Fig. 9. Plk1 is mislocalized in NudC-overexpressing cells. HeLa cells were
transduced with Ad-Luc or Ad-NudC for 96 hours and cells were stained with
anti-Plk1 antibodies and counterstained with DAPI as indicated. In
Ad-Luc-transduced control cells, Plk1 staining is found on the centrosomes
during metaphase (A) and at the midbody during cytokinesis (C). In
Ad-NudC-transduced cells, Plk1 staining is punctate and irregular throughout
the cell, as observed in cells that are connected by an intercellular bridge
(E) and in multinucleate cells (G). (H) Multiple nuclei and micronuclei are
observed by DAPI staining of DNA. Bar, 10 µm for all panels.
