Abstract
Gangliosides have generally been assumed to be localized primarily in the plasma membrane. Analysis of gangliosides from isolated subcellular membrane fractions of rat liver indicated that 76% of the total ganglioside sialic acid was present in the plasma membrane. Mitochondria and endoplasmic reticulum fractions, while containing only low levels of gangliosides on a protein basis, each contained approx. 10% of total ganglioside sialic acid. Gangliosides also were present in the Golgi apparatus and nuclear membrane fractions, and soluble gangliosides were in the supernatant. Individual gangliosides were non-homogeneously distributed and each membrane fraction was characterized by a unique ganglioside composition. Plasma membrane contained only 14 and 28% of the total GD1a and GD3, respectively, but 80-90% of the GM1, GD1b, GT1b and GQ1b. Endoplasmic reticulum, when corrected for plasma membrane contamination, contained only trace amounts of GM1, GD1b, GT1b and GQ1b, but 11 and 5% of the total GD1a and GD3, respectively. The ganglioside composition of highly purified endoplasmic reticulum was similar. Ganglioside biosynthetic enzymes were concentrated in the Golgi apparatus. However, low levels of these enzymes were present in the highly purified endoplasmic reticulum fractions. Pulse-chase experiments with [3H]galactose revealed that total gangliosides were labeled first in the Golgi apparatus, mitochondria and supernatant within 10 min. Labeled gangliosides were next observed at 30 min in the endoplasmic reticulum, plasma membrane and nuclear membrane fractions. Analysis of the individual gangliosides also revealed that GM3, GM1, GD1a and GD1b were labeled first in the Golgi apparatus at 10 min. These studies indicate that gangliosides synthesized in the Golgi apparatus may be transported not only to the plasma membrane, but to the endoplasmic reticulum and to other internal endomembranes as well.

Abstract
The forces that hold cell membrane components together are non-covalent and thermodynamically favoured in aqueous media. Hence virtually any glycolipid or membrane glycoprotein might be expected to be incorporable into lipid bilayer membranes and this expectation has been borne out. In addition methods have been developed for linking lipid fragments to species that would not otherwise be expected to associate with bilayers. Techniques that have been successfully used to generate bilayer structures bearing glycolipids and glycoproteins include hydration of films dried down from non-aqueous solutions of the components, detergent removal from aqueous component solutions, exogenous addition to preformed membranes, and various organic solvent injection or reverse phase approaches. Bilayer association of glycolipids and membrane glycoproteins, with preservation of specific receptor function, seem easy to achieve--in fact difficult not to achieve. Optimization of receptor function to accurately mimic that of cell membranes and efficient preservation of functions such as transport or second messenger activation, are typically more demanding, although still feasible. A systematic approach can give considerable insight into the processes involved via identification of minimal necessary factors. Unfortunately, the actual relative arrangement of components, so critical to subtleties of glycolipid and glycoprotein function, remains almost totally unknown for lack of morphological information in the size range of individual macromolecules. The latter problem has come to be the most critical limitation to many studies.

Abstract
The properties of tetanus toxin interaction with human erythrocytes supplemented with disialo- and trisialo-gangliosides have been investigated. Binding of toxin is linear with time for 1 h and is 3-4-fold higher at 37 degrees C than at 4 degrees C during incubation of long duration. It exhibits saturation at toxin concentrations between 0.1 and 1 microgram/ml; however, it is nonsaturable between 1 and up to 50 micrograms/ml. It is effectively prevented by free gangliosides and antibodies or by pretreatment with sialidase but is unaffected by a number of closely related ligands including toxoid and toxin fragments. NaCl (1 M) removes a great portion (86%) of cell-associated toxin while Triton X-100 extracts an additional fraction (30%) of the salt-resistant cell-bound toxin. The residual sequestred toxin after detergent extraction is sensitive to proteolytic degradation. The trypsin-stable fraction (1.5%) is biotoxic and may be indicative of internalization of toxin. A macromolecular complex of about 700 kDa containing toxin and gangliosides has been isolated and characterized by Sephacryl S-300 gel permeation chromatography, SDS-gel electrophoresis, immunoprecipitability and biotoxicity. This complex is obtained only in ganglioside-supplemented cells and not when free 3H-labeled GD1b is reacted with 125I-labeled toxin in solution in the absence of cells. The hydrophobicity properties acquired as a result of ganglioside-toxin interaction, presumably at the cell surface, suggest a conformational change of the toxin which may enable its penetration into the bilayer.

