Simultaneous visualization of LDL receptor distribution and clathrin lattices on membranes torn from the upper surface of cultured cellsDA Sanan and RG Anderson Department of Medical Biochemistry, University of Cape Town Medical School, South Africa. We have developed a method for simultaneous visualization by electron microscopy of both the distribution of cell surface receptors and architectural features of the inner membrane surface, such as clathrin- coated pits. Electron microscope grids were covered with formvar and coated with poly-L-lysine. These grids were then placed on a piece of buffer-impregnated cellulose acetate membrane filter maintained at 4 degrees C on an ice bath. Cells of interest were grown on glass coverslips and incubated with either a ligand-gold or an antibody-gold conjugate specific for the membrane determinant of interest. The coverslip with gold-labeled cells was then overlaid on the grids and pressure was applied. When the grid was removed, large areas of the upper cell surface, which had labeled determinants, remained adherent to the formvar support. With the proper staining, both the gold particles and internal membrane features could be seen at the same time in the electron microscope. This method is rapid, does not require extensive experience with electron microscopic technique, and permits viewing of membrane samples that are large enough to perform quantitative analysis of gold distribution in relation to membrane specializations.
