Figure 2. Aggregates formed by truncated FUS 1–359 in SH-SY5Y cells display typical characteristics of aggresomes. (A) Large juxtanuclear structures formed by FUS 1–359 are clustered around the centrosome, visualized with centrosome marker gamma-tubulin (arrowheads). (B) Anti-vimentin staining of cells expressing FUS 1–359 reveals a characteristic “vimentin cage” around large juxtanuclear structures. (C) Formation of juxtanuclear aggregates by FUS 1–359 (arrow) is prevented by nocodazole-induced disruption of microtubules. Scale bar: 15 µm for all panels.
