Known cooperative signals responsible for membrane association. myr, myristoylation; pal, palmitoylation; pos, polybasic region; PTM, partial transmembrane domain.
As determined in this and a previous study (McCabe and Berthiaume, 1999). pm, plasma membrane; endo, endosomes; ER, endoplasmic reticulum; cyto, cytoplasm; Golgi, Golgi region.
Immunofluorescence using anti-GFP and anti-caveolin Abs. Cholesterol: free cholesterol as detected by filipin; GM1, ganglioside GM1 detection utilizing FITC-cholera toxin B subunit.
Lipid raft association as defined by 1% TX-100 and sodium carbonate sucrose gradient fractionation methods.
Numbers between parentheses refer to the position of palmitoylated cysteines.
As determined in Anderson (1998), Uittenbogaard et al. (1998), Luetterforst et al. (1999), and Luton et al. (1999).
Weak colocalization noted.
ND, Not determined.
