Incorporation Of A Product Of Mevalonic Acid Metabolism Into Proteins Of Chinese Hamster Ovary Nuclei, Michael Sinensky, L. A. Beck, T. Hosick Jan 1988

Incorporation Of A Product Of Mevalonic Acid Metabolism Into Proteins Of Chinese Hamster Ovary Nuclei, Michael Sinensky, L. A. Beck, T. Hosick

We have examined the nuclear localization of isoprenylated proteins in CHO-K1 cells labeled with [14C]mevalonate. Nuclear proteins of 68, 70, and 74 kD, posttranslationally modified by an isoprenoid, are also components of a nuclear matrix-intermediate filament preparation from CHO cells. Furthermore, the 68-, 70-, and 74-kD isoprenylated polypeptides are immunoprecipitated from cell extracts with two different anti-lamin antisera. Based on exact two-dimensional comigration with lamin B, both from rat liver lamin and CHO nuclear matrix-intermediate filament preparations, and its immunoprecipitation with anti-lamin antisera, we conclude that the 68-kD isoprenylated protein found in nuclei from [14C]mevalonate-labeled CHO cells is lamin B. …
