Sro7-HA
3
p from yeast extracts binds preferentially to GTPγS-Sec4p. (A) Expression of SRO7-HA
3 suppresses the cold sensitivity of an sro7Δ sro77Δ strain. Wild-type (WT), sro7Δ sro77Δ, and SRO7-HA
3 sro77Δ yeast strains were spotted in 10-fold dilutions onto YPD media plates and grown at the indicated temperatures. (B) Extracts of a wild-type or SRO7-HA
3 strain (HA) were subjected to Western blot analysis using an α-HA antibody. Ponceau staining is shown as a loading control. (C) Sro7-HA3p binds preferentially to GTPγS-Sec4p. GST-Sec4 (Sec4), GST-Ypt1 (Ypt1), or GST immobilized on glutathione beads were incubated with an extract of an SRO7-HA
3 strain, and copurifying proteins were subjected to Western blot analysis using the indicated antibodies. GST-Sec4p and GST-Ypt1p were either stripped of nucleotide (NF) or loaded with GTPγS (GTP) or GDP. Ponceau staining of the Western blot is shown as a loading control. The input lanes represent 0.2 and 0.3%, respectively.
