Abstract

When treated with retinoic acidin vivo, C6 glioma cells show an enhancement of CMP-Neu5Ac:Galβ 1–3 GalNAc-R α-2,3 sialyltransferase activity. A 300kDa glycoprotein was detected by lectin affinoblotting in retinoic acid-treated C6 cells which stained weakly or not at all in control cells. Comparative studies with different lectins demonstrated that this glycoprotein contains α2,3 Neu5Ac Gal-GalNAc O-glycan moieties. Cultures in the presence of an inhibitor of O-glycan synthesis (N-acetylgalactosaminide α-O-benzyl) demonstrated that enhancement of staining of the 300 kDa glycoprotein was not due to the increase of the α2,3 sialyltransferase but to thede novo synthesis of the polypeptide chain of this glycoprotein.
