Fig. 3. Dividing cells bind only to Shiga toxin (Cy3-ST). Cells were partially
synchronized by a double-thymidine block and analyzed for toxin binding 6
hours later. The relative number of small round-shaped cells binding
preferentially to Cy3-ST (upper left panel) is significantly higher than in
non-synchronized cultures. Note that the dividing cells (arrows) bind only to
ST. The flat, extended, irregularly shaped cells bind only to Cy2-CTX (upper
right panel). Lower left panel: overlay of the two upper panels. Lower right
panel: digital interference contrast.
