Neighboring proteins in rat liver 60 S ribosomal subunits were investigated by two kinds of cross-linking techniques: treatment of 60 S subunits with 1) hydrogen peroxide, which promotes the formation of protein-protein disulfide linkages and 2) a disulfide-bridged bifunctional reagent dithiobis(succinimidyl propionate). The cross-linked protein complexes formed were separated by two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in a basic-sodium dodecyl sulfate gel system under nonreducing conditions. Each complex in the gel was labeled with 125I and extracted under reducing conditions. The protein components of the complex were analyzed by two kinds of two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, followed by autoradiography. Closely neighboring pairs disulfide-linked by hydrogen peroxide were identified as L4-L6, L4-L29, L6-L29, L18a-L29, and L29-L32; more distant pairs cross-linked with dithiobis(succinimidyl propionate) were identified as L3-L5, L3-L24, L3-L37a, L4-L14, L4-L18a, L5-L10, L5-L11, L7/L7a-L27, L7/L7a-L36, L13-L35, and L13a-L14.
