Together, these observations suggest that SDS-resistant oligomer formation is an intrinsic property of Gml and mutant Gml proteins that are retained in the Golgi complex, but not of mutants that efficiently reach the plasma membrane. HeLa cells expressing Gml were metabolically labeled for 5 min, chased for the indicated times, solubilized, and immunoprecipitated with anti-VSV G antibody (Fig. 3) . HeLa cells expressing Gml or VSV G were metabolically radiolabeled for 5 min, and then chased for 0 or 60 rain, and microsomes prepared as described in Materials and Methods. On sucrose gradients, Gml solubilized from cytochalasin D-treated cells migrated as an SDS-sensitive oligomer (in the pellet), and VSV G trimerization was unaffected (data not shown). ./cache/cord-299281-5z1xminb.txt ./txt/cord-299281-5z1xminb.txt
