In plasma membrane glycoproteins of rat liver L-fucose undergoes a rapid intramolecular turnover in that fucose residues are removed from the glycoproteins (Tauber, R., Park, C.S. &amp; Reutter, W. (1983) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 80, 4026-4029). The present paper demonstrates that the intramolecular turnover of L-fucose is markedly decreased during liver regeneration. Turnover half-lives of L-fucose were measured in regenerating liver by pulse-chase experiments in five plasma membrane glycoproteins (Mr 60,000 (gp60), 80,000 (gp80), 120,000 (gp120), 140,000 (gp140), and 160,000 (gp160). The glycoproteins were isolated from plasma membranes by concanavalin A-Sepharose affinity chromatography and semipreparative NaDodSO4 polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. L-Fucose turned over in the five glycoproteins with heterogeneous half-lives ranging from 22 h (gp160) to 49 h (gp120). The protein moieties of the glycoproteins were degraded with half-lives ranging from 56 h (gp80) to 107 h (gp140). Relative to the half-life of the protein backbone the half-live of L-fucose was increased in the five membrane glycoproteins by 70% (gp60), 150% (gp80), 182% (gp120), 60% (gp140) and 16% (gp160) during liver regeneration when compared to normal liver. The data show that L-fucose turns over in different membrane glycoproteins with individual rates, and that loss of L-fucose from plasma membrane glycoproteins is reduced in rapidly proliferating liver after partial hepatectomy.