Abstract
The binding of cholera and tetanus toxins to receptors on the surfaces of teased nerve fibers was used to localize GM1 and G1b-series gangliosides, respectively, by immunocytochemical methods. Native fibers and fibers treated with various hydrolytic enzymes to degrade specific surface components were studied. With native fibers, both toxins bound abundantly to nodes of Ranvier and poorly to the most external, internodal Schwann cell surfaces. Treatment of the fibers with proteases, hyaluronidase, and chondroitin ABC lyase neither eliminated receptors at the nodes nor unmasked receptors over the internodes. The axolemma underlying the paranodal or internodal myelin, exposed by extensive treatment with protease, bound both toxins in large amounts. Neuraminidase action induced cholera toxin receptors on the Schwann cell surface; these receptors were insensitive to protease. The results indicate that GM1 and G1b-series gangliosides are predominantly localized to axonal and glial structures of the node of Ranvier and to paranodal/internodal Axolemma, and that polysialogangliosides not of the G1b-series are present on the internodal Schwann cell surface.

Abstract
Gangliosides are complex glycosphingolipids that contain from one to several residues of sialic acid. They are present in the plasma membrane of vertebrate cells with their oligosaccharide chains exposed to the external environment. They have been implicated as cell surface receptors and several bacterial toxins have been shown to interact with them. Cholera toxin, which mediates its effects on cells by activating adenylate cyclase, bind with high affinity and specificity to ganglioside GM1. Toxin-resistant cells which lack GM1 can be sensitized to cholera toxin by treating them with GM1. Cholera toxin specifically protects GM1 from cell surface labeling procedures and only GM1 is recovered when toxin-receptor complexes are isolated by immunoadsorption. These results clearly demonstrate that GM1 is the specific and only receptor for cholera toxin. Although cholera toxin binds to GM1 on the external side of the plasma membrane, it activates adenylate cyclase on the cytoplasmic side of the membrane by ADP-ribosylation of the regulatory component of the cyclase. GM1 in addition to functioning as a binding site for the toxin appears to facilitate its transmembrane movement. The heat-labile enterotoxin of E. coli is very similar to cholera toxin in both form and function and can also use GM1 as a cell surface receptor. The potent neurotoxin, tetanus toxin, has a high affinity for gangliosides GD1b and GT1b and binds to neurons which contain these gangliosides. It is not yet clear whether these gangliosides are the physiological receptors for tetanus toxin. By applying the techniques that established GM1 as the receptor for cholera toxin, the role of gangliosides as receptors for tetanus toxin as well as physiological effectors may be elucidated.

