Abstract The incorporation of [3H]glucosamine, [3H]mannose, and [35S]methionine into rhodopsin was investigated in retinas which had been incubated in the presence and absence of the antibiotic, tunicamycin. In its presence, the incorporation of glucosamine was inhibited 70% and mannose, 96% compared to controls. In the presence of tunicamycin the attachment of glucosamine to core-region sites was virtually eliminated. The formation of unglycosylated rhodopsin was also indicated by sodium… CONTINUE READING
