Csmd2 is found in synaptosomal and postsynaptic fractions. A, Membrane fractionation of P30 mouse forebrain lysate using a Percoll gradient. Representative membrane fractions are shown at top. Equal amounts of protein from each fraction were analyzed by Western blot analysis using three different α-Csmd2 antibodies and an α-PSD-95 antibody. All three Csmd2 antibodies detected Csmd2 enriched in the synaptosome-containing fractions, along with PSD-95. B, Preparation of crude synaptosomes showed a similar enrichment of Csmd2 and PSD-95 in the syaptosomal fraction (P2 pellet) compared to the soluble fraction (S2). Further extraction of P2 with Triton X-100 showed Csmd2 enriched in the PSD fraction (TxP pellet) with PSD-95, compared to the Triton X-100-soluble fraction (TxS). The Novus antibody detected full-length Csmd2 and a smaller band of unknown identity at ∼150 kDa.