Abstract
Diphtheria toxin bound to the phosphate portion of some, but not all, phospholipids in liposomes. Liposomes consisting of dimyristoyl phosphatidylcholine and cholesterol did not bind toxin. Addition of 20 mol% (compared to dimyristoyl phosphatidylcholine) of dipalmitoyl phosphatidic acid, dicetyl phosphate, phosphatidylinositol phosphate, cardiolipin, or phosphatidylserine in the liposomes resulted in substantial binding of toxin. Inclusion of phosphatidylinositol in dimyristol phosphatidylcholine/cholesterol liposomes did not result in toxin binding. The calcium salt of dipalmitoyl phosphatidic acid was more effective than the sodium salt, and the highest level of binding occurred with liposomes consisting only of dipalmitoyl phosphatidic acid (calcium salt) and cholesterol. Binding of toxin to liposomes was dependent on pH, and the pattern of pH dependence varied with liposomes having different compositions. Incubation of diphtheria toxin with liposomes containing dicetyl phosphate resulted in maximal binding at pH 3.6, whereas binding to liposomes containing phosphatidylinositol phosphate was maximal above pH 7. Toxin did not bind to liposomes containing 20 mol% of a free fatty acid (palmitic acid) or a sulfated lipid (3-sulfogalactosylceramide). Toxin binding to dicetyl phosphate or phosphatidylinositol phosphate was inhibited by UTP, ATP, phosphocholine, or p-nitrophenyl phosphate, but not by uracil. We conclude that (a) diphtheria toxin binds specifically to the phosphate portion of certain phospholipids, (b) binding to phospholipids in liposomes is dependent on pH, but is not due only to electrostatic interaction, and (c) binding may be strongly influenced by the composition of adjacent phospholipids that do not bind toxin. We propose that a minor membrane phospholipid (such as phosphatidylinositol phosphate or phosphatidic acid), or that some other phosphorylated membrane molecule (such as a phosphoprotein) may be important in the initial binding of diphtheria toxin to cells.

Abstract
The membranes of living organisms are involved in many aspects of the life, growth and development of all cells. The predominant structural elements of these membranes are lipids and proteins and the basic strucvture of these molecules has been reviewed. The physical properties of the lipid constituents particularly their behavior in aqueous systems has led to the concepts of thermotropic and lyotropic mesomorphism; the interaction between different types of lipid molecules modulate this behavior. Interaction of phospholipids in aqueous systems with cholesterol, ions and drugs have been examined in this context. In addition a variety of model lipid-protein systems have been investigated and the implications of interactions between lipids and different proteins in biological membranes has been evaluated. This leads to a detailed consideration of the way lipids and proteins ae organized in cell membranes and contains an appraisal of the evidence supporting contemporary views of membrane structure. Particular attention has been devoted to the question of how mobile the components are within the structure. Particular attention has been devoted to the question of how mobile the components are within the structure. Finally the biosynthesis, turnover and modulation of the properties of interacting membrane constituents is critically reviewed and possible ways of controlling the behavior of cells and organisms by altering the structural parameters of different membranes has been considered.

Abstract
Lipid-bound sialic acid in the murine melanoma cell is not totally inaccessible to an exogenous macromolecular probe, as formerly believed. Roughly 30% of the dialic acid bound to lipid, and an equal proportion of the sialic acid bound to protein is cleaved by the action of Clostridium perfringens N-acetylneuraminate glycohydrolase (neuraminidase, sialidase) when the purified enzyme is added to the suspenion medium of intact murine melanoma cells freshly derived from the tumor. Cleavage of lipid-bound sialic acid is indifferent to the presence of Ca (2+) in the medium. However, maximum release from protein requires a physiological concentration of this divalent cation. Variation in ionic strength has no effect on release of sialic acid. These findings show that restricted portion of the bound sialic acid may be released from the intact murine melanama cell by the extracellularly supplied enzyme acting topographically.

Abstract
From cell fractionation studies it is concluded that gangliosides have a wide distribution in neuronal plasma membranes, being concentrated in the microsomal and the nerve-ending membranes rich in acetylcholinesterase. When properly purified synaptic vesicles are devoid of gangliosides and acetylcholinesterase; thus the possible relationship between gangliosides and the cholinergic transmitter should be discarded. There are important evidences that specific gangliosides may play a role in the binding of certain toxins and viruses to the plasma membrane; however, their possible role as synaptic receptors is not supported by our experiments. The central receptor for 5HT appears not to be related to brain gangliosides and is represented by a hydrophobic protein (i.e. proteolipid) present in the synaptic junction.
