Abstract
Mitochondrial outer membranes were prepared from mouse liver homogenates by swelling purified mitochondria in phosphate buffer and were purified on a discontinuous sucrose gradient. Assays for marker enzymes and controls in electron microscopy confirmed the purity and homogeneity of this subfraction. Mitochondrial outer membranes had significant galactosyltransferase activity when incubated with UDP-[14C]galactose: 14C-labelling was found in products extractable with organic solvents and in a residual precipitate. Addition of exogenous dolichylmonophosphate loaded into phosphatidylcholine liposomes strongly enhanced the incorporation of [14C]galactose into chloroform/methanol (2:1, v/v) -extractable products. Thin-layer chromatography of these 2:1 extracts showed that the increase of [14C]galactose incorporation was attributable to the synthesis of a new galactosylated lipid, 'lipid L'. This 'lipid L' has been purified on silicic acid columns by elution with chloroform/methanol (1:1, v/v). The purified 'lipid L' was labile in acid and released [14C]galactose. It had the same chromatographic behaviour as dolichylmonophosphate-mannose in neutral, acid and alkaline solvent systems. Upon incubation in presence of [3H]dolichylmonophosphate and UDP-[14C]galactose, purified 'lipid L' contained both 3H- and 14C-labelling. 'Lipid L', synthesized by mitochondrial outer membranes, was therefore characterized as dolichylmonophosphate-galactose.

Abstract
UDP-galactose appears to be produced on one side of a membrane barrier, opposite the galactosyltransferases that use it as a sugar donor. The translocation of activated galactose across membranes was studied in rat submaxillary-gland microsomal vesicles and in rat liver Golgi vesicles. When these intact vesicles containing the acceptor, N-acetylglucosamine, were incubated in the presence of UDP-galactose and two inhibitors of galactosyltransferase activity, the product, N-acetyl-lactosamine, formed within the vesicles. Thus at least the galactose moiety of UDP-galactose crossed the membranes. When intact Golgi vesicles were incubated with UDP-galactose labelled in both the uridine and the galactose moieties, labelled N-acetyllactosamine was again produced in the vesicles, but less than stoichiometric amounts of the uridine label was found there. Calculation of internal and external concentrations of UMP, a major product released from the cleaved uridine moiety, showed that the vesicles were actually enriched in UMP. When free UMP was incubated with the vesicles, this enrichment did not occur. This result was direct evidence for facilitated transport of UDP-galactose into the Golgi for use by galactosyltransferase.

Abstract
A galactosyltransferase activity is located in the cell-sap of aortic intima-media cells. This enzymatic system calatyzes [14C]galactose transfer from UDP-[14C]galactose into endogenous and exogenous proteinic acceptors. Labelled products are isolated from the proteinic fraction obtained in 20% trichloroacetic acid pellet or from organic solvent extractions. Maximal [14C]galactose incorporation occurs at pH 7.8 in Tris-HCl buffer in the presence of 0.1 mM MnCl2 at 30 degrees C. The enzymatic activity is modified by phospholipids, particularly by phosphatidic acid and lysophosphatidylcholine, which behave as mixed inhibitors, while L-alpha-phosphatidylserine interacts as a competitive inhibitor. The effect of phospholipids is not stereospecific but appeared to be closely related to their polar headgroups, especially the acidic headgroups of phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidic acid. The chain length and the unsaturation degree of fatty acids involved in phospholipid structures are not a main factor of regulation. The lysophosphatidylcholine effect could be explained by its solubilization properties, as non-ionic detergents interact in the same way with galactosyltransferase activity. Exogenous phospholipids probably interact with the enzymatic environment by their own molecular arrangement and so could exert a control on galactosyltransferase activity or lead to a conformation change of this enzyme.

