Purification and immunofluorescent localization of rat submandibular mucin.
Rat submandibular mucin (RSM) was purified by acid precipitation, then alcohol precipitation of the 30000g supernatant of gland homogenate, followed by column chromatography on Sephadex G-200. The mucin, which was eluted in the void volume, had an amino acid profile typical of a salivary mucus glycoprotein with high proportions of threonine, serine and proline (48.8% of total amino acids), and ...
متن کاملMucin release and calcium fluxes in isolated rat submandibular acini.
A method is described for preparing isolated rat submandibular acini by collagenase digestion followed by mechanical dispersion. As assessed by Trypan Blue exclusion, phase contrast microscopy, ATP content and release of mucins and lactate dehydrogenase, the acini are morphologically and functionally intact. Secretory function of isolated acini was similar to that of intact tissue in terms of t...
متن کاملImmunofluorescent localization of a serine protease in rat small intestine.
An intracellular serine protease, which is believed to initiate the degradation of several intracellular pyridoxal phosphate-dependent enzymes, was localized by immunofluorescence in atypical mast cells of the lamina propria and in intraepithelial cells of the rat small intestine. Some mucus-secreting goblet cells also contained the protease antigen. Atypical mast cells containing the enzyme we...

K, ) but due to a 'switch off' of the rapid phase of the response. It was the first phase that was enhanced by CB. We therefore speculate that the initial burst of oxygen uptake is controlled by intracellular Ca2+, which may also interact with the microfilament system via gelsolin (Yin & Stossel, 1982). This would cause local solvation of the microfilament network, an effect which would be enha...
متن کاملBiosynthesis of a low-molecular-mass rat submandibular gland mucin glycoprotein in COS7 cells.
We have examined the biosynthesis of a low-molecular-mass mucin from rat submandibular gland (RSMG) expressed recombinantly in COS7 tissue culture cells, focusing primarily on the addition of carbohydrate to the protein core of the mucin. We find evidence for N-linked glycosylation, but this modification is not required for secretion of the mucin. Similarly, although the recombinant RSMG mucin,...
