Fig. 10. Pulse-chase experiments using FM4-64, LysoSensor Blue and BODIPY TR-Ceramide. (A) Pulse-chase experiments using FM4-64. (Aa,Aa') Internalized PM is accumulated in the tip region 15 minutes after the pulse. (Aa'') Five hours after the pulse, the staining in the apex was faint or absent. (Ab-Ab'') Pollen tube 24 hours after the pulse with FM4-64 (Ab); colocalization experiments using LysoSensor Blue (Ab') showed that the probes overlap in the vacuolar membranes (Ab''). (Ab''') Citofluogram that visualizes the frequency distribution of intensity in a 2D scatter plot. (B) Colocalization of FM4-64 with BODIPY-labelled membranes. (Ba,Bb) BODIPY TR-Ceramide-stained spots are distributed in the cytoplasm and are more concentrated in the tip region to form a collar-like structure (arrowheads) just behind the extreme tip at 5 (a) and 30 (b) minutes after the addition of FM4-64. (Ba',Bb') FM4-64 staining pattern after 5 (Ba') and 30 (Bb') minutes. (Ba'',Bb'') Colocalization analysis showing that probe staining overlaps in the collar-like structure and in the whole tip (white spots) after 5 and 30 minutes, respectively, after the addition of FM4-64. (Bc,Bd) Citofluograms that allow the distribution of intensity of green and red channels to be visualized in a 2D scatter plot referred to time-course analysis 5 and 30 minutes after FM4-64 addition, respectively. The ROIs select colocalized pixels. Bars, 10 µm.
