Figure 4. Cx26 mutants co-localize with Cx30.

Figure 4

These are deconvolved images of bulk-selected HeLa cells that express wild type Cx26 or wild type Cx30 alone, or co-express wild type Cx30 and wild type Cx26 (Cx26/Cx30) or the indicated Cx26 mutant. The cells were double-labeled with a rabbit antiserum against the C-terminus of Cx30 (red) and a mouse monoclonal antibody against the C-terminus of Cx26 (green), and counterstained with DAPI (blue). In these merged images, Cx26 and Cx30 are largely co-localized, forming (orange to yellow) gap junction plaques at cell borders in all cases. Scale bar: 10 μm.
