Abstract
The synthesis of N-acyl-2-amino-2-deoxy-hexoses, their metabolism and their incorporation into glycosphingolipids of rat pheochromocytoma cell line PC 12 were investigated. The data indicate that in PC 12 cells the N-acyl-2-amino-2-deoxy-hexoses, N-propanoyl-D-glucosamine and N-butanoyl-D-glucosamine are metabolized to the corresponding phosphates, and that N-propanoyl-D-glucosamine is also metabolized to N-propanoyl neuraminic acid. Using variously radiolabelled N-acyl-2-amino-2-deoxy-hexoses, their incorporation into glycosphingolipids was shown.

Abstract
The mechanism of the inhibition of phosphatidylcholine biosynthesis by the phospholipid analogue, hexadecylphosphocholine, was investigated in Madin-Darby canine kidney cells. In the presence of 50 mumol/liter hexadecylphosphocholine, there was a translocation of CTP:choline-phosphate cytidylyltransferase (EC 22.7.7.15) activity from the membranes to the cytosol of the cells. Since we recently demonstrated that hexadecylphosphocholine also inhibits protein kinase C in vitro, [methyl-3H]choline labeling experiments were repeated with phorbol ester-desensitized cells. In these cells the same inhibitory effect of hexadecylphosphocholine was measured. As a consequence of inhibition, the [methyl-3H]choline incorporation into the phosphocholine pool was increased time-dependently. In addition, there was no evidence for a difference between the choline uptake of control and hexadecylphosphocholine-treated cells. Likewise, the amount of diacylglycerol, a known activator of the translocation process, was not reduced. Finally, we showed that the inhibitory effect of hexadecylphosphocholine on CTP:choline-phosphate cytidylyltransferase translocation cannot be explained by the detergent properties of this phospholipid analogue. Therefore, we suggest a direct inhibitory effect of hexadecylphosphocholine on the translocation of CTP:choline-phosphate cytidylyltransferase.

Abstract
During the search for inhibitors of N-acetylneuraminic acid biosynthesis, it was shown that 3-O-methyl-N-acetylglucosamine competitively inhibits the N-acetylglucosamine kinase of rat liver in vitro with a Ki value of 17 microM. N-Acetylmannosamine kinase is inhibited non-competitively with a Ki value of 80 microM. In a human hepatoma cell line (HepG2), 3-O-methyl-N-acetyl-D-glucosamine (1 mM) inhibits the incorporation of 14C-N-acetylglucosamine and 14C-N-acetylmannosamine into cellular glycoproteins by 88% and 70%, respectively.

Abstract
During its development the eukaryotic microorganisms Dictyostelium discoideum secretes an alpha-L-fucosidase (EC 3.2.1.51). In cells of the growth phase almost no alpha-L-fucosidase activity is detectable. The activity increases steadily up to the aggregation stage and accumulates also in the extracellular medium. The developmental regulation is mediated by pulsatile cAMP signals. The alpha-L-fucosidase was purified from extracellular medium. The isolation procedure started with concentration of the enzyme by batchwise anion-exchange chromatography and ammonium sulfate precipitation, followed by Sephacryl S-300 gel filtration and further purification by fast protein liquid chromatography on Mono Q, phenyl-Superose, and finally Superose 12. The purified preparation was found to be essentially free of activities of six other glycosidases also secreted by D. discoideum. On sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, the purified enzyme showed one major band with an apparent molecular mass of 62 kilodalton. Gel filtration of the enzyme on a Superose 12 column was consistent with an active monomer. A monoclonal antibody was produced, which recognizes a carbohydrate epitope shared by all lysosomal enzymes in D. discoideum. The pH optimum of the alpha-L-fucosidase is at 3.7. The apparent Michaelis constant for p-nitrophenyl alpha-L-fucoside as substrate is 1.2 mM. The enzyme catalyzes preferentially the hydrolysis of alpha 1----6GlcNAc but also of alpha 1----2Gal and alpha 1----3Glc fucosyl linkages.

