Fig. 7. Subcytoplasmic localization of IMP1 is mediated by the four KH domains. NIH
3T3 cells were transiently transfected with GFP-IMP1 deletion constructs. (A)
Schematic representation of the constructs and their ability (+) to form
granules and localise subcytoplasmically. *The KH2-4 construct
exhibited a tendency to form immobile aggregates that could be mistaken for
granules. (B) Representative pictures of the constructs. (C) Cotransfection of
CFP-IMP1 and YFP-KH1-4. The frames are in pseudo-colours to aid visualisation:
CFP fluorescence is shown in green, YFP fluorescence is shown in red, and
regions of overlap are shown in yellow.
