In this study, we clarify the structural aspects of the oligosaccharides associated with the alpha 1-adrenergic receptor in two muscle cell lines. Photoaffinity labelling of intact BC3H1 or DDT1 muscle cells with 2-[4-(4-azido-3-[125I]iodobenzoyl)piperazin-1-yl]-4-amino-6, 7-dimethoxyquinazoline ([125I]azidoprazosin) followed by SDS/polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis (PAGE) and autoradiography revealed specifically labelled proteins of molecular mass = 87,000 and 81,000, respectively. Treatment of photoaffinity-labelled receptors in DDT1 cells with 33 u. of endoglycosidase F/ml for 24 h resulted in the loss of the 81 kDa receptor and the appearance of a 52.5 kDa protein. When lower concentrations of glycosidase or shorter incubation times were used, the 81 kDa receptor was converted to a 66 kDa protein. Treatment of the photoaffinity-labelled BC3H1 receptor with endoglycosidase F resulted in the appearance of a 50.5 kDa protein. Neither alpha-mannosidase nor endoglycosidase H had an effect on the photoaffinity labelling patterns of the receptor from the two cell types. alpha 1-Adrenergic receptors, solubilized from membranes prepared from BC3H1 and DDT1 cells, bound to wheat germ agglutinin-Sepharose and were displaced by N-acetylglucosamine. Taken together, these results indicate that alpha 1-adrenergic receptors in BC3H1 and DDT1 cells contain complex, but not high, mannose oligosaccharide chains; differences in the composition or number of chains partially accounts for the different molecular mass of the receptor in the two cell lines. The results further indicate that the oligosaccharide chains contribute substantially to the apparent molecular mass of alpha 1-adrenergic receptors, as detected by SDS/PAGE, and that the protein backbone of these receptors is likely to be approximately 50 kDa.
