Expression and 125I-HA ligand binding of 190-HARE CD
mutants. Cells were grown to confluence, washed twice with cold PBS, and
centrifuged cell lysates (25 μg of protein) were subjected to SDS-PAGE and
electrotransfer. A, HARE protein was detected by Western blot
analysis using anti-V5 Ab. The 190-HARE proteins are as follows: lane 1,
WT; lane 2, ΔM1; lane 3,
ΔM2; lane 4, ΔM3; lane 5,
ΔM4; lane 6, ΔM1M2; lane 7,
ΔM1M2M4; lane 8, Y2519A; and lane 9, EV. B,
ligand blot assays were performed with 125I-HA in multiple
experiments using different clones of the indicated mutants, and HARE
expression was determined by Western blotting using the same strips after
autoradiography. 125I-HA ligand blot signals were normalized to
HARE expression using densitometry and to WT (as 100%).
