Transient hyperglycosylation of rhodopsin with galactose 1991-10-31 .txt text/plain 8560 468 58 Following subcellular fractionation of retinas, ConA purified rhodopsin from ROS was applied to one of two additional lectin columns: Ricinus communis agglutinin (RCA) or Griffonia simplicifolia I (GSA). To radiolabel existing galactose moieties on rhodopsin, bovine ROS purified by a discontinuous sucrose density gradient procedure, were subjected to enzymatic treatment with galactose oxidase followed by a reduction with tritium labeled sodium borohydride. In this method, ConA purified rhodopsin or in some cases the clarified extract of ROS from six rat retinas labeled with [35S]methionine was applied to columns of either Ricinus communis agglutinin I (RCA) or GrifSonia simplicijolia I (GSA), specific for P-linked or a-linked galactose residues, respectively. Rats injected intravitreally with [35S]methionine were maintained in darkness for 2 hr at which time 12 retinas were collected for subcellular fractionation and rhodopsin purification by ConA sepharose chromatography. ./cache/cord-268527-wbfnhedy.txt ./txt/cord-268527-wbfnhedy.txt
