Let M be a Γ-ring with right operator ring R. We define one-sided ideals of M and show that there is a one-to-one correspondence between the prime left ideals of M and R and hence that the prime radical of M is the intersection of its prime left ideals. It is shown that if M has left and right unities, then M is left Noetherian if and only if every prime left ideal of M is finitely generated, thus extending a result of Michler for rings to Γ-rings.

Bi-ideals and quasi-ideals of M are defined, and their relationships with corresponding structures in R are established. Analogies of various results for rings are obtained for Γ-rings. In particular we show that M is regular if and only if every bi-ideal of M is semi-prime.
