Abstract
The surface IgM of Daudi Burkitt lymphoma cells has been shown to consist of μ chains and x chains covalently linked, by disulfide bonding, to a novel polypeptide chain of approximate molecular weight 33 000. This novel polypeptide chain (P33) is similar in several properties to the heavy chain of the Ia antigen: glycoprotein nature; apparent molecular weight; isoelectric behavior and cysteine content. The linkage of P33 to surface immunoglobulin has not been observed with any other human lymphoma or lymphoblastoid cell lines.This publication has 20 references indexed in Scilit:
