An isotopically labeled cross-linking reagent, succinimido 3-(3-(/sup 125/I)iodo-4-azidophenyl)propionate, has been synthesized and coupled to 1-acyl-2-(aminocaproyl)phosphatidylcholine according to previously described procedures. /sup 125/I- and N/sub 3/-labeled phosphatidylserine (/sup 125/I-N/sub 3/-PS) was produced from the phosphatidylcholine (PC) analog by phospholipase D catalyzed base exchange in the presence of L-serine. These phospholipid analogues are photoactivatable, are labeled with /sup 125/I at high specific activity, completely incorporate into synthetic vesicles, and spontaneously transfer between membranes. When an excess of acceptor vesicles or red blood cells (RBC) was mixed with a population of donor vesicles containing the /sup 125/I-N/sub 3/-phospholipids, approximately 40% of the analogues transferred to the acceptor population. After transfer in the dark to RBC, all of the /sup 125/I-N/sub 3/-PC incorporated into the cells could be removed by washing with serum, whereas the /sup 125/I-N/sub 3/-PS could not. After photolabeling of intact RBC, approx.50% of the PC and 20% of the PS cross-linked to membrane proteins as determined by their insolubility in CHCl/sub 3//MeOH. Analysis of probe distribution by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis revealed that /sup 125/I-N/sub 3/-PS preferentially labeled a M/sub r/ 30,000 peptide which contained approx.30% of the protein-bound label.
