A temperature-sensitive mutant of Chinese hamster fibroblasts with a defect in glycoprotein synthesis is investigated after transfection and amplification of the gene for the human EGF receptor. We demonstrate that at the nonpermissive temperature a partially glycosylated species of the receptor accumulates in the endoplasmic reticulum. The oligosaccharides present are the high mannose types, since they can be removed completely by treatment with endoglycosidase H. Pulse-chase experiments show that the abnormal species of the receptor cannot be chased to a form that is either resistant to endoglycosidase H, or altered in its mobility on SDS polyacrylamide gels. The abnormal species of the receptor appears within the first hour of a shift to the nonpermissive temperature, and no further changes are observed upon prolonged incubation of cells at 40 degrees C. However, after 3-4 hours immunoprecipitations of the receptor yield another protein, which has properties very similar, if not identical, to the glucose-regulated protein GRP78. The induction of this protein at 40 degrees C can be suppressed completely with an inhibitor of RNA synthesis, without any effect on the glycosylation defect, or on the accumulation of the EGF receptor in the endoplasmic reticulum.

D004721 Endoplasmic Reticulum A system of cisternae in the CYTOPLASM of many cells. In places the endoplasmic reticulum is continuous with the plasma membrane (CELL MEMBRANE) or outer membrane of the nuclear envelope. If the outer surfaces of the endoplasmic reticulum membranes are coated with ribosomes, the endoplasmic reticulum is said to be rough-surfaced (ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM, ROUGH); otherwise it is said to be smooth-surfaced (ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM, SMOOTH).
