Antibodies raised in rabbits to Triton-solubilized, purified acetylcholine receptor from Torpedo californica were used to immunospecifically label intact T. californica electroplaque membrane vesicles attached to cover slips and oriented with the extracellular face of the synaptic membrane facing outward. Hemocyanin conjugated to Protein A was then used as a marker, making the antibody binding visible at the electron microscope level. Parallel labeling experiments were performed on vesicles attached to cover slips and sheared by sonication, leaving their cytoplasmic faces fully exposed to the labeling solution. While differences in antibody populations among different rabbits were observed, antigenic determinants of the receptor were present on both faces of the membrane, with those on the extracellular side more numerous than those on the cytoplasmic side, demonstrating the transmembrane nature of the receptor molecule.

The nuclear envelope is a complex membrane structure that forms the boundary of the nuclear compartment in eukaryotes. It regulates the passage of macromolecules between the two compartments and may be important for organizing interphase chromosome architecture. In interphase animal cells it forms a remarkably stable structure consisting of a double membrane ouerlying a protein meshwork or lamina and penetrated by nuclear pore complexes. The latter form the channels for nucleocytoplasmic exchange of macromolecules, At the onset of mitosis, however, it rapidly disassembles, the membranes fragment to yield small vesicles and the lamina, which is composed of predominantly three polypeptides, lamins R, B and C (MW approx. 74, 68 and 65 kDa respectiuely), breaks down. Lamins B and C are dispersed as monomers throughout the mitotic cytoplasm, while lamin B remains associated with the nuclear membrane vesicles.
