The presence of hydrophobic sites in fetuin, ovine submaxillary mucin and two homogeneous canine tracheal mucins was established by fluorescence probe techniques. The interaction between the above-mentioned glycoproteins and two hydrophobic fluorescent compounds, sodium mansate and mansylphenylalanine, was accompanied by an enhancement in fluorescence and a shift of the fluorescence maxima to shorter wavelengths. The introduction of a phenylalanine residue to the mansyl group enhanced the binding affinity of the probe for the hydrophobic sites of these glycoproteins as evidenced by lower values for the dissociation constants. The high molecular weight (581 600) tracheal mucin, which had the highest carbohydrate content (80%) of all the glycoproteins investigated, exhibited the highest fluorescence enhancement and the largest number of binding sites for these fluorescent probes.
