Localization of the ASV src gene product to the plasma membrane of transformed cells by electron microscopic immunocytochemistry. 总被引:73,自引:0,他引:73
The cellular location of the src gene product (p60src) of the Schmidt-Ruppin strain of avian sarcoma virus has been determined by electron microscopic immunocytochemistry in Schmidt-Ruppin ASV-transformed NRK cells, and the amount of the protein in different regions of the cell has been quantified. The protein is concentrated on the inner surface of the plasma membrane, particularly under ruffles, and it is highly concentrated on the inner surface of the membrane near junctions connecting adjacent cells. Small amounts of p60src were detected in the cytoplasm and in the perinuclear Golgi region of the cell. No significant localization was detected in control NRK cells or in NRK cells transformed by the Kirsten strain of murine sarcoma virus. The presence of p60src on the inner surface of the plasma membrane indicates that the changes in cell growth, cell shape and cell membrane structure noted in ASV-transformed cells are due to an initial action of p60src at the cell membrane. 相似文献

Using a rat monoclonal antibody directed against the p21 src protein of the Harvey strain of Murine Sarcoma Virus (MSV), we have examined the reactivity of human cells in tissue culture using immunofluorescence and electron microscopy. Qualitative results indicated that untransformed mouse and human fibroblastic cells have undetectable amounts of p21; these levels were greatly increased after transformation with Harvey MSV. A group of human tumor cell lines adapted to tissue culture were examined and almost all of the epithelial tumor lines showed significant localization with this antibody. Notable exceptions were two melanoma cell lines which were negative for p21 by immunofluorescence. When normal human epithelial cells derived from esophageal or foreskin epithelium were examined, the antibody showed significant reactivity with subconfluent growing cells. After the normal cells were allowed to become quiescent, the reactivity with this antibody decreased. All of the localization seen by fluorescence was in a distribution consistent with the previously demonstrated location of p21 scr on the inner aspect of the plasma membrane. Electron microscope localization showed labeling for this antigen on the inner surface of the plasma membrane in both transformed mouse cells and in the human tumor cell lines MCF-7 and HTB-2 (RT4). These results suggest that the amounts of p21-like proteins detectable in human epithelial tumor cells do not necessarily reflect their malignant potential, but may be related to their epithelial nature. The loss of detectable localization at quiescence suggests that p21 levels decrease when these epithelial cells stop growing, and raises the possibility that an analog of p21 may be used by these human epithelial cells to regulate cell growth. 相似文献

We have recently described an intracellular protein, p21, in nonproducer cells transformed by either the Kirsten (Ki-MSV) or Harvey (Ha-MSV) strain of murine sarcoma virus (Shih et al., Virology, in press). The p21 is phosphorylated and has been shown to be coded for by either Ki-MSV or Ha-MSV. In this report, we compare the thermal stability of the newly synthesized [35S]methionine-labeled p21 in cells transformed by the wild-type Ki-MSV or by a mutant of Ki-MSV (ts 371) which is temperature sensitive in a viral function required for the maintenance of several properties of the transformed phenotype. The immunoprecipitability of the p21 coded for by the ts 371 Ki-MSV was markedly more thermolabile than the p21 of the wild-type Ki-MSV when the cell extracts are heated in vitro. The present finding suggests that the p21 is required for the maintenance of transformation induced by Ki-MSV. 相似文献

The intracellular localization of pp60src and src protein kinase activity in avian sarcoma virus (ASV)-infected chicken embryo fibroblasts and transformed and morphologically reverted field vole cells was examined by subcellular fractionation procedures. Fractionation by differential centrifugation of Dounce-homogenized cellular extracts prepared from vole cells showed that 83 to 91% of pp60src sedimented with particulate subcellular components from both transformed and revertant vole cells. A slightly lesser amount (60 to 70%) of pp60src was found associated with the particulate fraction from ASV-infected chicken embryo fibroblasts. The distribution of src protein kinase activity in the cytosol and particulate cell fractions was identical to that of pp60src, indicating no detectable differences in the activity of cytosol- and particulate-associated pp60src. When subcellular components of the cell were fractionated by discontinuous sucrose gradient centrifugation, similar amounts of both pp60src and src protein kinase activity cosedimented with the plasma membrane fractions from both transformed and revertant vole cells, as well as from ASV-infected chicken embryo fibroblasts. src protein kinase activity associated with plasma membrane fractions prepared from vole cells and ASV-infected chicken embryo fibroblasts was resistant to extraction with high salt concentrations, but partial elution was achieved with nonionic detergent. Thus, in both transformed and morphologically reverted vole cells, pp60src is intimately associated with the plasma membrane. Since transforming virus can be rescued from revertant vole cells by fusion to chicken embryo fibroblasts, revertant vole cell pp60src is capable of inducing morphological transformation. Thus, although the data presented herein suggest that transformation requires the association of pp60src with the plasma membrane, the binding of pp60src to the plasma membrane per se is insufficient to induce morphological transformation and requires the additional interaction with a specific target membrane protein which appears to be defective in revertant vole cells. 相似文献

