Application

The kit provides an easy method for obtaining fractions enriched with caveolea/rafts proteins from tissue culture cells. This method for the isolation of caveolae and rafts is based on the insolubility of these structures in ice cold non-ionic detergent Triton X-100. The kit includes all reagents for cells lysis, density gradient, and the isolation of caveolea/rafts protein enriched fraction, as well as two markers for caveolea/rafts compartments, anti-caveolin-1 and cholera toxin B subunit-peroxidase (CTB-HRP).

Biochem/physiol Actions

Caveolae and lipid rafts are important cholesterol and sphingolipid-rich structures that represent a subcompartment or microdomain of the plasma membrane and are implicated in cellular transport and signal transduction related events.
