Monitoring E-cadherin dynamics at the plasma membrane. (A) Integrated fluorescence intensity measurements over the plasma membrane at activation (full line) and t1/2 time points (dash line) were fitted to Gaussian curves for PAGFP-E-cadherin (top) and PAGFP-Farn2Palm (bottom). (B) Quantification of the speed of lateral movement of PAGFP-E-cadherin and PAGFP-Farn2Palm within the membrane. (C) Integrated fluorescence intensity measurements over the plasma membrane at bleaching (full line) and t1/2 time points (dash line) were fitted to Gaussian curves for GFP-E-cadherin (top) and GFP-Farn2Palm (bottom). (D) Quantification of the speed of lateral movement of GFP-E-cadherin and GFP-Farn2Palm within the membrane. Values represent the mean from at least 25 cells. Error bars, s.e.m.
