Supplemental Figure 1.Plasma membrane localization of CAP, CAPSH3 and caveolin I in 3T3-L1 adipocytes. 3T3-L1 adipocytes were electroporated with 50g DNA containing CAP or CAPSH3 as described in Methods. Transfected adipocytes were paraformaldehyde fixed and stained with anti FLAG (Sigma) and caveolin I (Transduction Laboratories) antibodies. Cells were then incubated with FITC and Texas Red conjugated anti-mouse and anti-rabbit antibodies respectively (Vector Laboratories). Representative confocal immunofluorescence images of anti-FLAG-FITC stained CAP (panels 1) or CAPSH3 (panel 2)expressing adipocytes with anti-caveolin Texas Red labeling for endogenous caveolin I (panels 3 and 4). The merge of the FITC labeled CAP and CAPSH3 with Texas Red labeled caveolin I are shown in panels (5) and (6), respectively.
Supplemental Figure 2.Caveolin and flotillin co-localize in plasma membrane subdomains (rosettes) in 3T3-L1 adipocytes. Plasma membrane sheets were prepared as described under Methods. Representative confocal immunofluorescence images of plasma membrane sheet localized FITC-flotillin (panels 1 and 2) and Texas Red- caveolin (panels 3 and 4) isolated from basal (panels 1 and 3) or insulin-treated cells (panels 2 and 4). The co-localization of FITC-labeled flotillin and Texas Red-labeled caveolin are shown in panels (panels 5 and 6), respectively.
Supplemental Figure 3. Insulin stimulates the translocation of Cbl to caveolae-enriched membranes in 3T3-L1 adipocytes. Control and insulin-stimulated 3T3-L1 adipocytes were non-detergent homogenized, sonicated and subjected to sucrose gradient fractionation. These panels are representative immunoblots for caveolin, flotillin and Cbl in the isolated fractions from low to high density (fraction 1-12).
Supplemental Figure 4. CAP and CAPSH3 have no effect on GLUT1 translocation in 3T3-L1 adipocytes. Differentiated 3T3-L1 adipocyte nuclei were co-microinjected with 0.2mg/ml of MBP-Ras plus either the CAP or CAPSH3 cDNA. The cells allowed to recover for 24hours, and then treated without (panels 1 and 2)or with 100nM insulin (panels 3-6) for 30min. Plasma membrane sheets were prepared and MBP-Ras was detected with a FITC labeled anti-MBP antibody (panels 1, 3 and 5) and GLUT4 with a Cy5 labeled anti-GLUT4 antibody (panels 2, 4 and 5). These are representative images obtained from five independent experiments and visualization of 60-91 individual plasma membrane sheets.
