Mediation of cell-cell adhesion via a Ca(2+)-dependent mechanism.\nDictyostelium discoideum cells express EDTA-sensitive cell-cell adhesion sites soon after the initiation of development and EDTA-resistant adhesion sites later at the aggregation stage. A glycoprotein of M(r) 24,000 (gp24) has been implicated in the mediation of the EDTA-sensitive type of intercellular cohesiveness (Knecht, D. A., Fuller, D. L., and Loomis, W. F. (1987) Dev. Biol. 121, 277-283). In this study, a relatively simple procedure was developed to purify gp24 to homogeneity. A highly specific rabbit antiserum was raised against gp24, and the localization of gp24 at the cell surface was shown by quantitative binding of the anti-gp24 antibodies to intact cells. To demonstrate the cell binding activity of gp24, the binding of solubilized gp24 to intact cells was examined. 125I-Labeled gp24 bound to cells in a dose-dependent and saturable manner, and the binding was displaced specifically by unlabeled gp24. Purified gp24 was capable of inhibiting the reassociation of dispersed cells previously undergoing EDTA-sensitive aggregation. Moreover, precoating cells with anti-gp24 IgG and Fab fragments blocked the binding of 125I-labeled gp24 to cells. Collectively, these in vitro assays provide direct evidence that gp24 is a cell adhesion molecule that most likely functions through a homophilic mode of interaction. The binding of gp24 to cells was sensitive to EGTA, suggesting that the activity of gp24 may involve calcium ions. Binding studies showed that 45Ca2+ could bind to gp24 blotted onto nitrocellulose membrane. In addition, preincubation of the native protein with calcium ions resulted in a shift in its gel mobility. It is therefore likely that gp24 mediates cell-cell interactions via a Ca(2+)-dependent mechanism, rendering gp24 the first cell adhesion molecule in D. discoideum to utilize a Ca(2+)-based adhesion system.","tracks":[{"project":"sentences","denotations":[{"id":"T1","span":{"begin":0,"end":80},"obj":"Sentence"},{"id":"T2","span":{"begin":81,"end":146},"obj":"Sentence"},{"id":"T3","span":{"begin":147,"end":332},"obj":"Sentence"},{"id":"T4","span":{"begin":333,"end":475},"obj":"Sentence"},{"id":"T5","span":{"begin":476,"end":490},"obj":"Sentence"},{"id":"T6","span":{"begin":491,"end":509},"obj":"Sentence"},{"id":"T7","span":{"begin":510,"end":524},"obj":"Sentence"},{"id":"T8","span":{"begin":525,"end":530},"obj":"Sentence"},{"id":"T9","span":{"begin":531,"end":545},"obj":"Sentence"},{"id":"T10","span":{"begin":546,"end":635},"obj":"Sentence"},{"id":"T11","span":{"begin":636,"end":823},"obj":"Sentence"},{"id":"T12","span":{"begin":824,"end":935},"obj":"Sentence"},{"id":"T13","span":{"begin":936,"end":1072},"obj":"Sentence"},{"id":"T14","span":{"begin":1073,"end":1199},"obj":"Sentence"},{"id":"T15","span":{"begin":1200,"end":1314},"obj":"Sentence"},{"id":"T16","span":{"begin":1315,"end":1481},"obj":"Sentence"},{"id":"T17","span":{"begin":1482,"end":1596},"obj":"Sentence"},{"id":"T18","span":{"begin":1597,"end":1688},"obj":"Sentence"},{"id":"T19","span":{"begin":1689,"end":1796},"obj":"Sentence"},{"id":"T20","span":{"begin":1797,"end":2003},"obj":"Sentence"},{"id":"T1","span":{"begin":0,"end":80},"obj":"Sentence"},{"id":"T2","span":{"begin":81,"end":146},"obj":"Sentence"},{"id":"T3","span":{"begin":147,"end":332},"obj":"Sentence"},{"id":"T4","span":{"begin":333,"end":475},"obj":"Sentence"},{"id":"T5","span":{"begin":476,"end":490},