[Determining the motility of glycoprotein oligosaccharides from lymphocyte membranes using the spin label method].

Splenocyte glycoproteins solubilized by papain were purified on lectyl-lectin Sepharose 4B. Glycoproteins eluted from lectin were spin-labeled at carbohydrates. Quantitative evaluation of ESR spectra of spin-labeled glycoproteins pointed to strong restriction of reorientation of the spin label bound to oligosaccharides. Calculated correlation time of relaxing volume tagged with the spin label was equal to the molecular weight about 6000-7000 dalton. This value suggests the existence of flexibility of the glycoproteins studied.

[Structural studies of human IgA1 and IgA2 immunoglobulins labeled with two different spin labels].

The spin-label method was used for structural study of different subclasses of human immunoglobulin A. The spin label was incorporated into the protein part, as well as into carbohydrates of the IgA molecules. Well resolved outer wide extrema were characteristic of the ESR spectra of IgA spin-labeled at the protein moiety. ESR spectra of IgA tagged at carbohydrates reflected moderately immobilized rotation of the spin label. Dependencies of the parameters of ESR spectra of spin-labeled IgA1 and IgA2 upon viscosity at constant temperature have been investigated and a quantitative analysis of the isotherms was carried out. Spin-labeled oligosaccharide chains of IgA2 possessed great freedom of rotation. At least some of IgA1 oligosaccharides were closely attached to the protein moiety. Both proteins under study have shown flexible structure. The Fc fragment of IgA1 molecule appeared to have a rigid structure.