The influence of daunorubicin (DNR) on survival of human normal (S-126) and trisomic, with respect to chromosome 21 (T-164; S-240), skin fibroblasts and some parameters related to it, such as intracellular drug accumulation, distribution and interaction with cell membrane, were studied. The in vitro growth-inhibition assay indicated that DNR was less cytotoxic for trisomic than for normal cells. Comparison of kinetic parameters and intracellular distribution of this compound showed that the uptake and the amount of intracellular free DNR were greater in normal than in trisomic cells. Contrary to this, there were no significant differences between the amount of DNA-bound drug in both types of cells. TMA-DPH and 12-AS fluorescence anisotropy measurements demonstrated that DNR decreased lipid fluidity in the inner hydrophobic region of plasma membrane in both cell types, but did not influence the fluidity of the outer surface of membrane. We conclude that fibroblasts derived from individuals affected with Down's syndrome are better protected from the damage induced by DNR than normal cells. 相似文献

Abstract. Prosomes (Proteasomes/Multicatalytic proteinase (MCP)-complexes) are protein particles built of 28 subunits in variable composition, having proteinase activity. We have studied the changes in prosomal subunits p29K, p31K and the highly expressed p23K during the differentiation of U937 cells. Control cells had little prosomal subunit p31K in the cytoplasm, while p29K antigen was detected in both the nucleus and cytoplasm; more p23K antigen was found in the cytoplasm than in the nucleus. Flow cytometry demonstrated a biphasic intracellular decrease in prosomes during differentiation induced by phorbol-myristic-acetate (PMA) and retinoic acid plus 1,25-dihydroxycholecalciferol (RA + VD). p23K and p29K decreased both in the cytoplasm and the nucleus of differentiated cells, though the p23K antigen was concentrated near vesicles and the plasma membrane in PMA-induced cells. The p31K antigens disappeared from RA + VD-induced cells, while in PMA-induced cells, cytoplasmic labelling was unchanged and nuclear labelling was increased. Small amounts of prosomal proteins p23K and p29K were found on the outer membrane of un-induced cells. While there was no labelling on the outer membrane of RA + VD-induced cells, p23K protein increased on the plasma membrane of PMA-induced cells. The prosome-like particle protein p21K was not present to any significant extent in the intracellular compartment of control or induced cells; however, p21K was detected on the outer surface of control cells and was increased only in PMA-induced cells. The culture medium of control and induced cells contained no p21K, p23K, p29K or p31K. RA + VD seemed to induce a general decrease of prosomal subunits within the cells and at the outer surface, whereas PMA caused a migration toward the plasma membrane and an increase at the outer surface. These changes in the distribution and type of prosomes in RA + VD- and PMA-induced cells indicate that prosomes may play a part in differentiation, especially p23K which is the most highly expressed protein among those studied and presents the more important changes. 相似文献

Cellular location of ganglioside-sialidase activity was determined in confluent hamster embryo fibroblasts transformed with herpes simplex virus type 2. Approximately equal specific activities of ganglioside-sialidase activity were found to be associated with the crude lysosomal and crude plasma membrane fractions isolated from whole cell homogenates. Whole transformed cells hydrolyzed exogenous ganglioside substrate, suggesting a partial location of the cellular sialidase on the outer surface of the plasma membrane of these cells. Intact cells were treated with the diazonium salt of sulfanilic acid, a nonpenetrating reagent inhibitory to ecto-enzymes (DePierre, J.W., and M. L. Karnovsky. 1974. J. Biol. Chem. 249:7111-7120). Cytoplasmic lactate dehydrogenase activity was not inhibited by this treatment, and mitochondrial succinate dehydrogenase activity was inhibited only 10%, indicating that intracellular enzymes were not affected. 5'-Nucleotidase activity was diminished 90%, and sialidase very rapidly lost 40% of its exogenously directed activity. These results show that, in herpes simplex virus-transformed fibroblasts, ganglioside-sialidase is both a lysosomal and a plasma membrane enzyme. The plasma membrane sialidase is capable of acting on endogenous plasma membrane sialolipids and also functions in the cultured transformed cell as an ecto-enzyme which can attack exogenous substrates. 相似文献

