Biosynthesis of high molecular weight breast carcinoma associated mucin glycoproteins.
We have studied the biosynthesis of mucin glycoproteins recognized by monoclonal antibody W1 in MCF7 cells. Proteins of Mr 170,000, 185,000, 260,000, and 275,000 were immunoprecipitated from cells pulse-labeled with [3H]threonine and [3H]proline. Evidence suggesting that these proteins were precursors of high molecular weight mucin(s) included: 1) their kinetics of disappearance corresponded wi...
متن کاملCharacterization of different high molecular weight angiotensinogen forms.
BACKGROUND Angiotensinogen is the substrate for renin in the system that releases angiotensin II. This renin-angiotensin system is an important regulator of blood pressure (BP), and defects in the system are linked to the development of hypertension. Native angiotensinogen is a 62,000-dalton monomer, but various high molecular weight forms also exist, which have not been well characterized. Hig...
متن کاملHigh Molecular Weight Forms of Mammalian Respiratory Chain Complex II
Mitochondrial respiratory chain is organised into supramolecular structures that can be preserved in mild detergent solubilisates and resolved by native electrophoretic systems. Supercomplexes of respiratory complexes I, III and IV as well as multimeric forms of ATP synthase are well established. However, the involvement of complex II, linking respiratory chain with tricarboxylic acid cycle, in...
متن کاملEpidermal growth factor: high and low molecular weight forms.
In crude homogenates of the submaxillary gland of the male mouse, epidermal growth factor (EGF) activity was found almost entirely in a high molecular weight complex (about 74,000 daltons). This high molecular weight form may be reversibly dissociated into EGF and an EGF-binding protein. EGF was found to have a molecular weight of approximately 6400. The EGF-binding protein has a molecular weig...
متن کاملAdrenocorticotropic action of antidiuretic hormone.
By means of direct arterial perfusion of the adrenal glands of the hypophysectomized dog, it has been shown that synthetic lysine, arginine and acetyl arginine vasopressins stimulate the adrenal cortex directly to secrete hydrocortisone. Pressor activity and cortisol-stimulating activity were demonstrated to be independent of each other. Similar polypeptides, such as oxytocin, insulin, glucagon...
