Characterization of Motile caRhoA-Expressing Cells In Vivo, Related to Figure 7
(A) Fluorescence time-lapse images of a single polarized stable-bleb cell transplanted from a transgenic Tg(actβ1:lifeact-GFP) donor with mosaic expression of caRhoA plus GPI-RFP into a wild-type host.
(B) Localization of Myl12.1-eGFP (myosin II) in a single polarized progenitor cell transplanted from a transgenic Tg(actβ1:myl12.1eGFP) donor with mosaic expression of caRhoA plus GPI-RFP into a wild-type host (left) with kymograph data along cell margin (right).
(C) Quantification of Myl12.1-eGFP (myosin II) localization in polarized stable-bleb cells along normalized cell length in vivo (n = 4 cells).
(D) Fluorescence time-lapse images of a single polarized stable-bleb cell transplanted from a transgenic Tg(actβ1:myl12.1eGFP) donor with mosaic expression of a constitutively active version of rhoA (caRhoA) plus GPI-RFP plus e-Cadherin morpholinos (MO) into a wild-type host.
(E) Exemplary 2D projected in vivo tracks of polarized motile cells expressing either caRhoA (blue) or caRhoA plus e-Cadherin MO (caRhoA+Ecad-MO, red) obtained from transplantation experiments as described in (D).
(F) Quantification of average single cell net displacement over time for polarized motile cells expressing either caRhoA (blue) or caRhoA plus e-Cadherin MO (caRhoA+Ecad-MO, red). All scale bars, 20 μm.
