T-lymphocyte heterogeneity: wheat germ agglutinin labeling of transmembrane glycoproteins.
We have recently described "fracture-label" techniques that permit direct cytochemical labeling of freeze-fractured cells. We report here the use of fracture-labeling to investigate the distribution and partition of wheat germ agglutinin (WGA) receptor sites over the protoplasmic and exoplasmic plasma membrane faces of freeze-fractured human thymus-derived (T) lymphocytes. All exoplasmic faces ...
متن کاملWheat Germ Agglutinin
Procedures for the isolation, purification, and crystallization of wheat germ agglutinin are described. The agglutinin was purified 184-fold to homogeneity from commercial wheat germ lipase. A molecular weight of 23,500 was estimated for the protein by means of sedimentation equilibrium and sodium dodecyl sulfate gel electrophoresis. The agghxtinin is a glycoprotein. Amino acid and carbohydrate...
متن کاملFractionation of human T lymphocytes on wheat germ agglutinin-sepharose
T cells from human peripheral blood was purified by fractionation on columns charged with human immunoglobulin and rabbit anti-human immuno-globulin. When assayed with 125I- or fluorescein isothiocyanate-labeled wheat-germ agglutinin (WGA), a weakly binding and a strongly binding subpopulation could be distinguished. These T-cell subpopulations were fractionated on columns charged with WGA, con...
متن کاملCarbohydrate changes in glycoproteins of a poorly metastasizing wheat germ agglutinin-resistant melanoma clone.
Glycoproteins of a metastasizing line of B16 mouse melanoma and a poorly metastasizing wheat germ agglutinin-resistant clone were compared. Cell surface proteins and glycoproteins were isotopically labeled by lactoperoxidase-catalyzed iodination and by NaB3H4 reduction after oxidation by periodate or galactose oxidase and subsequently analyzed by gel electrophoresis and autoradiography. Differe...
متن کاملImmunocytochemical localization of wheat germ agglutinin in wheat
Immunocytological techniques were developed to localize the plant lectin, wheat germ agglutinin (WGA), in the tissues and cells of wheat plants. In a previous study we demonstrated with a radioimmunoassay that the lectin is present in wheat embryos and adult plants both in the roots and at the base of the stem. We have now found, using rhodamine, peroxidase, and ferritin-labeled secondary antib...
