Abstract excerpt
We have previously isolated a lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-resistant mutant (named LR-9) of a cultured macrophage-like cell line, J774.1. This mutant had defective LPS binding [Hara-Kuge, S., Amano, F., Nishijima, M., and Akamatsu, Y. (1990) J. Biol. Chem. 265, 6606-6610]. In this study, we found that: (1) LPS-binding to parental J774.1 cells was dependent on a serum factor with a molecular weight of about 60 kDa,...
