Effect of Headless Xklp3 and SUK4 on Lysomal Movement

Cell group		Treatment
		Acidic		Alkaline
Nontransfected*		0.35 ± 0.039		0.21 ± 0.044
pEGFP-C1*		0.39 ± 0.095		0.18 ± 0.038
pEGFP-headless Xklp3*		0.36 ± 0.054		0.18 ± 0.012
SUK4-injected‡		0.24 ± 0.050		0.22 ± 0.072

Average distances between lysosomes and the cell center were measured in nontransfected/noninjected cells, cells transfected with either pEGFP-C1 or pEGFP-headless Xklp3, and cells injected with SUK4 (10 mg/ml). To compensate for cell size differences, the averages were normalized by being divided by the square root of the cell area.  

^* For each group, acidic and alkaline are significantly different (P < 0.01); there is no significant difference between any two groups (exception of SUK4) under the same treatment.  

^‡ Acidic and alkaline are not significantly different (P < 0.05); SUK4 acidic significantly differs from nontransfected acidic (P = 0.01).