The intracellular distribution of p39, a 39,000-dalton substrate for a number of tyrosine protein kinases, has been determined by indirect immunofluorescence microscopy. No binding of anti-p39 antibodies to intact cells was observed, indicating that this protein is not accessible to antibody on the cell surface. Following detergent permeabilization of formaldehyde-fixed cells, a reasonably uniform cytoplasmic labeling was observed. This fluorescence was most pronounced in membrane ruffles, especially in the leading lamellae of migrating cells, and in areas of cell-cell contact. Brief permeabilization of cells with detergent prior to formaldehyde fixation resulted in the appearance of a reticular lattice. An identical staining pattern was observed when fluorescently-labeled lectins were used as plasma membrane markers, but not when antibodies to a variety of cytoskeletal proteins were used. Taken together, these results indicate that p39 is, at least in part, located at the cytoplasmic surface of the plasma membrane. Immunolabeling of Rous sarcoma virus- transformed cells with anti-p39 antibodies resulted in fluorescent staining patterns indistinguishable from those observed in untransformed cells. It is conceivable that p39 plays some structural role within a protein network underlying the plasma membrane. 相似文献

We have isolated eight rat lymphocyte-myeloma hybrid cell lines producing monoclonal antibodies that react with the 21,000-dalton transforming protein (p21) encoded by the v-ras gene of Harvey murine sarcoma virus (Ha-MuSV). These antibodies specifically immunoprecipitate both phosphorylated and non-phosphorylated forms of p21 from lysates of cells transformed by Ha-MuSV. All eight react with the products of closely related ras genes expressed in cells transformed by two additional sarcoma viruses (rat sarcoma virus and BALB sarcoma virus) or by a cellular Harvey-ras gene placed under the control of a viral promoter. Three of the antibodies also react strongly with the p21 encoded by the v-ras gene of Kirsten MuSV. These same three antibodies immunoprecipitate the predominant p21 species synthesized normally in a variety of rodent cell lines, including the p21 produced at high levels in 416B murine hemopoietic cells. This suggests that an endogenous gene closely related to Kirsten-ras is expressed in these cells. The monoclonal antibodies have been used to confirm two properties associated with p21; localization at the inner surface of the membrane of Ha-MuSV-transformed cells, assayed by immunofluorescence microscopy, and binding of guanine nucleotides. 相似文献

Monoclonal antibodies to the p15 and p12 gag proteins were used to detect the P120gag-abl transforming protein of Abelson murine leukemia virus in nonproductively transformed normal rat kidney fibroblast cells. The results demonstrate that, in addition to the prominent plasma membrane location, P120gag-abl was associated with points of adhesion between the cell and the substratum. The localization of P120gag-abl was qualitatively similar to that reported for pp60src in the same normal rat kidney fibroblast cells and suggests that these transforming proteins may share some common transformation features. 相似文献

