[3H]Colchicine binds in a concentration and temperature dependent, saturatable and noncooperative manner to cytoplasmic proteins from pigeon erythrocytes: Kd = 3.5 x 10(-7) M at 37 degrees C. Binding of [3H] colchicine at 0 degrees C and of [3H]lumicolchicine at 37 degrees C was significantly reduced. Hence microtubular proteins are present in the cytoplasm of pigeon erythrocytes. Antibody against bovine brain tubulin was raised in rabbits and confirmed by immunodiffusion, passive immunohaemolysis and in radioimmunoassay. Pigeon erythrocyte membrane proteins solubilized with 2% sodium cholate competed with 125I-labelled tubulin in the radioimmununoassay although much higher concentrations of membrane proteins than of purified bovine brain tubulin were required for effective competition. No binding to antibody occurred with boiled solubilized membrane preparations. Similar results were obtained with antitubulin-dependent passive immunohaemolysis of tubulin-coated sheep erythrocytes in the presence of complement. The presence of tubulin in membranes was verified by binding intact pigeon erythrocytes to colchicine-Sepharose beads at 37 degrees C. Free colchicine (5mM) or incubation at 0 degrees C prevented binding. Lumicolchicine-Sepharose beads did not attach to erythrocytes at 37 degrees S. Thus pigeon erythrocyte membranes contain microtubular protein.
