Description:
Immunoglobulins to monogalactosyl diglyceride have been found in antisera to different chloroplast preparations. A specific antiserum to this lipid has been obtained by injection of monogalactosyl diglyceride which was adsorbed onto methylated bovine serum albumin. Inhibition tests with mono- and oligosaccharides, as well as with mono- and digalactosyl glycerol, showed that the immunoglobulin was directed to the β-galactosyl-(1 → 1) -glycerol configuration. Digalactosyl diglyceride and sulphoquinovosyl diglyceride did not react with the antiserum. The immunoglobulin is of the Ig M-type. The antiserum to monogalactosyl diglyceride agglutinates stroma-freed chloroplasts. Fragments of the thylakoid membrane, obtained by ultrasonication and fractioning centrifugation, thylakoids and thylakoid stacks are all precipitated. In a preparation of stroma-containing chloroplasts agglutination takes place but after rupture of the chloroplast membrane and loss of the stroma. The ultrasonicated lamellar system binds a larger amount of the monogalactosyl diglyceride immunoglobulins than does stroma-freed chloroplasts. It is concluded from these experiments that some of the chloroplasts monogalactosyl diglyceride is located at the surface of the thylakoids.
