Abstract
The release of a portion of the cell coat of Ehrlich ascites cells by chelation with EDTA significantly modifies the uptake of various radioactive molecules. This phenomenon seems to be related to a change in the permeability of the cell membrane. The chemical analyses of the released material indicates that glycoproteins are involved in this change and their release modifies the structural and physiological characteristics of the cell membrane.Keywords
