Fig. 1. GFP-fusion proteins and their treatment with PI-PLC. (A) In the fusion constructs GFP-FR and GFP-PrP, GFP is fused to the GPI-anchor attachment signal of folate receptor (FR) and prion protein (PrP), respectively. The FR or PrP sequence included in the fusion proteins is shown. The
-site is shown in red. (B) MDCK cells stably expressing GFP-FR or GFP-PrP were extracted with Triton X-114. After phase separation, detergent phases were incubated in the presence (+) or absence (–) of PI-PLC (15 µg/ml) as previously described (Lisanti et al., 1989). The resulting aqueous phases were precipitated with trichloroacetic acid and detected by western blotting using anti-GFP antibody. As previously shown, the band migrating at 43 kDa represents a partially denatured dimer of GFP (Paladino et al., 2004).
