The Structure of Erythrocyte Membranes Studied by Freeze-etching
The distribution of specific glycoprotein receptors on the external surfaces of red cells was mapped, by the freeze-etching technique, to determine if the receptors coincided with the underlying 75-A intramembranous particles. Phytohemagglutinin, ferritin-conjugated phytohemagglutinin, and influenza virus were used as labeling agents since they can be seen by freeze-etching techniques and each ...
متن کاملFreeze-fracture cytochemistry: partition of glycophorin in freeze- fractured human erythrocyte membranes
Thin-section and critical-point-dried fracture-labeled preparations are used to determine the distribution and partition of glycophorin-associated wheat germ agglutinin (WGA) binding sites over protoplasmic and exoplasmic faces of freeze-fractured human erythrocyte membranes. Most wheat germ agglutinin binding sites are found over exoplasmic faces. Label is sparse over the protoplasmic faces. T...
متن کاملFreeze-etching studies of human platelets.
The freeze-etching technique was used to study morphologic features of normal human platelets. A well-developed canalicular system was demonstrated within the platelet, with communication to the plasma surface of the platelets and with direct contact of the canaliculi with organelles. Cross-section fractures of granules revealed cornpartmentalization in some while others appeared homogeneous. S...
متن کاملViewed by Freeze-Etching'
The indigenous microflora of soil were released from the soil materials and concentrated without the occurrence of growth by use of a blending-simple centrifugation procedure. The cell concentrate was then frozen-etched and viewed by transmission electron microscopy. Criteria were established for detecting microbial cells among the residual soil debris. The freeze-etching of the soil cell conce...
متن کاملMembrane Splitting in Freeze-etching
The freeze-etch technique was used to observe red blood cell ghosts labeled on both surfaces with covalently bound ferritin. Ferritin molecules were never observed on fracture faces, thus indicating that fracture does not show membrane-surface detail. Subliming away the surrounding ice did expose the ferritin on the membrane surface. These results were consistent with the concept that membranes...