Abstract
When purified Golgi fractions were incubated with UDP-[3H]galactose in the absence of Triton-X-100, radioactivity was incorporated into an endogenous lipid and several peptide acceptors. Electron microscope analysis of Golgi fractions incubated in the endogenous galactosyl transferase assay medium revealed extensive fusion of Golgi saccules. Systematic removal of constituents in the galactosyl transferase assay medium showed enhanced (minus beta-mercaptoethanol) or reduced (minus ATP, minus sodium cacodylate buffer or minus MnCl2) fusion of Golgi membranes compared to the complete medium, Stereologic analysis revealed a correlation between membrane fusion and galactosyl transferase activity (r = 0.99, P less than 0.001). Electron microscope radioautography was carried out after incubation of Golgi fractions with UDP-[3H]galactose. Silver grains were not observed over trans elements of Golgi but were revealed mainly over large fused saccules with the number of silver grains being proportionate to membrane fusion (r = 0.92, P less than 0.001). Bilayer destabilization at points of Golgi membrane fusion may act to translocate galactose across the Golgi membrane and thereby provide a fusion regulated substrate for terminal glycosylation.

Abstract
The distribution of the three glycosyltransferases synthesizing the terminal trisaccharide sialic acid yields D-galactose yields N-acetylglucosamine present in many glycoproteins was determined in Golgi fractions prepared from rat liver homogenates by a modification of the procedure of Ehrenreich et al. (1973, J. Cell Biol. 70:671--684). The enzymes were assayed with asialofetuin, ovomucoid, and Smith-degraded ovomucoid as sugar acceptors. Careful adjustment of the pH of all sucrose solutions to 7.0 +/- 0.1 prevented enzyme inactivation, and allowed quantitative recoveries at every isolation step. The three morphologically and functionally different Golgi fractions GJ1, GF2, and GF3 showed (in that order) decreasing specific activities of all three enzymes, but the relative amounts and relative specific activities of the three transferases in any given fraction were nearly identical. Two marginal fractions, one extra heavy (collected on the gradient below GF3) and the other extra light (isolated by flotation from the postmicrosomal supernate) were found to contain recognizable Golgi elements. An enrichment of any transferase over the two others was not detected in either preparation. A partial release of content from a combined GF1+2 was achieved by treatment with the nonionic detergent Triton X-100. Low Triton/phospholipid ratios (less than 2 mg/mg) led to lysis of the vesicles and cisternae and loss of very low density lipoprotein particles (ascertained by electron microscopy), but failed to separate the transferases from each other; the three enzymes sedimented together with a population of empty vesicles to a density of approximately 1.08 g/ml.

Abstract
UDPgalactosyltransferase activity (UDPgalactose:mucopolysaccharide galactosyltransferase, EC 2.4.1.74) was measured in a well-characterized fraction of Golgi membranes in the presence of UDPgalactose and exogenous acceptor sites. Substrate saturation for 0.05 mg Golgi protein was achieved at a concentration of 4.6 mM UDPgalactose. Desialylated mucin proved to be the most suitable acceptor protein. Access to galactose acceptor sites was not rate limiting for the reaction when 20 mg of asialo-mucin/ml of incubation mixture was used. With these concentrations of substrates the use of nucleotides to inhibit pyrophosphatases and of detergents to perturb the membrane structure was not necessary and proved, in fact, to be inhibitory to galactose transfer. UDPgalactosyl:asialo-mucin transferase activity in Golgi membranes was 230 nmol galactose transferred/mg Golgi protein per 30 min.

Abstract
A crude organelle preparation from germinating castor bean endosperm catalysed the incorporation of galactose from UDP[(14)C]galactose into chloroform/methanol (2:1)-soluble glactolipids. At least two galactolipids were formed. Most of the [(14)C]galactose was present in a galactolipid synthesized by the microsomal membranes, the remainder was present in a second galactolipid synthesized by other cellular membranes, possibly Golgi-derived. The addition of asialo-agalacto-fetuin reduced incorporation of [(14)C]galactose into the microsomal galactolipid with a concomitant increase in microsomal [(14)C]galactoprotein. Asialo-agalacto-fetuin did not affect galactolipid or galactoprotein synthesis by nonmicrosomal fractions. The results suggest that the endoplasmic reticulum is a major site of protein galactosylation in castor bean endosperm cells, and that galactose transfer from UDP-galactose to protein occurs via a lipid-linked intermediate.

