Abstract:
:Fibronectin was isolated from human placenta tissues and compared with human plasma fibronectin. Placenta and plasma fibronectins had similar amino acid compositions, immunological properties, and cell attachment-promoting activities, but differed in apparent molecular weight on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, which could be accounted for at least partly by the difference in carbohydrate composition. Unlike plasma fibronectin, placenta fibronectin failed to form a precipitin line with concanavalin A in a double diffusion system. The non- or low-reactivity of placenta fibronectin with this lectin was also demonstrated by affinity chromatography with concanavalin A-agarose, in which more than 90% of the radiolabeled glycopeptides derived from placenta fibronectin was not retained on the gel. The two fibronectins also differed in the reactivity with Lens culinaris agglutinin of their glycopeptide fractions. These data indicate that placenta and plasma fibronectins are different in their carbohydrate structures and, therefore, suggest the presence of a tissue- or cell-specific mechanism for processing the carbohydrates of this glycoprotein.
