Membrane fractions (see “Materials and methods” section) were immunoblotted for dynein intermediate chain, p150 or α-tubulin as indicated. Relative protein distributions in the cytosol (S3) and the heavy (P2) and light (P3) membrane fractions were determined by densitometric analysis of immunoreactive bands. Values are expressed as the mean ± SEM and were determined from at least three independent experiments
