    Abstract:
    Monoclonal antibodies have been obtained against a purified fraction of brain G proteins containing the Gi alpha, G0 alpha, G beta, and G gamma subunits. After characterization, two monoclonal antibodies have been used to detect the cellular distribution of the two epitopes in neural, retinal and muscular tissues: ELISA, cross-dot and Western blot demonstrated that F.IV.5 is an anti-G beta antibody specific for the 36 kDa beta-subunit. ELISA, cross-dot and immunocytochemical distribution of the epitopes recognized by F.VII.9 suggested that this antibody recognizes epitopes which are also detected with polyclonal anti-G0 alpha antibodies. With both monoclonal antibodies, we confirmed that G proteins demonstrated a sub-membranous distribution as well as extensively cytoplasmic, axoplasmic or sarcoplasmic distributions in different cell types.
