Figure 1From: Quantifying raft proteins in neonatal mouse brain by 'tube-gel' protein digestion label-free shotgun proteomics Biochemical characterization of sucrose density gradient fractions of neonatal mouse brain. Panel A shows the distributions of protein and sucrose density in membrane fractions from sucrose gradients of neonatal brain. Panel B shows the light-scattering properties of each fraction by absorbance at 620 nm. The buoyant low density fractions 2~4 showed the greatest light-scattering properties at 620 nm, consistent with a high content of lipids. Panel C shows the distribution of sterols (cholesterol, desmosterol, lathosterol, and 7-dehydrodesmosterol (7DHD)) in each fraction from sucrose gradients of neonatal mouse brain and Panel D shows total sphingomyelin (SM) and ceramide (Cer).Back to article page
