Figure 1. NV replication induces Golgi fragmentation.
Viral RNA, purified from the stool of a human volunteer infected with Norwalk virus, was transfected into Huh7 cells grown on coverslips. At 24 hours post-transfection (hpt), cells were fixed and stained for the viral protein VP1 (Alexa 488; green fluorescence) and either the cis (A) or trans (B) Golgi with antibody against GM130 or golgin-97 (Alexa 594; red fluorescence), respectively. Nuclei were stained with DAPI (blue fluorescence) and imaged by deconvolution microscopy. * indicate cells with disassembled Golgi.
