Fig. 4. Localisation of insulin and Golgi apparatus in KHCmut-expressing
(a-c, g-i; arrow) and control (d-f, g-i) ß-cells. Cells were transfected
with the KHCmut-pAdTrack-CMV construct (A). Downstream of the
multiple cloning site, the shuttle vector carries cDNA for EGFP driven by a
distinct second CMV promoter. 48 hours after transfection the cells were fixed
and probed with (a-f) a guinea-pig anti-insulin (1:500) or (g-i) a mouse
monoclonal anti-TGN38 antibody (1:100) and then visualised with the
appropriate Alexa 568 secondary antibodies. (a,d,g) Transmitted light images.
(b,e,h) Alexa 568 fluorescence (568 nm excitation). (c,f,i) Intrinsic EGFP
fluorescence (488 nm excitation). Bars, 2.5 µm (a-i).