"obj":"Sentence"},{"id":"T6","span":{"begin":491,"end":509},"obj":"Sentence"},{"id":"T7","span":{"begin":510,"end":524},"obj":"Sentence"},{"id":"T8","span":{"begin":525,"end":530},"obj":"Sentence"},{"id":"T9","span":{"begin":531,"end":545},"obj":"Sentence"},{"id":"T10","span":{"begin":546,"end":635},"obj":"Sentence"},{"id":"T11","span":{"begin":636,"end":823},"obj":"Sentence"},{"id":"T12","span":{"begin":824,"end":935},"obj":"Sentence"},{"id":"T13","span":{"begin":936,"end":1072},"obj":"Sentence"},{"id":"T14","span":{"begin":1073,"end":1199},"obj":"Sentence"},{"id":"T15","span":{"begin":1200,"end":1314},"obj":"Sentence"},{"id":"T16","span":{"begin":1315,"end":1481},"obj":"Sentence"},{"id":"T17","span":{"begin":1482,"end":1596},"obj":"Sentence"},{"id":"T18","span":{"begin":1597,"end":1688},"obj":"Sentence"},{"id":"T19","span":{"begin":1689,"end":1796},"obj":"Sentence"},{"id":"T20","span":{"begin":1797,"end":2003},"obj":"Sentence"}],"namespaces":[{"prefix":"_base","uri":"http://pubannotation.org/ontology/tao.owl#"}],"attributes":[{"subj":"T1","pred":"source","obj":"sentences"},{"subj":"T2","pred":"source","obj":"sentences"},{"subj":"T3","pred":"source","obj":"sentences"},{"subj":"T4","pred":"source","obj":"sentences"},{"subj":"T5","pred":"source","obj":"sentences"},{"subj":"T6","pred":"source","obj":"sentences"},{"subj":"T7","pred":"source","obj":"sentences"},{"subj":"T8","pred":"source","obj":"sentences"},{"subj":"T9","pred":"source","obj":"sentences"},{"subj":"T10","pred":"source","obj":"sentences"},{"subj":"T11","pred":"source","obj":"sentences"},{"subj":"T12","pred":"source","obj":"sentences"},{"subj":"T13","pred":"source","obj":"sentences"},{"subj":"T14","pred":"source","obj":"sentences"},{"subj":"T15","pred":"source","obj":"sentences"},{"subj":"T16","pred":"source","obj":"sentences"},{"subj":"T17","pred":"source","obj":"sentences"},{"subj":"T18","pred":"source","obj":"sentences"},{"subj":"T19","pred":"source","obj":"sentences"},{"subj":"T20","pred":"source","obj":"sentences"},{"subj":"T1","pred":"source","obj":"sentences"},{"subj":"T2","pred":"source","obj":"sentences"},{"subj":"T3","pred":"source","obj":"sentences"},{"subj":"T4","pred":"source","obj":"sentences"},{"subj":"T5","pred":"source","obj":"sentences"},{"subj":"T6","pred":"source","obj":"sentences"},{"subj":"T7","pred":"source","obj":"sentences"},{"subj":"T8","pred":"source","obj":"sentences"},{"subj":"T9","pred":"source","obj":"sentences"},{"subj":"T10","pred":"source","obj":"sentences"},{"subj":"T11","pred":"source","obj":"sentences"},{"subj":"T12","pred":"source","obj":"sentences"},{"subj":"T13","pred":"source","obj":"sentences"},{"subj":"T14","pred":"source","obj":"sentences"},{"subj":"T15","pred":"source","obj":"sentences"},{"subj":"T16","pred":"source","obj":"sentences"},{"subj":"T17","pred":"source","obj":"sentences"},{"subj":"T18","pred":"source","obj":"sentences"},{"subj":"T19","pred":"source","obj":"sentences"},{"subj":"T20","pred":"source","obj":"sentences"}]},{"project":"Glycosmos6-MAT","denotations":[{"id":"T1","span":{"begin":301,"end":306},"obj":"http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/MAT_0000488"}],"attributes":[{"subj":"T1","pred":"source","obj":"Glycosmos6-MAT"}]},{"project":"NCBITAXON","denotations":[{"id":"T1","span":{"begin":55,"end":79},"obj":"OrganismTaxon"},{"id":"T2","span":{"begin":147,"end":171},"obj":"OrganismTaxon"}],"attributes":[{"id":"A1","pred":"db_id","subj":"T1","obj":"44689"},{"id":"A2","pr