Abstract
Porous discs made of poly(glycidyl methacrylate) were used for high-performance membrane chromatography (HPMC) of proteins. In model experiments, separations of standard proteins by anion-exchange HPMC using a DEAE disc were carried out. The influences of sample distribution and disc diameter and thickness on separation performance were studied. The separation disc allowed a scaling-up from analytical (diameter 10 mm) to semi-preparative (diameter 50 mm) dimensions. In an application study, separations with anion-exchange and affinity HPMC were carried out using different complex samples such as rat serum and plasma membrane proteins. In all experiments the results on poly(glycidyl methacrylate) discs were comparable to those achieved on adequate high-performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) columns. However, the separations on HPMC discs could be carried out faster than corresponding separations on HPLC columns. The pressure drop on the discs was low even at high flow-rates. The experiments show that the poly(glycidyl methacrylate) discs used are especially suitable for the isolation of proteins and other biopolymers which occur in a diluted state in complex mixtures.

Abstract
In liver homogenate the biosynthesis of N-acetylneuraminic acid using N-acetylglucosamine as precursor can be followed stepwise by applying different chromatographic procedures. In this cell-free system 16 metal ions (Zn2+, Mn2+, La3+, Co2+, Cu2+, Hg2+, VO3-, Pb2+, Ce3+, Cd2+, Fe2+, Fe3+, Al3+, Sn2+, Cs+ and Li+) and the selenium compounds, selenium(IV) oxide and sodium selenite, have been checked with respect to their ability to influence a single or possibly several steps of the biosynthesis of N-acetylneuraminic acid. It could be shown that the following enzymes are sensitive to these metal ions (usually applied at a concentration of 1 mmol l-1): N-acetylglucosamine kinase (inhibited by Zn2+ and vandate), UDP-N-acetylglucosamine-2'-epimerase (inhibited by Zn2+, Co2+, Cu2+, Hg2+, VO3-, Pb2+, Cd2+, Fe3+, Cs+, Li+, selenium(IV) oxide and selenite), and N-acetylmannosamine kinase (inhibited by Zn2+, Cu2+, Cd2+ and Co2+). Dose dependent measurements have shown that Zn2+, Cu2+ and selenite are more efficient inhibitors of UDP-N-acetylglucosamine-2'-epimerase than vanadate. As for the N-acetylmannosamine kinase inhibition, a decreasing inhibitory effect exists in the following order Zn2+, Cd2+, Co2+ and Cu2+. In contrast, La3+, Al3+ and Mn2+ (1 mmol l-1) did not interfere with the biosynthesis of N-acetylneuraminic acid. Thus, the conclusion that the inhibitory effect of the metal ions investigated cannot be regarded as simply unspecific is justified.

Abstract
2-Deoxy-2-fluoro-D-galactose (dGalF), added to the medium of primary cultured rat hepatocytes, inhibited N-glycosylation of membrane (gp 120) and secretory glycoproteins (alpha 1-macroglobulin) in a concentration-dependent manner. Complete inhibition of N-glycosylation was achieved at concentrations of 1 mM and above. At identical concentrations, 2-deoxy-2-fluoro-D-glucose (dGlcF) caused only incomplete inhibition of N-glycosylation. dGalF reduced incorporation of D-[2,6-3H]mannose into lipid-linked oligosaccharides indicating interference with their assembly in the dolichol cycle.

