Immunogold localisation of SR proteins and PANA antigen. a Gold particles reveal that SR proteins mostly occurred in interchromatin granules (IG), as well as in the perichromatin region (arrowheads) and the interchromatin space of A. cepa nuclei. b Condensed chromatin (Ch) and Cajal bodies (CB) are devoid of gold grains. c A similar SR protein distribution pattern was observed in L. luteus. d, e After staining with anti-PANA antigen, gold particles were mainly observed in the interchromatin granules of Allium cepa (d) and Lupinus luteus (e).
