α7 and α8 are required for membrane insertion of TP0453. A, Triton X-114 phase partitioning of WT and mutants is shown. Samples were subjected to SDS-PAGE followed by immunoblotting with monospecific antiserum directed against TP0453. aq, aqueous; det, detergent. B, incorporation of WT and mutant proteins into LUVs is shown. Lanes, bottom (BF), middle (MF) and top fractions (TF) from sucrose gradients were analyzed by SDS-PAGE and immunoblotting. C, binding curves of WT and mutants with bis-ANS show the relative changes in fluorescence intensity at 490 nm plotted against bis-ANS concentration. The inset represents a fluorescence emission spectrum of WT (1 μm) or buffer alone in the presence of 1 μm bis-ANS.
