Molecular association of two neural cell adhesion molecules within the surface membrane of cultured mouse neuroblastoma cells.
The neural cell adhesion molecule L1 can be induced by antibodies in indirect immunofluorescence procedures to co-redistribute on the surface membrane of cultured mouse neuroblastoma cells with the 180 kDa component of N-CAM, but not with the 140 kDa component of N-CAM, the H-2 histocompatibility antigen or antigens recognized by polyspecific antibodies to mouse liver membranes. These observations indicate a differential and close molecular association between L1 and the N-CAM component with the larger intracellular domain.
