title: Heterogeneity of cholecystokinin receptors in pancreas.
abstract: Specific labeling of a major Mr 85-95 K protein was obtained using the SH, NH2 heterobifunctional cross-linker m-maleimidobenzoyl N-hydroxysuccinimide ester (MBS) to affinity label cholecystokinin (CCK) receptors on rat pancreatic plasma membranes, pancreatic acinar cells and acinar cell tumor membranes with 125I-CCK-33. Endoglycosidase F (endo F) digestion of this species in gel slices indicated that at least two components were present which contain N-linked glycans. The smaller protein of Mr approximately 85 K was digested by endo F to a final product of approximately Mr 62 K while the larger Mr approximately 95 K protein generated two endo F products of Mr 55 K and Mr 43 K. These findings suggest that the receptor for CCK on pancreatic acinar cells exhibits an oligomeric structure, possessing two distinct CCK-binding proteins.
