Distribution of G proteins on Percoll gradients. A) Distribution of endocytosed FITC-dextran (closed circles), BLM-bound FITC-WGA (open triangles) and the plasma membrane marker alkaline phosphodiesterase 1 (APDE 1) (open squares) on Percoll gradients. The predominant positions of plasma membranes, endosomes and lysosomes are indicated at the top of the graph. The data for the dextran and APDE 1 curves were previously published [ref [17], Figure 3C].

B) Distribution of G, Giα1,2, Giα3 and Gβ and various marker proteins on Percoll gradients. Blots for heterotrimeric G protein subunits contained 20 μg protein/lane and are representative of similar blots for 4 different liver preparations. Blots for EEA1, rab 5, Trf-R, MRP-2, TGN-38 and LAMP1 contained 40, 20, 20, 30, 30 and 15 μg protein/lane, respectively, and are representative of similar blots for 4,4,4,4,3 and 4 different liver preparations, respectively.
