We employed fluorescence correlation spectroscopy (FCS) to analyze the characteristics of biomolecules in living cells. Protein kinase C (PKC) changes its subcellular localization from cytosol to the plasma membrane by its ligand. Using FCS, we found PKCbetaI labeled with enhanced green fluorescent protein freely diffusing in cytosol. Upon 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate activation, a large part of PKCbetaI is anchored in the plasma membrane but some PKCbetaI still moves freely near the plasma membrane. These results indicate that a diffusion-driven transport mechanism is appropriate for the molecular mechanism of the PKCbetaI localization change.
