Abstract

The intracellular distribution of soluble blood group substance in hog gastric mucosa was investigated. The microsomal fraction contains 1-3% of the total intracellular blood group substance. Labeling experiments in vivo show this small pool to be newly synthesized material and the precursor of other intracellular pools. Attempts to detect a nucleotide-linked, fucose-containing oligosaccharide intermediate in the synthesis of the heterosaccharide chains of blood group substance were unsuccessful.
