The nature of the antigenic specificities of several antigens associated with the T/t complex in the mouse were analyzed by means of glycosidase and haptene inhibition studies. Results indicate that on testicular cells sugar residues are involved in at least six different T/t antigenic determinants. The immunodominant sugar appears to be different for each of the specificities. The specificity for the following T/t antigens resides predominantly in the sugars indicated: T:sialic acid; t12:beta-D-galactose; tw32:beta-D-galactose; t0:L-fucose; tw1:N-acetyl-D-galactosamine; tw18:L-fucose. It seems probable that these sugars are found at the terminal reducing ends of the carbohydrate portion of T/t-bearing moleculse. These studies imply that at least some of the genes in the T locus code for glycosyltransferases or regulators of glycosyltransferases which modigy oligosaccharide structures and impart specificity to the T/t antigens by alteration of their terminal sugar residues.
