Substrate-attached asynchronous HeLa [human cervical carcinoma] cells were extracted with Triton X-100 and analyzed by EM and 2-dimensional gel electrophoresis. Such Triton cytoskeletons showed actin filament bundles, microtubules intermediate filaments, and actin networks in the substrate-associated lamellae, and contained around 90 polypeptides (48 basic, 42 acidic; 52% of total actin, 99% of vimentin, 41% of .alpha.-actinin and 30% of .beta.-tubulin). Cytoskeletons produced by further extraction in high and low salt buffers (L-H-L) showed only intermediate filaments, the nucleus and residual actin, and contained a total of 19 polypeptides (13 acidic, 6 basic). Of these, 12 corresponded to abundant acidic proteins in the 47,000-70,000 Mr [molecular ratio] region as determined by staining with Coomassie blue and labeling with a mixture of 14C-labeled amino acids. Using L-H-L extracted cytoplasts, and employing an actin depolymerizing protein from slime moulds, seven abundant acidic IEF .dbldag. [isoelectric focusing] polypeptides were present in these intermediate filament-enriched, substrate-attached cytoplast cytoskeletons. These polypeptides (L-H-L cytoplast polypeptides) corresponded to vimentin (IEF 26, 54,000 Mr) and 6 polypeptides (IEF 12, 68,000 Mr; IEF 24, 56,000 Mr; IEF 31, 50,000 Mr; IEF 35, 49,000 Mr; IEF 36, 48,500 Mr and IEF 46, 43,500 Mr) not previously reported as present in cytoskeletons. Peptide analysis showed that these were not related as products of modification or proteolysis. Labeling of mitotic and interphase cells with [35S]methionine followed by dimensional peptide map analysis showed that IEF 24, 26 (vimentin), 31 and 36 are preferentially modified during mitosis. These modifications correspond to phosphorylations of IEF 26 (vimentin) and 31, and to an unknown type for IEF 24. IEF 36 is phosphorylated in interphase to yield IEF 37, and the latter is further phosphorylated in mitosis. Apparently, modification of the L-H-L cytoplast polypeptides may be important in the reorganization of cytoskeletal elements that takes place during cell division.