Immunofluorescence on avian sarcoma virus-transformed cells: localization of the src gene product. 总被引:46,自引:0,他引:46
L R Rohrschneider 《Cell》1979,16(1):11-24
The localization of the avian sarcoma virus src gene product (termed p60src) was examined by indirect immunofluorescence in cells transformed by the Schmidt-Ruppin strain of Rous sarcoma virus, subgroup D (SR-RSV-D). Antiserum to p60src was obtained from rabbits bearing SR-RSV-D-induced tumors, and immunofluorescence was performed on chicken embryo fibroblasts (CEF) transformed with SR-RSV-D, as well as normal rat kidney (NRK) cells transformed by the same virus (termed SR-RK cells). Both acetone and formaldehyde fixation were used for the immunofluorescence tests. The specificity of the anti-tumor serum was first demonstrated in both cell systems by gel electrophoresis of immunoprecipitates prepared from 35S--methionine-labeled cells. Anti-tumor serum precipitated p60src from SR-RSV-D-transformed CEF but not from CEF infected with a transformation-defective mutant of SR-RSV-D. All viral structural proteins and precursors contained in these immunoprecipitates could be eliminated by competition with unlabeled virus. Similar experiments on SR-RK cells indicated that no viral proteins other than p60src were expressed in these cells, and this observation was supported by immunofluorescence tests using antiserum to whole virus. For immunofluorescence localization of p60src, reactions with viral structural proteins were blocked with unlabeled virus. This presaturation step, obligatory for p60src detection in the SR-RSV-D-transformed CEF, was unnecessary when antitumor serum was tested on SR-RK cells, since p60src was the only viral protein detectable in these cells. With acetone-fixed cells, p60src-specific immunofluorescence revealed a characteristic fluorescence pattern which was similar in both cell systems. The principal pattern was diffuse and situated in the cytoplasm. A clear nuclear fluorescence was never observed. Immunofluorescence on formaldehyde-fixed cells also indicated the cytoplasmic location of p60src and revealed a specific subcytoplasmic concentration of the fluorescence. With both fixation methods, an additional fluorescence pattern was seen between cells in contact, and was also found in both SR-RK cells and SR-RSV-D-transformed CEF. Immunofluorescence on viable cells suggested that p60src was not on the surface of these transformed cells. The fluorescence patterns were specific for avian sarcoma virus-transformed cells and were not found in uninfected cells, cells infected with a transformation-defective mutant of SR-RSV-D or cells transformed by an antigenically unrelated murine sarcoma virus. Furthermore, anti-tumor serum did not contain antibodies to proteins of the microtubules or intermediate filaments. 相似文献

Modulation of adenylate cyclase by guanine nucleotides and Kirsten sarcoma virus mediated transformation 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
D Saltarelli S Fischer G Gacon 《Biochemical and biophysical research communications》1985,127(1):318-325
Certain tumour cells contain activated ras genes that code for 21 000 dalton proteins (p21). These proteins associate with the inner face of the plasma membrane and bind guanine nucleotides specifically. In order to determine whether p21s have functions similar to other GTP binding proteins, we investigated the regulation, by guanine nucleotides, of adenylate cyclase (AC) activity in membrane preparations isolated from fibroblasts (C127) transformed by a temperature sensitive mutant of Kirsten sarcoma virus (Ts 371). The degree of AC stimulation by GMP P(NH)P increased when these cells were shifted from the permissive temperature (33 degrees C) to the non-permissive temperature (39 degrees C). This effect was more pronounced at low Mg++ and low GMP P(NH)P concentrations. AC stimulation remained unchanged in rat fibroblasts infected with a temperature sensitive mutant of Rous Sarcoma virus. AC activity was depressed in C127 cells infected with wild type KiMSV. Our data illustrate the feasibility of correlating alterations in the AC system with ras gene expression and using such experimental approaches to elucidate the physiological functions of the p21 proteins. 相似文献

Summary A soybean agglutinin was found to agglutinate mouse, rat and human cell lines transformed by viral carcinogens, but not hamster cells transformed by viral or non-viral carcinogens. Normal cells from which the transformed cells were derived were not agglutinated by this agglutinin, but they were rendered agglutinable after short incubation with trypsin or pronase. The transformed hamster cells, on the other hand, became agglutinable only after prolonged treatment with pronase. The agglutination was specifically inhibited by N-acetyl-d-galactosamine, indicating that N-acetyl-d-galactosamine-like saccharides are part of the receptor sites for soybean agglutinin on the surface membrane. Such sites exist in a cryptic form in normal cells; they are exposed in transformed mouse, rat and human cells, but become less accessible in transformed hamster cells. The receptor sites for soybean agglutinin differ from the receptors for two other plant agglutinins (wheat germ agglutinin that interacts with N-acetyl-d-glucosamine-like sites and Concanavalin A that interacts with -d-glucopyranoside-like sites) which become exposed upon transformation of all lines tested. In normal hamster cells, the receptors for all three agglutinins become exposed after incubation with trypsin, but the exposure of N-acetyl-d-galactosamine-like sites requires the longest enzyme treatment. The results indicate a difference in the location of different carbohydrate-containing sites in the surface membrane. The differences in the exposure of carbohydrate-containing sites in the membrane could not be correlated with the levels of carbohydrate-splitting glycosidases in normal and transformed cells. 相似文献