Abstract
Glycosyltransferase activities of highly purified fractions of Golgi apparatus, plasma membrane and endoplasmic reticulum, all from the same homogenates, were analyzed and compared. Additionally, Golgi apparatus were unstacked and the individual cisternae separated into fractions enriched in cis, median and trans elements using the technique of preparative free-flow electrophoresis. Golgi apparatus from both liver and hepatomas were enriched in all glycosyltransferases compared to endoplasmic reticulum and plasma membranes. However, Golgi apparatus from hepatomas showed both elevated fucosyltransferase and galactosyltransferase activities but reduced sialyltransferase and dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP IV) activities compared to liver. Activity of N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase was approximately the same in both liver and hepatoma Golgi apparatus. With normal liver, sialyl- and galactosyltransferase activities and DPP IV showed a marked cis-to-trans gradient of activity. Fucosyltransferase was concentrated in two regions of the electrophoretic separations, one corresponding to cis cisternae and one corresponding to trans cisternae. N-Acetylglucosaminyltransferase activity was more widely distributed but the endogenous acceptor activity was predominantly cis. With hepatoma Golgi apparatus, the pattern for DPP IV was similar to that for liver but those of sialyl- and galactosyltransferases differed markedly from liver. Instead of activity increasing cis to trans, the activities for sialyl- and galactosyltransferases decreased. For fucosyltransferases, activity dependent on exogenous acceptor was medial whereas with endogenous acceptor, two activity peaks, cis and trans, still were observed. For N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase the pattern for hepatoma was similar to that for liver. The results indicate alterations in the distribution of glycosyltransferase activities within the Golgi apparatus in hepatotumorigenesis that may reflect altered cell surface glycosylation patterns.

Abstract
The antineoplastic agent, hexadecylphosphocholine, a phospholipid analogue, inhibited phosphatidylserine-activated protein kinase C in vitro at concentrations higher than 40 mumol/l. The half-inhibitory concentration (IC50) was 62 mumol/l. Another alkylphosphocholine, dodecylphosphocholine, did not have an inhibitory effect on protein kinase C. At the same concentrations, hexadecylphosphocholine antagonised the phorbol ester-stimulated proliferation of Madin-Darby canine kidney cells whereas dodecylphosphocholine had no effect. In addition, phorbol ester-induced morphological changes of these epithelial cells were antagonised by hexadecylphosphocholine. Both effects of hexadecylphosphocholine, the inhibition of protein kinase C and the antagonisation of the altered cell morphology induced by phorbol ester, were comparable to those observed after treatment with sphingosine, a known protein kinase C inhibitor. We conclude that one possible mechanism of the antineoplastic action of hexadecylphosphocholine is mediated by inhibition of protein kinase C.

Abstract
A number of natural and synthetic sugar analogues have been tested for their antiviral activity, using an influenza virus strain as a model. Hemagglutinating titres (HA) and cytopathic effect (CPE) were surveyed to estimate the virus production. It was found that introduction of the benzyl group into these sugars generally causes them to become antivirally active. Substitution with methyl, acetyl, uridyl and thiocyanyl groups or derivatization with azido, isopropylidene and benzylidene groups were without effect. All sugars containing the 2-deoxy-2-acetamido group were inactive.

Abstract
Direct photoaffinity labeling of liver plasma membrane subfractions enriched in sinusoidal and canalicular membranes using [35S]adenosine 5'-O-(thiotriphosphate) ([35S]ATP gamma S) allows the identification of ATP-binding proteins in these domains. Comparative photoaffinity labeling with [35S]ATP gamma S and with the photolabile bile salt derivative (7,7-azo-3 alpha, 12 alpha-dihydroxy-5 beta-[3 beta-3H]-cholan-24-oyl-2'- aminoethanesulfonate followed by immunoprecipitation with a monoclonal antibody (Be 9.2) revealed the identity of the ATP-binding and the bile salt-binding canalicular membrane glycoprotein with the apparent Mr of 110,000 (gp110). The isoelectric point of this glycoprotein was 3.7. Transport of bile salt was studied in vesicles enriched in canalicular and sinusoidal liver membranes. Incubation of canalicular membrane vesicles with [3H] taurocholate in the presence of ATP resulted in an uptake of the bile salt into the vesicles which was sensitive to vanadate. ATP-dependent taurocholate transport was also observed in membrane vesicles from mutant rats deficient in the ATP-dependent transport of cysteinyl leukotrienes and related amphiphilic anions. Substrates of the P-glycoprotein (gp170), such as verapamil and doxorubicin, did not interfere with the ATP-dependent transport of taurocholate. Reconstitution of purified gp110 into liposomes resulted in an ATP-dependent uptake of [3H]taurocholate. These results demonstrate that gp110 functions as carrier in the ATP-dependent transport of bile salts from the hepatocyte into bile. This export carrier is distinct from hitherto characterized ATP-dependent transport systems.

