Abstract
The effect of cancer-associated galactosyltransferase acceptor (CAGA) on incorporation of a variety of macromolecular precursors has been studied in transformed and nontransformed cells. Incorporation of [3H]-mannose, [3H]-galactose, and [3H]-glucosamine into acid precipitable material after one-hour pulse was inhibited more than 70% within four hours after exposure to CAGA in polyoma-transformed BHK cells and within eight hours after exposure in chick embryo fibroblasts infected with a temperature-sensitive RSV mutant (Ts68) grown at the permissive temperature (CEF-RSV 37 degrees C). Initial short-term rate of uptake (less than one minute) and total long-term uptake (one hour) of the labelled carbohydrates (acid-soluble and acid-insoluble material) was inhibited less than 15% over this period. Incorporation of 14C-leucine, 3H-serine, 3H-uridine, and 3H-thymidine into acid-precipitable material was also inhibited greater than 85% in transformed cells, but more than 12-hour exposure to CAGA was required before maximal inhibition was detected. Uptake of these labelled precursors was inhibited less than 20% up to eight hours after exposure to CAGA. In nontransformed cells (BHK and CEF) incorporation of labelled monosaccharides as ...Continue Reading
