英文摘要
The proposed research will improve methods for high-resolution electron
microscopy of macromolecules, and will pursue applications of these to
cogen biological problems.
Coating by thin tungsten films effectively contrasts macromolecular
substructure. Due to recent improvements in electron optics, grain size,
rather than instrumental factors, currently limits ultimate resolution.
Thus, we intend to produce fine-grain films which will fully exploit
available resolving power, and which will be suited to the inherently
high-contrast darkfield imaging mode. To this end we will explore use of
mixtures of refractory metals (which should limit possibilities for
crystalization and thus reduce crystallite size) and of low-temperature
specimens supports (which should favor film continuity). Effects of
solvent systems and drying conditions will also be studied. These
techniques will be applied to a number of macromolecular systems, including
hamster female protein, IgM from invertebrates, human lubricin, bronchial
mucins etc.
We plan applications of the electronmicroscopic mapping approach, in which
macromolecules are complexed with readily-resolvable, site-specific markers
to a number of problems. Chemically-defined sites on the fibrinogen
molecule, including the important region which binds factor XIII,
staphylococcin & blood platelets, will be located by complexing with
specifically-directed Fabs or with monoclonal antibodies. Positions of the
4 carbohydrate residues in this molecule will be determined by complexing
with specific lectins. Skeletal and cardiac myosin will be mapped with
specific Fabs directed against subregions of these molecules (S1, S2, light
chains & 50 kd & 25kd S1 subdomains) in order to elucidate topography of
the myosin head region. Positions of carbohydrate residues along
epiglycanin (a mouse mammary tumor cell-surface glycoprotein) will be
mapped by a series of specific lectins, and by rabbit & monoclonal IgG &
IgM. The latter will be used to determine the specificities of these
antibodies for epiglycanin, and for the monospecific site, respectively.
Certain other large glycoproteins will also be mapped.
We will characterize cardiac myosin in a combined physical-chemical and
electron microscopic study, as well as assessing the effects of light chain
removal on function and structure of myosin and its polymeric forms.