Abstract
The influence of the phospholipid analogue hexadecylphosphocholine on phosphatidylcholine biosynthesis was investigated in Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells. It inhibits the incorporation rate of [methyl-3H]choline into phosphatidylcholine at a concentration of 50 microM by about 50%. The radiolabelled precursor accumulates in the phosphocholine pool indicating that hexadecylphosphocholine inhibits the formation of phosphatidylcholine via the CDP-choline pathway at the level of the rate-limiting enzyme. CTP:phosphocholine cytidylyl transferase (EC 2.7.7.15). This was verified by the determination of the activity of the enzyme in vitro. In consequence of its inhibitory effect it could be shown that the treatment of MDGK cells for 24 h with 50 microM hexadecylphosphocholine induces alterations of the phospholipid composition. Whereas in treated cells the relative phosphatidylcholine content was decreased from the control level of 36.0 +/- 0.9% to 29.9 +/- 0.2%; in contrast, the relative content of phosphatidylethanolamine was increased from 19.3 +/- 0.9% to 24.3 +/- 0.9%.

Abstract
The patterns of dipeptidyl peptidase (DPP) IV activity and protein amount in different rat organs during development were compared. In order to elucidate the molecular basis for these patterns, total RNA was isolated from lung and kidney at different stages of development and analysed by Northern-blot hybridization using an oligonucleotide derived from the DPP IV cDNA sequence. This oligonucleotide hybridized to two distinct mRNAs of approx. 3.2 and 4.8 kb respectively. During kidney development, the pattern for DPP IV mRNA paralleled that of DPP IV activity and protein amount, suggesting that, in kidney, the expression of DPP IV is primarily controlled at the transcriptional level. In contrast, the magnitude of DPP IV activity during lung development compared with that of DPP IV mRNA in lung suggests that post-transcriptional mechanisms are involved in regulating the expression of DPP IV in lung. Organ-specific regulation of DPP IV expression may provide a useful model for further comparative studies of transcriptional and post-transcriptional mechanisms of DPP IV expression within the same organism.

Abstract
Dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP IV) is a serine exopeptidase expressed at high levels in rat kidney, liver and lung. We established eight monoclonal antibodies against partially purified DPP IV from rat liver plasma membranes. By means of a competitive dot blot assay with purified DPP IV, these antibodies were shown to recognize four different epitopes of the glycoprotein, designated A - D. The epitopes are located on the extracellular domain of DPP IV, as shown by papain digestion of liver plasma membranes. Treatment of DPP IV with neuraminidase and glycopeptide N-glycosidase F, as well as incubation of hepatocytes with the alpha-mannosidase I inhibitor deoxymannojirimycin, revealed that epitope A may be formed by a mannose-rich sugar chain and epitope D might represent a complex carbohydrate structure in the mature glycoprotein, while the epitopes B and C are formed by the protein moiety. Concanavalin A reduced the binding of monoclonal antibody to epitope A by 78%. Binding to epitope D was blocked by 73% with wheat germ lectin, and by more than 99% with sialic acid; epitopes B and C were unaffected by any of the lectins or sugars tested. The immunological cross-reactivity with DPP IV from Morris hepatoma 7777 was demonstrated with monoclonal antibodies against epitopes A-C. Epitope D was not recognized on hepatoma DPP IV. However, in addition to DPP IV, four hepatoma plasma membrane glycoproteins were precipitated by the monoclonal antibody against the epitope D, indicating that this epitope is not uniquely restricted to DPP IV.

