Abstract

1. Radioactive iodide was covalently bound to living cells from normal mouse spleen and a variety of lymphoid tumours by a system consisting of lactoperoxidase, hydrogen peroxide and iodide. 2. About 3×105−6×105 molecules of [125I]iodide/cell could be incorporated without affecting cell viability. 3. Electron-micrographic radioautography showed that the radioactive label was associated with the outer surfaces of the cells. 4. Radioiodinated proteins were solubilized in 9m-urea–0.2m-mercaptoethanol and analysed by gel-filtration and disc electrophoresis. 5. Comparison of distinct tumour lines by disc electrophoresis showed qualitative and quantitative differences in protein distribution patterns.
