The effect of chemical modification of arginine and lysine residues of fibronectin on its antigenic and gelatin-binding activity was studied by enzyme immunoassay techniques. Both modifications strongly reduced the gelatin-binding activity. Using conformation-specific antibodies it was shown that modification of lysines caused extensive conformational changes in the molecule. No such changes could be detected in arginine-modified fibronectin. The results suggest that arginine residues are directly involved in the binding of fibronectin to gelatin. Lysine residues seem to be important for maintaining a native conformation necessary for gelatin-binding.
