Membrane glycoproteins of Philly mouse lens.
The Philly mouse is a new model for genetic cataracts, in which there is an apparent defect in lens membrane permeability. This abnormality results in electrolyte imbalance and lens hydration, typical of an osmotic cataract. Since membrane glycoproteins are believed to be involved in transport processes, we have studied the changes in these polypeptides in the Philly mouse lens during cataract ...
متن کاملSpatial orientation of glycoproteins in membranes of rat liver rough microsomes. I. Localization of lectin-binding sites in microsomal membranes
Carbohydrate-containing structures in rat liver rough microsomes (RM) were localized and characterized using iodinated lectins of defined specificity. Binding of [125I]Con A increased six- to sevenfold in the presence of low DOC (0.04--0.05%) which opens the vesicles and allows the penetration of the lectins. On the other hand, binding of [125I]WGA and [125I]RCA increased only slightly when the...
متن کاملOcular Structural Glycoproteins
From the ocular connective tissues, relatively pure structural glycoproteins (SGP) are extractable by means of 8 m urea after trichloroacetic acid treatment. The SGP from corneal stroma (CSGP) and from sclera (SSGP) show considerable immunochemical similarities and are not related to SGP from anterior lens capsule (LSGP). An antiserum directed against the total connective tissue fraction of cor...

متن کاملEffects of Gnidilatimonoein, from Daphne mucronata, on the plasma membrane glycoproteins in two cancerous cell lines
Metastasis describes the ability of a tumor to invade normal tissue and generate secondary tumors at sites distant from the primary tumor. The mechanism responsible for the inhibition of tumor metastasis by different agents is at least partly associated with the ability to interfere with cellular functions such as adhesiveness, motility and invasiveness. Certainly effective treatment of metasta...
