Figure 8. The non-canonical motifs are required for 4E-BP-mediated eIF4E nuclear import.

Figure 8

(ax) S2 cells expressing HA-tagged versions of CUP (ad; mp), Thor (eh; qt) or 4E-T (il; ux) or the corresponding 4E-BMs mutants (indicated on the left) were treated with LMB for 12 h (+ LMB) or with methanol as control (−LMB). The cells were fixed and the localization of the HA-tagged proteins and endogenous eIF4E was determined by indirect immunofluorescence using anti-HA and anti-eIF4E antibodies. The merged pictures show the HA signal in green and the eIF4E signal in red. Scale bar, 5 μm.
