Abstract:
The reactions of 8 lectins with tracheal epithelial goblet cells of Rhesus monkeyshowed the heterogeneity of the cells.The heterogeneity appeared on the differentcomposition of sugar chains in the secretory mucin.The mucin of all goblet cellscontained unequal amount of terminal ?-D-galactose,?-D-mannose and sialic acid aswell as pre-terminal-?-D-galactose and/or ?-D-galactose-(1→3)-N-acetylgalactosa-mine.Only part of goblet cells had variable amount of ?-L-fucose in the secretorymucin.The compositions of sugar chains of the secretory mucin between monkeyand human have significant difference.
