From cells of a nullipotential line of embryonal carcinoma was isolated a membrane fraction enriched in the cell surface F9 antigen. More than 40% of the radioactive fucose and galactose incorporated by cells into nondialyzable material was recovered in this membrane preparation, corresponding to an approximately 10-fold purification of the labeled material. Extreme heterogeneity of membrane glycoproteins labeled with these sugars was revealed by sodium dodecyl sulfate gel electrophoresis. Glycopeptides prepared by extensive pronase digestion of membranes labeled with fucose or galactose showed properties similar to those already described for fucose-labeled glycopeptides from whole cells. Namely, large glycopeptides eluted near the excluded volume of Sephadex G-50 column were the predominant glycopeptide species, while complex glycopeptides of molecular weight around 2500 were minor components. Therefore, these large glycopeptides, characteristic of embryonal carcinoma cells, are derived mainly from a variety of glycoproteins closely associated with the membrane system, most probably cell-surface membrane of the cells. The large glycopeptides were also significantly labeled with glucosamine, but only slightly with mannose; major components of mannose-labeled glycopeptides from the membranes were high-mannose glycopeptides of low molecular weight. Several experiments excluded the possibility that the larg glycopeptides are mucopolysaccharides, glycolipids or mucin-type glycoproteins with short oligosaccharide chains.
