The surface proteins of Thy-l positive mouse lymphomas and Thy-l negative variants were labeled by lactoperoxidase-catalyzed iodination and characterized by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in the presence of sodium dodecylsulphate and by immunological studies. The loss of the serologitally defined Thy-l antigenic determinant correlated with the absence of a radioactive band corresponding to a T lymphocyte-specific surface glycoprotein, T25, on autoradiographs of the iodinated proteins of Thy-l negative variants. Reexpression of Thy-l on hybrid cells derived from fusions of complementary Thy-l negative variants correlated with the reappearance of T25. Quantitative absorption studies using an antiserum which specifically recognized T25 confirmed that the Thy-l negative variants have no detectable T25 (to. 03 of that of the Thy-l positive lines) on their surface.Biosynthetic labeling studies revealed that none of the Thy-l negative variants synthesized T25. However, synthesis of an immunologically crossreactive molecule could be detected in two variants. On the basis of these results, we propose a model which describes a possible structure of the Thy-l antigenic determinant and explains the biochemical nature of the genetic lesions leading to the loss of Thy-l in these variants.
