چکیده

It is generally believed that sphingomyelin- and cholesterol-enriched microdomains can be isolated as detergent-resistant membranes (DRMs) from plasma membrane and organelle membranes. Here, we describe the isolation and characterization of microdomains from sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) membranes. These SR-derived detergent-resistant membranes (SR-DRMs) enriched in sphingomyelin and cholesterol have a low buoyant density. Immunofluorescence microscopy of SR membranes shows the presence of caveolin-3 in the SR, known as a marker protein of caveolae at plasma membrane. We also demonstrated that significant amount of SERCAs together with caveolin-3 associates with SR-DRMs and are fully functional. Depletion of cholesterol caused the disruption of SR-DRMs.

Compartmentation of G-protein-coupled receptors and their signalling components in lipid rafts and caveolae.

G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) and post-GPCR signalling components are expressed at low overall abundance in plasma membranes, yet they evoke rapid, high-fidelity responses. Considerable evidence suggests that GPCR signalling components are organized together in membrane microdomains, in particular lipid rafts, enriched in cholesterol and sphingolipids, and caveolae, a subset of lipid raft...

Localization of cardiac sodium channels in caveolin-rich membrane domains: regulation of sodium current amplitude.

This study demonstrates that caveolae, omega-shaped membrane invaginations, are involved in cardiac sodium channel regulation by a mechanism involving the alpha subunit of the stimulatory heterotrimeric G-protein, Galpha(s), via stimulation of the cell surface beta-adrenergic receptor. Stimulation of beta-adrenergic receptors with 10 micromol/L isoproterenol in the presence of a protein kinase ...

Sphingomyelin-enriched microdomains at the Golgi complex.

Sphingomyelin- and cholesterol-enriched microdomains can be isolated as detergent-resistant membranes from total cell extracts (total-DRM). It is generally believed that this total-DRM represents microdomains of the plasma membrane. Here we describe the purification and detailed characterization of microdomains from Golgi membranes. These Golgi-derived detergent-insoluble complexes (GICs) have ...

CDP-diacylglycerol phospholipid synthesis in detergent-soluble, non-raft, membrane microdomains of the endoplasmic reticulum.

Phosphatidylinositol (PI) is essential for numerous cell functions and is generated by consecutive reactions catalyzed by CDP-diacylglycerol synthase (CDS) and PI synthase. In this study, we investigated the membrane organization of CDP-diacylglycerol synthesis. Separation of mildly disrupted A431 cell membranes on sucrose density gradients revealed cofractionation of CDS and PI synthase activi...

Thyroxine induced transformation in sarcoplasmic reticulum of rabbit soleus and psoas muscles.

The properties of the sarcoplasmic reticulum membranes isolated from slow-twitch type I soleus and fast-twitch type II psoas muscles of control and thyroxine treated rabbits were comparatively studied. Membrane yield, maximal calcium storing capacity, ATP-supported calcium uptake, calcium-dependent ATPase activity and calcium-dependent phosphoprotein formation were found to be 3-10 fold higher ...