Three benzenoid ansamycin antibiotics (herbimycin, macbecin, and geldanamycin) were found to reduce the intracellular phosphorylation of p60src at a permissive temperature (33 degrees C) in a rat kidney cell line infected with a temperature-sensitive mutant of Rous sarcoma virus. This effect was accompanied by morphological changes from the transformed to the normal phenotype. The filamentous staining pattern of actin fibers was observed in the cells treated with these antibiotics at 33 degrees C. Removal of the antibiotics allowed the cells to revert to the transformed morphology. Ansamitocin, another benzenoid ansamycin, and naphthalenoid ansamycins such as streptovaricin and rifamycins did not show this effect. Pulse-labeling of the antibiotic-treated cultures with 32Pi showed a marked reduction of 32P radioactivity incorporated into p60src. A parallel experiment with [35S]methionine showed that synthesis of p60src was slightly inhibited. The immune complex prepared by mixing the herbimycin-treated cell extracts with antibody against p60src was inactive in vitro in phosphorylating the complex itself. On the contrary, the immune complex derived from untreated cells was active in vitro even in the presence of the antibiotics. These results suggest that benzoquinonoid ansamycins have no direct effect on src kinase but destroy its intracellular environment, resulting in an irreversible alteration of p60src and loss of catalytic activity. 相似文献

Role of cytoplasmic ATP in the restoration and maintenance of a membrane permeability barrier in transformed mammalian cells 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
N R Makan 《Journal of cellular physiology》1979,101(3):481-492
Addition of ATP to medium surrounding intact, transformed 3T3 cells activates the formation of aqueous channels in the plasma membrane. This results in efflux of nucleotide pools and ions and entry into the cytosol of charged, phosphorylated species. In such permeabilized cells, glycolysis is totally dependent on the external addition of glucose, inorganic phosphate, ADP, K+, Mg2+ and NAD+ which restore lactic acid formation to levels found in untreated cells. As expected, such reconstitution of glycolytic activity is found to restore intracellular ATP levels. This is accompanied by sealing of the membrane channels so that efflux of nucleotide pools ceases. Pyruvate, a substrate for mitochondrial ATP synthesis, when provided along with ADP and inorganic phosphate also produces sealing of the membrane channels. On the other hand, reactivation of pentose phosphate shunt activity, which does not lead to ATP synthesis, does not induce restoration of the membrane permeability barrier. Furthermore, compounds which lower the internal ATP pool prevent sealing, and also render the plasma membrane more sensitive to external ATP (Rozengurt and Heppel, '79). Sealing of aqueous channels following restoration of the internal ATP pool is associated with phosphorylation of the inner membrane surface, and is unaffected by inhibitors of protein synthesis, microfilament or microtubular assembly. These results indicate the probable role of intracellular ATP in the restoration and/or maintenance of an active membrane barrier against efflux of small molecules and ions in transformed 3T3 cells. 相似文献

Polarity is a central feature of eukaryotic cells and phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate (PtdIns(3,4,5)P3) has a central role in the polarization of neurons and chemotaxing cells. In polarized epithelial cells, PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 is stably localized at the basolateral plasma membrane, but excluded from the apical plasma membrane, as shown by localization of GFP fused to the PtdIns(3,4,5)P3-binding pleckstrin-homology domain of Akt (GFP-PH-Akt), a fusion protein that indicates the location of PtdIns(3,4,5)P3. Here, we ectopically inserted exogenous PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 into the apical plasma membrane of polarized Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells. Within 5 min many cells formed protrusions that extended above the apical surface. These protrusions contained basolateral plasma membrane proteins and excluded apical proteins, indicating that their plasma membrane was transformed from apical to basolateral. Addition of PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 to the basolateral surface of MDCK cells grown as cysts caused basolateral protrusions. MDCK cells grown in the presence of a phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase inhibitor had abnormally short lateral surfaces, indicating that PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 regulates the formation of the basolateral surface. 相似文献

