摘要
Granulocyte and macrophage colony-stimulating factors obtained from cultured mouse mammary carcinoma FM3A cells showed heterogeneity in molecular size giving rise to a major component with an apparent MW of 80,000 and a minor one with that of 35,000 on Sephadex G-200 column chromatography. In the presence of tunicamycin, a specific inhibitor of asparagine-linked glycosylation, the colony-stimulating factor was produced normally and consisted of a single component with an apparent MW of 30,000. These data indicate that the sugar moiety is not essential for the production or activity of colony-stimulating factor and that the heterogeneity in molecular size of the colony-stimulating factor mainly resulted from tunicamycin-sensitive glycosylation.
