Dynamic interactions of fluorescently labeled microtubule-associated proteins in living cells
Microtubule-associated proteins (MAPs) from calf brain were fluorescently labeled with 6-iodoacetamido fluorescein (I-AF). The modified MAPs (especially enriched for MAP2) were fully active in promoting tubulin polymerization in vitro and readily associated with cytoplasmic filaments when microinjected into living cultured cells. Double-labeling experiments indicated that the microinjected AF-M...
متن کاملMyofibrillogenesis in living cells microinjected with fluorescently labeled alpha-actinin
Fluorescently labeled alpha-actinin, isolated from chicken gizzards, breast muscle, or calf brains, was microinjected into cultured embryonic myotubes and cardiac myocytes where it was incorporated into the Z-bands of myofibrils. The localization in injected, living cells was confirmed by reacting permeabilized myotubes and cardiac myocytes with fluorescent alpha-actinin. Both living and permea...
متن کاملMolecular cytochemistry: incorporation of fluorescently labeled actin into living cells.
Actin labeled with 5-iodoacetamidofluorescein has been incorporated into the functional pool of actin in Chaos carolinensis and Physarum polycephalum by direct microinjection. The functional activity of the labeled actin has been analyzed at three levels of organization as: (a) with the purified actin, (b) in motile extracts of cells, and (c) in living motile cells. The labeled actin exhibited ...
متن کاملVisualization of TGN to endosome trafficking through fluorescently labeled MPR and AP-1 in living cells.
We have stably expressed in HeLa cells a chimeric protein made of the green fluorescent protein (GFP) fused to the transmembrane and cytoplasmic domains of the mannose 6-phosphate/insulin like growth factor II receptor in order to study its dynamics in living cells. At steady state, the bulk of this chimeric protein (GFP-CI-MPR) localizes to the trans-Golgi network (TGN), but significant amount...
متن کاملReal-time observations of microtubule dynamic instability in living cells
Individual microtubule dynamics were observed in real time in primary cultures of newt lung epithelium using video-enhanced differential interference contrast microscopy and digital image processing. The linear filaments observed in cells corresponded to microtubules based on three criteria: (a) small particles translocated along them; (b) the majority of them disappeared after incubation in no...
