Fig. 10. Exocytosis of a digested yeast particle. (A-D) A cell containing two phagosomes with VatM-GFP-labeled membranes and a third with an unlabeled membrane (arrowheads). (A) A focal plane showing all three phagosomes; (B) a focal plane showing that the bud neck of the yeast particle in the unlabeled phagosome has a TRITC-dextran collar and is therefore a late phagosome; (C,D) two frames 5 seconds apart showing expulsion of the yeast particle from the unlabeled phagosome. Bar, 10 µm. (These frames are taken from Movie 3.)