Abstract
Rough and smooth microsomes and Golgi membranes were incubated with UDP[14C]galactose and the incorporation of radioactivity into the lipid extract and into endogenous protein acceptors were measured. Antagonistic pyrophosphatases were inhibited with ATP and interference from beta-galactosidase activity was greatly decreased by carrying out the incubation at pH 7.8. After incubation the particles were centrifuged to remove free oligosaccharide residues. Radioactivity was found in the lipid extract from Golgi membranes but not from rough and smooth microsomes. This radioactivity, however, was not associated with dolichol or retinyl phosphates. The incorporation of radioactivity into proteins of the Golgi fraction was more than double than that of the microsomal fractions. In addition, the transferases in these two types of particles exhibited different properties. Trypsin treatment of intact rough microsomal vesicles, smooth vesicles and Golgi membranes removed about 5, 15 and 50%, respectively, of newly incorporated protein-bound galactose, indicating that the proportion of the newly galactosylated proteins, which are localized at the cytoplasmic surface of the membrane, is lowest in rough microsomes, intermediate in smooth, and highest in Golgi membranes.

Abstract
A particulate enzyme preparation from Acetobacter xylinum synthesizes ficaprenol-monophosphate-beta-galactose from ficaprenol monophosphate (FMP) and UDP-galactose in the presence of detergent. The product has the same properties as those previously reported for the compound formed with the endogenous acceptor. Dolichol-monophosphate (DolMP) is also a good galactose acceptor but the product obtained has different properties. Lipid extracts from Acetobacter contain galactose acceptor capacity which is lost by mild acid treatment. FMP behaves in a similar manner but DolMP is resistant to this treatment. It is concluded that the endogeneous acceptor is an allylic phosphate ester of a polyprenol.

Abstract
Cultured-cell homogenates catalysed the incorporation of galactose from UDP-galactose into protein and sphingolipid acceptors. Dolichol monophosphate stimulated the incorporation of galactose into glycoproteins, but it did not affect the rate of glycosylation of either exogenous or endogenous glycosphingolipids. It is proposed that, under certain conditions, galactose may be incorporated into glycoproteins via polyisoprenol intermediates, as is the case with N-acetylglucosamine and mannose.

Abstract
1. Phospholipids activated the enzyme, lactosylceramide: UDP-galactose alpha-galactosyltransferase in hamster cells (NIL 2E clone 8) when assayed in the presence of neutral detergents. 2. Phosphatidylserine and phosphatidylinositol were the most effective phospholipids in activating the enzyme. Other phospholipids were also effective, but sphingomyelin and lysophosphatidylcholine were inhibitory. 3. Considerable enzyme activity was obtained in the absence of any detergent. Most of this activity was due to glycosylation of endogenous acceptors. 4. There was a complex effect of detergents on the enzyme activity. Very low concentrations were sharply inhibitory, but higher concentrations, above the critical micelle concentration for detergent, caused regeneration of activity. 5. The phospholipids, in the absence of a detergent, are required to maintain the lipid substrate, lactosylceramide, in a suitable dispersion where it can be acted upon by the enzyme. In the presence of detergents, it is proposed that the phospholipids also act by affecting the state of the lipid substrate.

Abstract
Incubation of liver microsomes with GDP [14C] mannose leads to the formation of lipid-linked derivatives of [14C] mannose, a dolichol phosphate monosaccharide and dolichol pyrophosphate oligosaccharides. Standard procedures for separating these two types of compounds from each other were found to be deficient in that fractions thought to contain only dolichol pyrophosphate oligosaccharides are contaminated with dolichol phosphate mannose. This paper presents a column chromatographic procedure which conveniently separates the products of an 8 min labeling experiment into two components; dolichol phosphate [14C]mannose and a [14C]-mannose containing oligosaccharide which is also lipid bound. When this oligosaccharide is released from the lipid by hydrolysis and chromatographed on Sephadex G-50 or G-15 it gives a single peak with an indicated molecular weight of 1100. However, when this released oligosaccharide is chromatographed on concanavalin A Sepharose it is resolved into two peaks suggesting that there may be 2 oligosaccharide of approximately the same size but different structures. After brief periods of labeling with GDP [14C]mannose (5 s) an additional oligosaccharide of 3 to 4 sugar residues can be found in the dolichol pyrophosphate oligosaccharides fraction. Incubation of liver microsomes with UDP [14C]glucose or UDP[14C]galactose produces oligosaccharide components containing 7--8 sugar residues. Labeling of microsomes with UDP[14C]acetylglucosamine gives rise to three different components, including a lipid bound oligosaccharide containing 3- 5 sugar residues.
