Microsomal fractions, glyoxysomes and mitochondria were isolated from homogenates of germinating castor-bean (Ricinus communis) endosperm by sucrose-density-gradient centrifugation. Washed membrane preparations from these cellular fractions were examined by sodium dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis. At corresponding developmental stages the endoplasmic-reticulum and glyoxysomal membranes were strikingly similar in polypeptide composition, at least 16 polypeptides being present in membranes isolated from 3-day-old tissue. Supplying [35S]methionine to intact endosperm tissue resulted in the labelling of all membrane polypeptides, the specific radioactivity in the endoplasmic reticulum being greater than for equivalent polypeptides of the glyoxysomal membrane. Washing these membranes with sodium deoxycholate solution extensively solubilized protein components, with the exception of a predominant polypeptide of mol.wt. 55000. Mitochondrial membrane preparations differed from those of the endoplasmic reticulum and glyoxysomes in polypeptide molecular-weight distribution and the [35S]methionine-labelling pattern. The similarity in polypeptide composition between endoplasmic-reticulum and glyoxysomal membranes is discussed in relation to glyoxysome biogenesis.
