Abstract: | The two different regions of the plasma membrane, i.e. apical and basolateral membranes, of intestinal epithelial cells were analyzed as to their proten components. They showed very contrasting profiles on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The apical membranes possessed several major components with apparent molecular weights larger than 108 000, most of which were also periodic acid-Schiff reagent positive. In contrast, there were no protein components with corresponding molecular weights in the basolateral membrane. The electrophoretic profile of the latter was strinkingly simple. The dominant band was assigned a molecular weight of 101 000 and was periodic acid-Schiff reagent negative. No major components were shared by the two membranes. |
