Studies on the relationship between concanavalin A and SV40-transformed human fibroblasts.

The extent of binding of 125I-Con A to the surface of SV40-transformed human fibroblasts and the degree of agglutination of the cells by the native lectin have been measured. In addition, trypsinized and succinylated Con A have been used to study the effects of the lectin upon certain cell growth pa...

Sumario:The extent of binding of 125I-Con A to the surface of SV40-transformed human fibroblasts and the degree of agglutination of the cells by the native lectin have been measured. In addition, trypsinized and succinylated Con A have been used to study the effects of the lectin upon certain cell growth parameters. Trypsinized Con A was found to alter the growth rate, the saturation density and the contact inhibition of the transformed cells, an effect not neutralized by alph-methyl-D-mannoside. IMAGES:
