Fig. 1. Subcellular localization of DYRK1A. (A) Schematic representation of a
series of HA-tagged deletion mutants covering the full-length open reading
frame of human DYRK1A (754 amino acids alternative spliced form).
Representative domains are indicated: NLS (nuclear localization signal);
KINASE (kinase catalytic domain); PEST (domain rich in proline, glutamate,
serine and threonine); His (histidine repeat) and Ser/Thr
(serine/threonine-rich region).
, deletion; N, nuclear accumulation;
SP, speckle-like staining pattern. All these constructs were transiently
transfected in COS-7 cells. (B) Western blot of total protein extracts (10%
SDS-PAGE) using an anti-HA antibody for protein detection. Positions of marker
proteins (in kDa) are indicated. (C) Indirect immunofluorescence analysis
using an anti-HA monoclonal antibody, followed by an FITC-conjugated rabbit
anti-mouse secondary antibody. Results for the most representative mutants are
shown in B and C.
