The interaction of the bovine cation-independent mannose 6-phosphate receptor with a variety of phosphorylated ligands has been studied using equilibrium dialysis and immobilized receptor to measure ligand binding. The dissociation constants for mannose 6-phosphate, pentamannose phosphate, bovine testes beta-galactosidase, and a high mannose oligosaccharide with two phosphomonoesters were 7 X 10(-6) M, 6 X 10(-6) M, 2 X 10(-8) M, and 2 X 10(-9) M, and the mol of ligand bound/mol of receptor monomer were 2.17, 1.85, 0.9, and 1.0, respectively. We conclude that the cation-independent mannose 6-phosphate receptor has two mannose 6-phosphate-binding sites/polypeptide chain.
