Instability of coated vesicles in concentrated sucrose solutions.

Abstract: A method ofpreparing homogeneous coated vesicles that eliminates the high sucrose concentrations heretofore used is presented. It is shown that sucrose at high concentrations dissociates the coat from coated vesicles. This reaction can explain the presence of empty coats observed with preparations obtained with high concentrations of sucrose. The protein and membrane lipid components have been analyzed by the intrinsic tryptophan and extrinsic diphenylhexatriene fluorescence, respectively. Analysis of mixtures… Show more

“…1). This difference may be explained by the differing protocols used by these laboratories to prepare and assay their vesicle preparations, since it is known that the coat structure is sensitive to high sucrose concentrations during centrifugation (22) and that the change in specificity of the vesicle kinase described in this report is correlated with an increase in turbidity suggestive of aggregation. Polyethylene glycol (Mr 3700) at 10% (wt/vol) final concentration did not induce CAP2 phosphorylation (data not shown).…”

“…Preparation of Clathrin-coated Vesicles-Coated vesicles were prepared from NIH 3T3 cells expressing either receptor grown to near confluence or primary rat neurons cultured for 72 h using a 2 H 2 O, 8% sucrose gradient (30). Cells were washed twice with PBS and once with MES buffer (100 mM MES, pH 6.5, 1 mM EGTA, 0.5 mM MgCl 2 , 3 mM NaN 3 , Complete TM proteinase inhibitor mixture).…”

“…Isolation of Clathrin-coated Vesicles and Purification of Hsc70 -Clathrin-coated vesicles were prepared from fresh calf brains according to the procedure of P. Nandi et al (32). Isolated clathrin-coated vesicles were stored at 4°C at a clathrin concentration of 15 M. Bovine brain Hsc70 was prepared as described previously (28).…”
