Fig. 9. An amino-terminal fragment of CAP350 localizes to subnuclear foci and recruits PPAR{alpha} to these foci. NIH3T3 cells were cotransfected with expression plasmids for EYFP-CAP3501-890 (green) and mRFP-PPAR{alpha} (red) (A-C) or for EYFP-CAP3501-890(LSHAA) and mRFP-PPAR{alpha} (D-F) and subjected to live cell imaging. Panels C and F show the merged images of panels A and B and panels D and E, respectively. Representative images are shown. EYFP-CAP3501-890 and EYFP-CAP3501-890(LSHAA) concentrate in subnuclear foci but are not present in the centrosome or in cytoskeletal microfilaments. mRFP-PPAR{alpha} colocalizes in subnuclear foci with EYFP-CAP3501-890 but not with EYFP-CAP3501-890(LSHAA) (panel F). Bar, 10 µm. (G) Mutation of the LXXLL motif in the amino-terminal fragment of CAP350 does not abrogate its binding to PPAR{alpha} in vitro. In vitro synthesized, L-[35S]methionine-labeled PPAR{alpha} or firefly luciferase (Luc) (a control for nonspecific protein binding) synthesized in vitro was incubated with immobilized GST-CAP3501-890 or GST-CAP3501-890(LSHAA), as indicated, and bound radiolabeled proteins were analyzed by SDS-PAGE. The left lanes show parallel binding reactions carried out with labeled luciferase as a negative control. Lanes designated Load (1/10) had 10% of the L-[35S]methionine-labeled protein added to each of the respective binding assays.
