Fig. 4. Fluorescence microscopy depicting the distribution of HK13-EGFP (A-K)
together with plectin (A'-E'; monoclonal antibodies 10F6) or
14-3-3
(F'-K') in methanol/acetone-fixed AK13-1 cells in the
absence of OV (A,A',F,F'), after a 2 minute OV treatment (5 mM;
B,B',G,G'), a 10 minute OV treatment (5 mM;
C,C',H,H'), after 2 or 3 hours of okadaic acid incubation (0.1
µg/ml; D,D',I,I') or during mitosis (E,E',K,K').
Note the increased co-distribution of plectin and CKs during OV treatment and
mitosis and the lack of plectin staining of okadaic-induced granules, which is
in contrast to 14-3-3
distribution exhibiting the reverse behavior. Bars,
10 µm.
