1. We investigated the membranes of human erythrocytes which completely lack the blood-group antigens S and s (denoted as S-s-) as part of a study of the structure and function of the surface glycoproteins of the human erythrocyte. 2. The S-s-erythrocyte-membrane glycoprotein PAS-3 band was much less intensely stained in comparison with that of the glycoprotein from normal erythrocyte membranes. The S-s-membrane glycoprotein PAS-4 band also showed decreased staining. 3. Examination with the lectins from Maclura aurantiaca (Osage orange) and Arachis hypogaea (groundnut) showed that the PAS-3 glycoprotein of S-s-erythrocyte membranes lacked the receptors for these lectins that are present on glycoprotein PAS-3 from normal erythrocytes. 4. Radioiodination with lactoperoxidase showed the presence of the polypeptide of glycoprotein PAS-3 in S-s-cells, although it was more weakly labelled than the protein in the normal erythrocyte. 5. Our results show that the PAS-3 glycoprotein of S-s-erythrocytes is deficient in some of the carbohydrates present in the protein from normal erythrocytes. Glycoprotein PAS-4 of normal erythrocytes is shown to be a complex containing both glycoproteins PAS-1 and PAS-3.

More than ten new types of gangliosides, in addition to haematoside and sialosylparagloboside, were isolated from human erythrocyte membranes. These were separated by successive chromatographies on DEAE-Sephadex, on porous silica-gel columns and on thin-layer silica gel as acetylated compounds. Highly potent blood-group-Ii and moderate blood-group-H activities were demonstrated in some of the ganglioside fractions. The gangliosides incorporated into cholesterol/phosphatidylcholine liposomes stoicheiometrically inhibited binding of anti-(blood-group I and i) antibodies to a radioiodinated blood-group-Ii-active glycoprotein. The fraction with the highest blood-group-I-activity, I(g) fraction, behaved like sialosyl-deca- to -dodeca-glycosylceramides on t.l.c. Certain blood-group-I and most of the -i determinants were in partially or completely cryptic form and could be unmasked by sialidase treatment. Thus the I and i antigens, which are known to occur on internal structures of blood-group-ABH-active glycoproteins in secretions, also occur in the interior of the carbohydrate chains of erythrocyte gangliosides.
