Fig. 1. Remodelling of mitochondria of wild-type cells upon glucose repression.
Wild-type cells expressing matrix targeted GFP were grown in glycerol to log
phase and transferred for 45 minutes into glucose-containing medium. (A-C)
Beam-scanning confocal images of representative budding cells. Maximum
intensity projections of several optical planes of the fluorescence signal
overlaid with a bright field transmission image are displayed. (D-I) Confocal
time-lapse microscopy recording the reorganization of the wild-type
mitochondrial network upon glucose repression. Selected maximum intensity
projections are displayed. The underlying data-stack comprises 165
three-dimensional stacks with
4000 single optical sections. Solid arrows
indicate sites of future matrix separation. Feathered arrows indicate future
fusion sites. The mitochondrial network had a morphology characteristic of
cells grown in glycerol at time point zero. Bar, 2 µm. The complete dataset
is available in two movies (Movie 1 and Movie 2 at
jcs.biologists.org/supplemental).
