Bullock brain coated vesicles contain a family of at least 6 100-kd [kilodalton] polypeptides which have the property of promoting clathrin assembly. These proteins were purified from Triton X-100-extracted coated vesicles by a combination of gel filtration and chromatography on hydroxylapatite and DE-52 cellulose. Three major 100-kd species occur as complexes with a stoichiometric amount of a 50-kd polypeptide. On cross-linking these complexes, the chief products appear to contain 2 polypeptides of 100 kd and 2 of 50 kd. These 100-kd/50-kd complexes will polymerize with low concentrations of clathrin to give a relatively homogeneous population of coats predominantly of the barrel size. Three other polypeptides of 100 kd lack the 50-kd protein but polymerize with clathrin under the same conditions to yield coats of a wide range of sizes including barrels, truncated icosahedra and particles of > 100 nm diameter. When clathrin cages are reassembled with a saturating amount of 100-kd/50-kd complexes and studied by EM, the additional proteins appear to follow the underlying geometry of the clathrin polyhedra, partially filling in the polygonal faces of the cage structures. Saturation appears to require .apprx. 3 molecules of 100-kd polypeptide per clathrin trimer.
