purified, glycoprotein 1 being present in considerably higher amount than glycoprotein 2. Their respective buoyant densities in a CsCl gradient were 1.47--1.50 g/ml and 1.56--1.58 g/ml. The two glycoproteins expressed slight differences in gel electrophoresis and gel filtration. The results from column chromatographic comparisons between reduced and unreduced glycoproteins indicated strongly that both glycoproteins 1 and 2 were built from subunits kept together by S-S bonds. The s20,w values of the reduced glycoproteins 1 and 2 were 15.7 S and 11.6 S. Glycoprotein 1 contained 5% protein, 70% carbohydrate and 1--2% sulphate, whereas these percentages for glycoprotein 2 were 10% protein, 65% carbohydrate and 10% sulphate. The molar proportions of the main sugar components galactose, fucose, glucosamine and galactosamine were 4 :2 : 4 : 1 (glycoprotein 1) and 3 : 2 : 3 : 1 (glycoprotein 2). Blood-group activity A was expressed by glycoprotein 1, whereas glycoprotein 2 showed mainly blood-group activity Leb, some B activity and also some A activity, but to a lesser extent than glycoprotein 1.

Abstract
Epithelial glycoprotein like that produced by the gastric surface consists of a polypeptide chain rich in serine and threonine; to these amino acid residues oligosaccharide chains of variable length are linked. The linking sugar is acetylgalactosamine. To find out whether the initial glycosylation takes place at the ribosomal level. I treated purified peptidyl-tRNA, derived from rat gastric membrane-bound polysomes, with alkali in the presence of boro[3H]hydride. Alkali specifically splits glycosidic bonds between serine or threonine and oligosaccharide side chains (beta-elimination reaction). The linking sugar is converted to an alditol and simultaneously labeled. GalNAc was identified as the linking sugar by paper chromatography. Furthermore, nascent peptides with lengths between 40 and 60 amino acid residues already contained this linking sugar. Gel filtration on Bio-Gel P-2 of 3H-labeled saccharides revealed that nascent chains contained mainly monosaccharides, but some di- or trisaccharides were found with GalNAc as the linkage sugar. These findings demonstrate that initial glycosylation of epithelial glycoprotein occurs at the ribosomal level rather shortly after the nascent peptide chain has reached the cisternal lumen of the endoplasmic reticulum.

Abstract
Frog exocrine pancreatic tissue was studied in vitro under conditions which maintain the differences between tissues from fasted and fed animals. Sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) gel electrophoresis after labeling with [14C]amino acids showed that feeding stimulated the synthesis of secretory proteins to the same relative degree as the overall protein synthesis. The intracellular transport of secretory proteins was studied by electronmicroscopy autoradiography after pulse-labeling with [3H]leucine. It was found that the transport route is similar under both feeding conditions. After their synthesis in the rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER), the proteins move through the peripheral elements and cisternae of the Golgi system into the condensing vacuoles. The velocity of the transport increases considerably after feeding. When frogs are fasted, the release of labeled proteins from the RER takes greater than 90 min, whereas after feeding, this happens within 30 min. Comparable differences were observed for transport through the Golgi system. The apparent differences between the frog and mammalian pancreas in the regulation of synthesis, intracellular transport, and secretion of proteins are discussed.

Abstract
1. Optimal assay conditions were determined for a microsomal glycoprotein galactosyl- and fucosyltransferase derived from gastric epithelial scrapings with both exogenous and endogenous acceptor glycoprotein. 2. Subcellular fractionation of the homogenate yielded microsomal fractions enriched in glycosyltransferases. 3. The effect of feeding on galactosyltransferase activity per cell was examined. 4. Endogenous acceptor molecules were identified as glycoproteins after labeling by means of UDP-[3H]galactose in the cell-free system.