Summary Enzyme cytochemical and immunocytochemical techniques at the light and electron microscope levels were used to study the distribution of potential markers of chemical transformation in rodent bladders. In rat tumours induced byin vivo treatment with methylnitrosourea, alkaline phosphatase localization was normal on the external surface of the plasma membranes of some cells but abnormal in others where reaction product was seen only on intracellular membranes. 5-Nucleotidase localization was abnormal in all cells, being seen on endoplasmic reticulum and nuclear membranes only, while in normal bladders only ectoenzyme localization was seen. Heterogeneity of alkaline phosphatase and 5-nucleotidase localization was seen on the plasma membranes of these tumours after 15 days in organ culture. Some cells produced enzyme and others did not; in other cells only parts of the membrane reacted heavily, while other regions were negative.In transformed cell cultures and tumours of mouse bladder derived byin vitro treatment of explants with dimethylbenz (a) anthracene, a bimodal pattern of alkaline phosphatase localization was seen. Cells had either normal ectoenzyme reaction product or abnormal intracellular membrane reaction product. 5-Nucleotidase and ADPase were lost after transformation while cAMP-phosphodiesterase was retained as an ectoenzyme. Mg.ATPase and a cAMP-independent, calcium-insensitive protein phosphatase were induced in transformed cell cultures. An epithelial antigen was detected in the cytoplasm of both normal and transformed cells associated with reticular cytoplasmic ground substance, plasma membrane vesicles and cytoskeletal elements. 相似文献

Fusion of cultured dog kidney (MDCK) cells: I. Technique,fate of plasma membranes and of cell nuclei

Summary The evaluation of the intracellular signal train and its regulatory function in controlling transepithelial transport with electrophysiological methods often requires intracellular measurements with microelectrodes. However, multiple impalements in epithelial cells are hampered by the small size of the cells. In an attempt to avoid these problems we fused cells of an established cell line, Madin Darby canine kidney cells, originally derived from dog kidney, to giant cells by applying a modified polyethylene glycol method. During trypsin-induced detachment from the ground of the petri dish, individual cells grown in a monolayer incorporate volume and mainly lose basolateral plasma membrane by extrusion. By isovolumetric cell-to-cell fusion, spherical giant cells are formed within 2 hr. During this process a major part of the individual cell plasma membranes is internalized. Over three weeks following cell plasma membrane fusion degradation of single cell nuclei and cell nuclear fusion occurs. We conclude that this experimental approach opens the possibility to investigate ion transport of epithelia in culture by somatic cell genetic techniques. 相似文献

In the mammalian kidney renal medullary cells use organic osmolytessuch as sorbitol, myo-inositol, glycerophosphorylcholine, betaine,and taurine to adjust their intracellular osmolarity (and therebytheir volume) to rapid and drastic changes in extracellularosmolarity. Using an immortalized cell line derived from rabbitthick ascending limb of Henle's loop (TALH cells) and primarycultures of rat inner medullary collecting duct (IMCD cells)the membrane transport systems activated during exposure tohypotonicity were investigated. In TALH cells an increase insorbitol permeability of the (luminal) plasma membrane occursby activation of a channel-like transporter involving a calcium/calmodulin-dependentprotein kinase. A similar system seems to operate in IMCD cells.In addition, the latter cells possess a swelling-activated anionchannel that is also permeable for taurine and myo-inositoland inhibited by "anion channel" blockers, such as NPPB andDIDS. The sorbitol permeability of the plasma membrane appearsto be furthermore regulated by a transient insertion of activetransporters into the basolateral cell surface by a membranerecycling mechanism. 相似文献

Trafficking of an acylated cytosolic protein: newly synthesized p56(lck) travels to the plasma membrane via the exocytic pathway

The Src-related tyrosine kinase p56(lck) (Lck) is primarily expressed in T lymphocytes where it localizes to the cytosolic side of the plasma membrane and associates with the T cell coreceptors CD4 and CD8. As a model for acylated proteins, we studied how this localization of Lck is achieved. We followed newly synthesized Lck by pulse-chase analysis and found that membrane association of Lck starts soon after synthesis, but is not complete until at least 30-45 min later. Membrane-binding kinetics are similar in CD4/CD8-positive and CD4/CD8-negative cells. In CD4-positive T cells, the interaction with CD4 rapidly follows membrane association of Lck. Studying the route via which Lck travels from its site of synthesis to the plasma membrane, we found that: CD4 associates with Lck within 10 min of synthesis, long before CD4 has reached the plasma membrane; Lck associates with intracellular CD4 early after synthesis and with cell surface CD4 at later times; and transport of CD4-bound Lck to the plasma membrane is inhibited by Brefeldin A. These data indicate that the initial association of newly synthesized Lck with CD4, and therefore with membranes, occurs on intracellular membranes of the exocytic pathway. From this location Lck is transported to the plasma membrane. 相似文献
