Abstract

Intact HeLa cells and isolated HeLa cell plasma membranes were subjected to lactoperoxidase-catalysed iodination. The 125I-labelled proteins were separated by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Six protein species with apparent molecular weights from 32 000 to 200 000 were accessible to labelling from the outer cell surface, while most of the proteins present in the plasma membrane were labelled when isolated plasma membranes were iodinated. Iodination of synchronized intact cells revealed that the labelling obtained was cell cycle dependent with maximal labelling at mitosis. No changes in the distribution of radioactivity among the labelled proteins were observed when cells from different phases were iodinated.
