A subset of plasma membrane proteins are missorted upon ADF and cofilin1 knockdown. ADF and cofilin1 (CFL-1) knockdown affects the polypeptide composition of plasma membrane. HeLa cells were transfected with control or ADF + cofilin1 siRNA. The cells were pulsed with 35S-labeled methionine for 15 min and chased with unlabeled L-methionine for 2 h with or without BFA. Subsequently, intact cells were surface biotinylated with NHS-biotin and lysed. Equal amounts of lysates (based on [35S]methionine content) from control and ADF/cofilin1 knockdown cells were incubated with avidin-conjugated beads. The plasma membrane population of polypeptides in ADF + cofilin1 knockdown cells was different compared with control cells. N, new proteins; L, less or missing; *, no obvious change.
