Figure 7. LDL uptake is μ-AP2 mediated.

Figure 7

Uptake assays of fluorophore-labelled LDL (BODIPY-LDL) and dextran (FITC-dextran) demonstrate that both the LDL and dextran localize to the PVs in non-permeabilized trophozoite (left panels, −ds). When gμ2 is depleted, the LDL remains on the surface, including the flagella (arrowheads), while dextran is still internalized to the PVs (right panels, +ds). Bar, 10 μm.
