We have developed a rapid procedure for isolating a fraction enriched in plasma membrane from Dunaliella salina using an aqueous two-phase system (dextran/polyethylene glycol, 6.7%/6.7%). An enriched plasma membrane fraction, free of chloroplast and mitochondrial contamination, could be obtained in 2.5 hours. Plasma membrane proteins, which accounted for approximately 1% of the total membrane protein, contained a number of unique proteins compared with the other cell fractions, as shown by gel electrophoresis. The lipids of the plasma membrane fraction from 1.7 molar NaCl-grown cells were extracted and characterized. Phosphatidylethanolamine and phosphatidylcholine were the two most prevalent phospholipids, at 20.6% and 6.0% of the total lipid, respectively. In addition, inositol phospholipids were a significant component of the D. salina plasma membrane fraction. Phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate and phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate accounted for 5.2% and 1.5% of the plasma membrane phospholipid, respectively. Diacylglyceryltrimethylhomoserine accounted for 7.9% of the plasma membrane total lipid. Free sterols were the major component of the plasma membrane fraction, at 55% of the total lipid, and consisted of ergosterol and 7-dehydroporiferasterol. Sterol peroxides were not present in the plasma membrane fraction. The lipid composition of enriched plasma membrane fractions from cells grown at 0.85 molar NaCl and 3.4 molar NaCl were compared with those grown at 1.7 molar NaCl. The concentration of diacylglyceryltrimethylhomoserine and the degree of plasma membrane fatty acid saturation increased in 3.4 molar plasma membranes. The relative concentration of sterols in the plasma membrane fraction was similar in all three NaCl concentrations tested.
