Intestinal Epithelial Cell Surface Membrane Glycoprotein Synthesis
The cell surface membranes of mitotically active crypt cells from rat intestinal epithelium were found to have glycosyltransferase activities and endogenous acceptors not found on the differentiating villus cells. Rat intestinal epithelial cells were isolated as intact cells from different levels of the villus and crypt areas representing sequential stages of cellular differentiation. Incubatio...
متن کاملSAG: a Schwann cell membrane glycoprotein.
We report on characterization of a 170,000 Da glycoprotein found exclusively in the PNS. We refer to this protein as the Schwann cell membrane glycoprotein (SAG). SAG contains the HNK-1 carbohydrate, which is considered by some to be a marker of adhesion molecules. Its N-terminal sequence is not similar to previously known polypeptide sequences. SAG is found exclusively in the PNS, is present i...
متن کاملCrowding affects letters and symbols differently.
Five experiments examined crowding effects with letter and symbol stimuli. Experiments 1 through 3 compared 2-alternative forced-choice (2AFC) identification accuracy for isolated targets presented left and right of fixation with targets flanked either by 2 other items of the same category or a single item situated to the right or left of targets. Interference from flankers (crowding) was signi...
متن کاملGalectin-glycan lattices regulate cell-surface glycoprotein organization and signalling.
The formation of multivalent complexes of soluble galectins with glycoprotein receptors on the plasma membrane helps to organize glycoprotein assemblies on the surface of the cell. In some cell types, this formation of galectin-glycan lattices or scaffolds is critical for organizing plasma membrane domains, such as lipid rafts, or for targeted delivery of glycoproteins to the apical or basolate...
متن کاملMembrane fission by protein crowding.
Membrane fission, which facilitates compartmentalization of biological processes into discrete, membrane-bound volumes, is essential for cellular life. Proteins with specific structural features including constricting rings, helical scaffolds, and hydrophobic membrane insertions are thought to be the primary drivers of fission. In contrast, here we report a mechanism of fission that is independ...
