## Abstract Proteins of approximately 10,000 daltons (presumably metallothionein) and greater than 75,000 daltons bound ^64^Cu when this metal was added to fibroblast lysates. Treatment with either 2βmercaptoethanol or the disodium salt of ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid demonstrated that the high
On DEAE cellulose column chromatography, alpha-L-iduronidase in cultured skin fibroblasts was resolved into two distinct components, forms A and B. They had similar Km values for 4-methylumbelliferyl-alpha-L-iduronide, but differed in pH optima and thermal stability. Form B was more heat-stable than
A patient is described with typical skin lesions of lichen myxedematosus and IgG-type lambda paraproteinemia. Fibroblasts cultured from the skin of the patient and from the skin of control persons were used to study glycosaminoglycan and collagen synthesis; the cultures were labelled with SHglucosam
