Glycosidase and phosphatase activities in U-937 and some clones and sublines. 1988

National Bacteriological Laboratory, Stockholm, Sweden.

1. The activities of nine glycosidases, lysozyme and acid and alkaline phosphatases were compared in the histiocytic lymphoma cell line U-937 and a set of clones and sublines derived from this line. 2. The patterns of the different enzyme activities and selected enzyme ratios have been used as a method to distinguish between different clones and sublines. 3. Sublines with high lysozyme levels were rich in most cell-bound glycosidases. 4. During long-term growth distinct enzyme patterns of individual lines were preserved. 5. The enzyme pattern during a cell culture growth cycle was basically stable.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D009113 Muramidase A basic enzyme that is present in saliva, tears, egg white, and many animal fluids. It functions as an antibacterial agent. The enzyme catalyzes the hydrolysis of 1,4-beta-linkages between N-acetylmuramic acid and N-acetyl-D-glucosamine residues in peptidoglycan and between N-acetyl-D-glucosamine residues in chitodextrin.

D002999 Clone Cells A group of genetically identical cells all descended from a single common ancestral cell by mitosis in eukaryotes or by binary fission in prokaryotes. Clone cells also include populations of recombinant DNA molecules all carrying the same inserted sequence.

D016403 Lymphoma, Large B-Cell, Diffuse Malignant lymphoma composed of large B lymphoid cells whose nuclear size can exceed normal macrophage nuclei, or more than twice the size of a normal lymphocyte. The pattern is predominantly diffuse. Most of these lymphomas represent the malignant counterpart of B-lymphocytes at midstage in the process of differentiation.
