FIGURE 4.

EmrE(Cin) and EmrE(Cout) homodimers reassemble into a mixture of EmrE(Cin)/EmrE(Cout) heterodimers, EmrE(Cin) homodimers, and EmrE(Cout) homodimers after heating to 60 °C and cooling. A, BN-PAGE of cells expressing EmrE(Cin) and cells expressing EmrE(Cout) that were mixed before lysis (lane 3) or mixed after membrane collection but before solubilization in DDM (lane 4). EmrE(Cin) (lane 1), co-expressed EmrE(Cin)/EmrE(Cout) (lane 2), co-expressed EmrE(Cout)/EmrE(Cin) (lane 5), and EmrE(Cout) (lane 6) are included for comparison. B, BN-PAGE of DDM-solubilized EmrE(Cin) mixed with DDM-solubilized EmrE(Cout) and incubated at either 4 °C or 60 °C for different times as indicated (lanes 3–6). EmrE(Cin) (lane 1), co-expressed EmrE(Cin)/EmrE(Cout) (lane 2), and EmrE(Cout) (lane 7) are included for comparison. C, BN-PAGE of DDM-solubilized EmrE(Cin) mixed with DDM-solubilized EmrE(WT)-Myc-His (lanes 1–4) and of EmrE(Cout) mixed with DDM-solubilized EmrE(WT)-Myc-His (lanes 5–8) incubated at either 4 or 60 °C for different times as indicated. The composition of the different dimers are indicated by the same symbols as described in the legend to Fig. 2.
