  • Title: [Rapid simultaneous isolation of microsomes and plasma membranes from neuroblastoma C 1300 N 18 cells].
    Author: Volkov GL.
    Journal: Ukr Biokhim Zh (1978); 1989; 61(5):71-7. PubMed ID: 2588350.
    Abstract:
    The method is suggested to isolate simultaneously microsomes and plasma membranes of neuroblastoma S 1300 N 18 cells by means of differential centrifugation in the step density gradient of Percoll/Ficoll with a high degree of purification determined from the activity of marker enzymes (acetyl cholinesterase Na+,K+-ATPase, alkali phosphatase, glucose-6-phosphatase, succinate-dehydrogenase, acid phosphatase) as well as from the content of DNA and RNA and with a sufficiently high protein yield. The purified fractions of microsomes and plasma membranes are established to contain no phosphatidyl glycerol and cardiolipin--safety markers of mitochondrial membrane purification. A degree of separation of microsomes, plasma membranes and proteins dissolved in cytosol may be estimated by the activity of the cholesterol-synthesizing system of enzymes with the use of sterol-transferring protein.
