Characterization of the KIF9ARNAi mutant. (A and B) IFA on WT (A) or KIF9ARNAi (B) detergent-extracted trypanosomes. The anti-KIF9A antibody (1:800) labels the flagellum only in noninduced cells. (C and D) Transmission electron micrographs showing cross sections of flagella from WT (C) or 96 h–induced KIF9ARNAi cells (D). Representative images from 20 sections of WT and 20 sections of KIF9ARNAi. (E) Western blot on whole cell extracts of control or the indicated T. brucei axoneme mutants (5 × 106 cells/lane) induced for 3 d. The blot was probed with the anti-KIF9A antibody (1:500) and an antialdolase antibody (1:3,000) as a loading control. The experiment was reproduced twice. Values on blots are given in kilodaltons.