Abstract
Expression of six glycoproteins (Mr = 60,000 (gp 60), 80,000 (gp 80), 110,000 (gp 110), 120,000 (gp 120), 140,000 (gp 140), 160,000 (gp 160)) recently purified from rat liver plasma membranes (LPM) were compared in the liver, small intestine and kidney of the rat, rabbit and human. Immunoblotting studies with monospecific antisera showed that five of the six glycoproteins (gp 60, gp 80, gp 110, gp 120, and gp 140) were expressed not only in LPM of the rat but also in LPM from the rabbit and human with Mr corresponding to those of the glycoproteins isolated from the rat. In contrast, the glycoprotein gp 160 was only detected in rat liver. The same pattern of expression was found by immunofluorescence on isolated hepatocytes from the three species. In rat liver, the glycoproteins were localized primarily either in the bile canalicular domain (gp 80, gp 110, gp 120), or in the sinusoidal domain (gp 60, gp 140), or they were distributed over the whole hepatocellular surface (gp 160). In rat, but not in rabbit or human, the glycoproteins gp 110, gp 120 and gp 140 were also found in the small intestine localized either in the brush border membrane (gp 110, gp 120) or over the whole surface membrane of enterocytes (gp 140). Gp 120 was also detected in the luminal pole of tubular epithelial cells of rats kidney. The data show that LPM of different mammalian species share several common glycoprotein antigens. These glycoproteins, that are also partly expressed in extrahepatic tissues, may represent plasma membrane structures conserved among mammalian species.

Abstract
The occurrence of dipeptidyl peptidase (DPP) IV during development in Wistar rat organs was studied on day 10, 16 and 21 of gestation and on day 1, 4, 8, 13, 21, 26 and 60 after birth comparing immunohistochemistry and activity histochemistry. A polyclonal antibody, as well as monoclonal antibodies recognizing four different epitopes (A-D) of the DPP IV molecule, were employed for the immunohistochemical studies. In all investigated tissues, immunoreactivity with the polyclonal antibody appeared earlier than DPP IV activity and was already present on day 10 of gestation in the plasma membranes of embryonic and extraembryonic (decidual) cells. At these and other sites, e.g. brain capillary endothelium and tracheal or bronchial epithelium, immunoreactivity with the polyclonal antibody decreased or disappeared after birth and enzyme activity never developed. Immunoreactivity with the monoclonal antibodies appeared later than that with the polyclonal antibody, and mostly in those structures where DPP IV activity was subsequently found. The monoclonal antibody against epitope D showed a high reactivity in the epididymal duct, renal collecting ducts and in all domains of the hepatocyte plasma membrane, where neither DPP IV activity nor immunoreactivity with the other antibodies were observed. Our results also suggest that DPP IV might be present as a molecule before it becomes catalytically active and that immunoreactivity occurs at more sites than DPP IV activity. However, it cannot be excluded that the polyclonal antibody and the monoclonal antibody against the epitope D cross-react with as yet uncharacterized proteins, which express common epitopes during embryonic development, but are not present in the tissues of adult Wistar rats.

Abstract
Hydrophobic membrane proteins, extrinsic and intrinsic ones, were separated by high-performance capillary zone electrophoresis (HPCZE) and high-performance capillary isotachophoresis (HPCITP). In the case of HPCZE with both coated and uncoated quartz capillaries the addition of 7 M urea to the separation buffers was necessary to achieve reproducible results. In the HPCITP experiments PTFE capillaries were used. When spacers were used, e.g., ampholytes, additional splitting of peaks was observed. The splitting was caused by the microheterogeneity of the investigated proteins, which are differently glycosylated and/or phosphorylated.

Abstract
Peptide-N4-(N-acetyl-beta-glucosaminyl)asparagine amidase F(PNGase F) from Flavobacterium meningosepticum is a highly useful enzyme for the structural analysis of N (asparagine)-linked carbohydrate chains derived from glycoproteins. The enzyme was enriched using a published procedure [Tarentino AL, Gomez CM, Plummer TH, Jr (1984) Biochemistry 1985:4665-71; Tarentino AL, Plummer TH, Jr (1987) Methods Enzymol 138:770-78] and further purified by hydrophobic interaction HPLC on a weak hydrophobic TSK-Ether column from which it was eluted by a decreasing gradient of 1.7 M ammonium sulphate in 100 mM sodium phosphate, pH 7.0, containing 5 mM EDTA. To determine the optimal conditions for a complete deglycosylation of glycoproteins by PNGase F, experiments were performed with human alpha 1-acid glycoprotein, because the five complex type carbohydrate chains are quite resistant to enzymic hydrolysis. The influence of different detergents on the enzyme reaction was studied. Complete deglycosylation of human alpha 1-acid glycoprotein was achieved by the use of 60 mU/ml PNGase F in 0.25 M sodium phosphate buffer, pH 8.6, containing 0.2% (w/v) SDS, 20 mM mercaptoethanol and 0.5% Mega-10.

