Summary

It is concluded that: 1) the serine- and threonine-rich region of the LDL receptor is the site for addition of clustered O-linked carbohydrates; 2) the receptor contains a small number of isolated chains of O- linked carbohydrates in addition to the clustered chains; and 3) the clustered O -linked carbohydrates are not essential for LDL receptor function in cultured hamster fibroblasts.
