What is Characteristics of Membrane and Cytosol Forms of the Mammary Tumor Glycoprotein Molecule Mtgp in Human Breast Carcinoma Cell Cultures and Tumors about?

## Abstract The presence, concentration and selected molecular characteristics of the human mammary carcinoma glycoprotein molecule set **MTGP**, a trace and apparently tumor‐specific molecule, were examined in fifteen cell cultures established from mammary carcinomas, tissue from seven mammary carcinomas and control cultures. Both cytosol and membrane‐associated forms of **MTGP** were analyzed, and each was phenotyped by reference to isoelectric point and buoyant density. All cells or tissues of mammary carcinoma origin contained membrane **MTGP**, whereas cytosol **MTGP** was undetectable in cell cultures from half of the mammary carcinomas. Neither membrane nor cytosol **MTGP** were detectable in cells other than mammary carcinomas. Cytosol **MTGP** could be assigned to three groups by reference to presence, isoelectric point and buoyant density. Membrane **MTGP** also exhibited heterogeneity between different tumors and could be assigned to three groups by isoelectric point and buoyant density. Each form of **MTGP** was homogeneous for a given single tumor or cell culture and retained its phenotypic features with passage and cloning. Four general types of **MTGP** are proposed,