Abstract
The endogenous opioid enkephalin drives ion transport towards absorption. To determine the site and mechanism of this effect, fractionated stripping of guinea-pig ileum was carried out. The muscularis propria, including myenteric plexus, was removed by partial stripping. The submucosa, including the submucosal plexus, plus the muscularis mucosae were removed by total stripping. For binding studies, epithelial cells were removed by the method of Weiser leaving the lamina propria mucosae with the mucosal plexus. Radio-receptor-assay with (3H)2-D-ala-5-D-leu-enkephalin revealed enkephalin binding sites in the submucosa plus muscularis mucosae (KD = 3.6 nmol l-1; Vmax = 7.3 fmol mg-1) and in the lamina propria mucosae (KD = 4.2 nmol l-1; Vmax = 5.1 fmol mg-1. The binding was stereospecific in both layers. No binding was detected on epithelial cells. In the Ussing chamber, partially stripped ileum exhibited spontaneous ISC which was abolished by addition of tetrodotoxin (TTX) or by total stripping indicating that this ISC was neuronally stimulated by the submucosal plexus. Electrogenic chloride secretion was identified as contributing to this ISC, since the TTX-sensitive part of ISC in the partially stripped ileum was lacking in Cl- and HCO3-free medium, reappeared after addition of Cl consistent with Michaelis-Menten kinetics (Km = 19 nmol l-1) and was reversed by serosal addition of bumetanide. In addition, enkephalin increased electroneutral NaCl-absorption as obtained by Na- and Cl-flux measurements. Enkephalin decreased this spontaneous neuronally stimulated electrogenic Cl-secretion in the partially stripped ileum, but had no effect in totally stripped ileum if ISC was stimulated at the cellular level by theophylline or PGE1. We conclude that ganglia located in the submucosal plexus regulate intestinal ion transport. Enkephalin acts by presynaptic inhibition via receptors on these neurons in the submucosa and/or via receptors on their neurites in the lamina propria mucosae.

Abstract
Polyclonal antibodies were raised against membrane-associated calcium-binding proteins (apparent molecular masses 65000 and 67000 (CBP 65/67) and 33000 and 35000 (CBP 33 and CBP 35)), which were isolated from rat liver and Morris hepatoma. Using immunoblotting, various amounts of CBP 33 and CBP 35 as well as CBP 65/67 were detected in most rat organs. Using alkaline phosphatase and monoclonal-anti-alkaline phosphatase antibodies (APAAP), all the calcium-binding proteins were detected by immunohistochemical techniques in the plasma membranes of many cells, such as vascular endothelial cells, lymphocytes, epididymal principal cells, secretory and excretory duct cells of certain exocrine glands, straight distal tubular cells of the kidney, and in the cytoplasm of muscle cells and fibres as well as nerve cells and chondrocytes, and in connective tissue elements. Immunohistochemical analysis also showed that in polarized epithelial cells, e.g., renal tubular cells, epididymal principal cells or excretory duct cells, these calcium-binding proteins are present exclusively or mostly in the luminal plasma membrane.

