title: [Biological and immunological studies on human tumor-associated cellular proteins detected by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis].
abstract: Two tumor-associated cellular proteins, 82k/6.3 (MW/pI) and 61k/7.5, which were detected by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis, were studied by biochemical and immunological methods. In two-dimensional gel electrophoresis, 82k/6.3 and 61k/7.5 were rich in colon cancer tissue compared with normal colon mucosa, and they were also detected in fetal intestines. This shows that both proteins might be involved in category of oncofetal proteins. The localization of 82k/6.3 and 61k/7.5 was investigated by subcellular fractionation. They were rich in microsomal fraction, but not found in both nuclear and mitochondrial fractions. In binding reaction with seven kinds of lectins, 82k/6.3 reacted with RCAI, DBA and WGA, where 61k/7.5 reacted with RCAI, DBA, WGA, UEAI and SBA. Transferrin reacted with only RCAI. Each hybrid producing monoclonal antibody against 82k/6.3 or 61k/7.5 was generated by fusing spleen cells of BALB/c mice immunized by the two proteins and mouse myeloma cells. Each monoclonal antibody was specified in enzyme-linked immunoassay. In indirect immuno-fluorescent studies, monoclonal antibodies against 82k/6.3 and 61k/7.5 reacted with cytoplasma and membrane of human cancer cells. This result strongly suggests the localization of the two proteins demonstrated by subcellular fractionation.
