Exposed proteins of cultured chick and human fibroblasts were labeled by lactoperoxidase-catalyzed iodination and analyzed by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in sodium dodecyl sulfate. Extracts from both cell types contained the characteristic, heavily labeled band of fibronectin (MW = 2.2 .times. 105) were analyzed after reduction with 2-mercaptoethanol. Without prior reduction the 2.2 .times. 105 MW band was missing and replaced by labeled bands of 4.4 .times. 105 and of very high molecular weight. Fibroblast cell-surface fibronectin, like the fibronectin purified from plasma, is apparently composed of 2 high molecular weight polypeptides held together by disulfide bonds; the dimer may in addition form disulfide-bonded multimers.
