Abstract:
:Polyclonal antibodies were raised in chickens to the glycosylated forms of the high (H), medium (M) and low (L) molecular mass (MM) mouse tectorins. In the mouse cochlea, all three antibodies stained the tectorial membrane. Antibodies raised to HMM tectorin also stained the hair bundles of both inner and outer hair cells. A number of other mouse tissues were screened with the anti-tectorin antibodies to look for similar or antigenically related molecules. Staining was not observed in any other tissue type with the antibodies directed against the MMM and LMM tectorins. In the nose, the anti-HMM tectorin antibodies stained Bowman's glands and the mucus layer overlying the olfactory epithelium. The surface of the adjacent respiratory epithelium was not stained by these antibodies. HMM tectorin can be specifically radiolabelled by injecting neonatal mice with 35SO4 and undergoes a shift in electrophoretic mobility following treatment with keratanase, an endo-beta-galactosidase from Pseudomonas. However, when centrifuged on shallow CsCl gradients HMM tectorin has a buoyant density similar to that of glycoproteins and does not behave as a typical cartilage type proteoglycan. HMM tectorin does not react with mab 5D4, a monoclonal antibody that recognises keratan sulphate glycosaminoglycan from corneal and skeletal muscle proteoglycan. Unlike antibodies to HMM tectorin, mab 5D4 selectively stains the upper surface of the tectorial membrane, Hensen's stripe and the mucus layer overlying the respiratory epithelium. These studies indicate that the MMM and LMM tectorins may be unique to the cochlea, and that HMM may be a "light' keratan sulphate proteoglycan that is antigenically related to either the mucins or a more specific component of the olfactory mucus layer.
