To demonstrate simultaneously how the solvation dynamics and rotational relaxation in nonionic micelles change with the composition of a gemini surfactant and how this change depends on spacer chain length of gemini surfactants.

Previous SEM studies of liver cytoskeletal elements have encountered technical difficulties such as variable metal coating and heat damage which occurs during metal deposition. The majority of studies involving evaluation of the cell cytoskeleton have been limited to cells which could be isolated, maintained in culture as a monolayer and thus easily extracted. Detergent extraction of excised tissue by immersion has often been unsatisfactory beyond the depth of several cells. These disadvantages have been avoided in the present study. Whole C3H mouse livers were perfused in situ with 0.5% Triton X-100 in a modified Jahn's buffer including protease inhibitors. Perfusion was continued for 1 to 2 hours at ambient temperature. The liver was then perfused with a 2% buffered gluteraldehyde solution. Liver samples including spontaneous tumors were then maintained in buffered gluteraldehyde for 2 hours. Samples were processed for SEM and TEM using the modified thicarbohydrazide procedure of Malich and Wilson, cryofractured, and critical point dried (CPD). Some samples were mechanically fractured after CPD.

SummaryHuman endothelial cells isolated from umbilical cordswere solubilized in Triton X-100 and examined by crossedimmunoelec-trophoresis using rabbit antiserum against endothelial cells. Endogenous labelling of the endothelialcell proteins with 14Cmannose followed by crossed immunoelectrophoresis and autoradiography revealed about 10 immunoprecipitates. Four of these endothelial cell glycoproteins were labelled by lactoperoxidase catalyzed iodination and thus were surface located. Three of the surface located glycoproteins showed reduced electrophoretic mobility after incubation of the endothelial cells with neuraminidase and were therefore sialoglycoproteins. Amphiphilicity of endothelial cell glycoproteins was studied by crossed hydrophobic interaction immunoelectrophoresis with phenyl-Sepharose in the intermediate gel. Amphiphilic proteins also show increasing electrophoretic migration velocity with decreasing concentration of Triton X-100 in the first dimension gels. Five of the endothelial cell glycoproteins were shown to be amphiphilic using these two techniques.Two monoclonal antibodies against the platelet glycoprotein complex Ilb-IIIa and glycoprotein IlIa, respectively, reacted with the same precipitate of endothelial cells. When a polyclonal antibody against the platelet glycoprotein complex Ilb-IIIa was incorporated into the intermediate gel the position of two endothelial cell precipitates were lowered. One of these was a sialoglycoprotein.

SummaryAdenine uptake into isolated platelet membranes had about the same Km (151 ± 21 • 9 nM) as uptake into intact cells (159 ± 21 nM) and was also competitively inhibited by papaverine and hypoxanthine. No uptake occurred at 0° and accumulated adenine was converted to AMP. AMP was not firmly bound to protein as judged by chromatography of triton X-100 solubilized membranes on Sephadex G25. The pH optimum for adenine uptake was at pH 5-5. Exogenous 5-phosphoribosyl-l-pyrophos- phate strongly stimulated uptake. These data may be explained by uptake of adenine by facilitated diffusion followed by conversion to AMP by adenine phosphoribosyltransferase but group translocation cannot be entirely excluded.

SummaryActin-binding protein (ABP) is degraded into fragments of 190 and 90 kDa by calpain. A monoclonal antibody (MAb TI10) against the 90 kDa fragment of ABP coprecipitated with the glycoprotein lb (GP lb) peak observed on crossed immunoelectrophoresis of Triton X-100 extracts of platelets prepared without calpain inhibitors. MAb PM6/317 against the 190 kDa fragment was not coprecipitated with the GP lb peak under such conditions. The 90 kDa fragment was adsorbed on protein A agarose from extracts that had been preincubated with antibodies to GP lb. This supports the idea that the GP Ib-ABP interaction resides in the 90 kDa region of ABP. GP lb was sedimented with the Triton-insoluble actin filaments in trace amounts only, and only after high speed centrifugation (100,000 × g, 3 h). Both the 190 kDa and the 90 kDa fragments of ABP were sedimented with the Triton-insoluble actin filaments.
