Fig. 2

(A) Frequency of bi/multinucleated cells after the over-expression of DsRed-hDlg fusion proteins. U2OS and HeLa cells were transfected with various constructs, and the number of multinucleated cells among transfected cells was counted. The data are mean ± SD from three independent experiments. At least 116 transfected cells were analyzed for each sample. (B) Representative images of U2OS cells expressing DsRed-GUK and DsRed control. Note that the DsRed-GUK expressing cell contains two nuclei. Images are the merge of DsRed (red) and DAPI (blue) signals. (C) Unusual morphology of the HeLa cells expressing DsRed-GUK is noteworthy. Bar 10 µm.