Abstract
By a combination of high-performance affinity chromatographic (HPAC) methods, several membrane proteins from liver, Morris hepatoma and kidney were isolated. The use of a tandem system, consisting of a concanavalin A (ConA) and a wheat germ agglutinin (WGA) high-performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) column, as a first purification step allowed the isolation of proteins directly from organ homogenates. In a subsequent step, the membrane proteins can be isolated by simply using a combination of immunoaffinity HPLC and preparative sodium dodecyl sulphate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). However, with these methods most proteins lose their biological activity. If native proteins are required, a combination of different HPAC methods has to be applied. Several membrane proteins were isolated in milligram amounts under non-denaturing conditions using either HPAC columns or Mem Sep membranes with immobilized lectins, collagen, amino acids, crown ethers or heparin.

Abstract
Plasma membrane glycoproteins of rat hepatocytes undergo a rapid terminal deglycosylation in that the terminal sugars of the oligosaccharide side chains are rapidly removed from the otherwise intact glycoproteins [Tauber, R., Park, C.S. & Reutter, W. (1983) Proc. Natl Acad. Sci. USA 80, 4026-4029]. The present paper demonstrates that this rapid intramolecular turnover of plasma membrane glycoproteins is not restricted to peripheral sugars but, in contrast to liver, in hepatoma the core sugars of the oligosaccharide chains are also involved. Intramolecular turnover was measured in Morris hepatoma 7777 in five plasma membrane glycoproteins with Mr of 85,000 (hgp85), 105,000 (hgp105), 115,000 (hgp115), 125,000 (hgp125), 175,000 (hgp175) (hgp = hepatoma glycoprotein) that were isolated and purified to homogeneity by concanavalin-A--Sepharose affinity chromatography and semipreparative SDS gel electrophoresis. Analysis of the carbohydrates of hgp85, hgp105, hgp115 and hgp125 revealed the presence of N-linked oligosaccharides containing L-fucose, D-galactose, D-mannose and N-acetyl-D-glucosamine, but only of trace amounts of N-acetyl-D-galactosamine; hgp175 additionally contained significant amounts of N-acetyl-D-galactosamine, indicating the presence of both N- and O-linked oligosaccharides. As shown by digestion with endoglucosaminidase H, the N-linked oligosaccharides of hgp105, hgp115, hgp125 and hgp175 were of the complex type, whereas hgp85 also contained oligosaccharides of the high-mannose type. Half-lives of the turnover of the oligosacharide chains and of the protein backbone of the five glycoproteins were measured in the plasma membrane in pulse-chase experiments in vivo, using L-[3H]fucose as a marker of terminal sugars, D-[3H]mannose as marker of a core sugar and L-[3H]leucine for labelling the protein backbone. Protein backbones of the five glycoproteins were degraded with individual half-lives ranging over 41-90 h with a mean of 66 h. Compared to the degradation of the polypeptide backbone, both the terminal sugar L-fucose and the core sugar D-mannose turned over with much shorter half-lives averaging about 20 h in the five glycoproteins. The data show that, conversely to liver, within plasma membrane glycoproteins of hepatoma not only peripheral sugars but also core sugars of the oligosaccharides are split off during the life-span of the protein backbone. It may therefore be assumed that this reprocessing of plasma membrane glycoproteins is sensitive to malignant transformation.

Abstract
A method was developed to isolate cell surface proteins by a simple two-step procedure. Hepatocyte cell surface proteins were labeled by a cleavable biotin derivative in a covalent pulse reaction. Under the described conditions, NHS-SS-biotin proved to be an impermeant, cell surface-specific label which does not affect the impermeant, cell surface-specific label which does not affect the viability of rat hepatocytes. Biotinylated cell surface proteins could be selectively separated under non-denaturing conditions from non-biotinylated proteins and biotin-containing carboxylases by avidin affinity chromatography and sulfhydryl-mediated elution. Subsequent to alkylation of the eluted protein, individual cell surface proteins could be isolated by immunoprecipitation as shown for a selected Mr 120,000 glycoprotein gp120 of the hepatocyte plasma membrane. Using this technique, a transit time of gp120 from the endoplasmic reticulum to the cell surface of 2 h was determined. The results show that the combination of labeling with a cleavable biotin derivative, non-denaturing avidin affinity chromatography and immunoprecipitation is a useful method to isolate and study individual cell surface proteins.
