Lateral diffusion of phospholipids in the plasma membrane of soybean protoplasts: Evidence for membrane lipid domains.
Fluorescent lipid and phospholipid probes were incorporated at 4 degrees C into soybean protoplasts prepared from cultured soybean (SB-1) cells. Fluorescence microscopy showed that the plasma membrane as well as the nucleus were labeled. Fluorescence redistribution after photobleaching (FRAP) analysis was performed on these cells at 18 degrees C to monitor the lateral mobility of the incorporat...
متن کاملLateral diffusion of membrane proteins.
We measured the lateral mobility of integral membrane proteins reconstituted in giant unilamellar vesicles (GUVs), using fluorescence correlation spectroscopy. Receptor, channel, and transporter proteins with 1-36 transmembrane segments (lateral radii ranging from 0.5 to 4 nm) and a alpha-helical peptide (radius of 0.5 nm) were fluorescently labeled and incorporated into GUVs. At low protein-to...
متن کاملEffect of Membrane Potential on Lateral Diffusion
The rate of appearance , in a populat ion of mouse-human heterokaryons , of cells with intermixed mouse and human surface antigens may be used to estimate the rate of lateral diffusion of the antigens in a single cell. Most he terokaryons appear to restrict diffusion of their surface antigens. These restrictions are altered by exposing either he terokaryons or their parent cells to conditions t...
متن کاملLateral diffusion of phospholipids in a vesicle membrane.
Nuclear-resonance spectra of phosphatidylcholine (PC) vesicles are broadened by spin-labeled PC. The broadening of the N-methyl proton line is proportional to spin-labeled PC concentration; the broadening by 1 molecule in 100 of spin-labeled PC is 9.7 Hz at 35 degrees C; the broadening is not due to collisions between vesicles, exchange of spin label between vesicles, or fusion of vesicles. The...
متن کاملLateral diffusion of rhodopsin in photoreceptor membrane: a reappraisal
PURPOSE In a series of works between 1972 and 1984, it was established that rhodopsin undergoes rotational and lateral Brownian motion in the plane of photoreceptor membrane. The concept of free movement of proteins of phototransduction cascade is an essential principle of the present scheme of vertebrate phototransduction. This has recently been challenged by findings that show that in certain...
