Abstract :
All four subunits of the acetylcholine receptor in membrane vesicles isolated from Torpedo californica have been labeled with [3H]cholesteryl diazoacetate. As this probe incorporates into lipid bilayers analogously to cholesterol, this result indicates that acetylcholine receptor interacts with cholesterol. This investigation also demonstrates that this probe is a useful reagent for studying the interaction of cholesterol with membrane proteins. |
