Figure 1. A two-step subcellular fractionation procedure for separation of late endosomes and DCG. (A) Distribution of intracellular compartments from PC12 cells on 116% Ficoll gradients. PC12 cells expressing ssHRPP-selectin were loaded with 3H-Dopamine, or labeled with 125I-Trn or 125I-EGF as described in Materials and Methods. Cells were homogenized in HB and the PNS was centrifuged on 116% Ficoll gradients and fractionated. The early/recycling endosomes are shown by the distribution of 125I-Trn endocytosed for 60 min at 37°C (
). Late endosomes are shown by the distribution of 125I-EGF internalized for 20 min at 37°C (
). The distribution of NAGA activity (OD420 nm;
), HRP activity (OD450 nm; ), and 3H-Dopamine radioactivity (filled plus signs) along 116% Ficoll gradients are shown. (B) Separation of DCG and late endosomes on a secondary 0.91.85 M sucrose gradient. Fractions 1420 from the 116% Ficoll gradients were pooled, diluted with HB, and recentrifuged on 0.91.85 M sucrose gradients to equilibrium. The distributions of NAGA activity (
), HRP activity (), 3H-Dopamine radioactivity (filled plus signs), 125I-EGF internalized for 20 min at 37°C (
) and 125I-Trn (
) after centrifugation on this gradient are shown.
