Figure 4. GnT1IP-L interacts specifically with MGAT1 in the Golgi.

Figure 4.

(A) Fluorescence microscopy of COS-7 cells stably expressing GnT1IP-L-mVen and transiently expressing medial Golgi GlcNAc-transferases MGAT1 to MGAT5 conjugated to mChe at their C-terminus compared to the Golgi marker GM130. (B) GnT1IP-L interaction with human GlcNAc-transferases. COS-7 or Lec1 CHO cells stably expressing GnT1IP-L-mVen were transfected with human cDNAs encoding MGAT1 to MGAT5 C-terminally tagged with mChe, and fluorescent resonance energy transfer (FRET) efficiencies were determined. (C) GnT1IP-L interaction with mouse GlcNAc-transferases. COS-7 cells transiently expressing mouse GnT1IP-L-mVen and GnT1IP-L-mChe or mouse MGAT1-mChe, MGAT2-mChe, MGAT3-mChe, MGAT4B-mChe or MGAT5-mChe and FRET efficiencies determined. (D) COS-7 cells stably expressing GnT1IP-L-mVen were co-transfected with mouse MGAT1-mChe together with competitive cDNA encoding mouse MGAT1 to MGAT5 C-terminally tagged with HA. (E) Transiently co-expressed MGAT1-mVen, MGAT2-mChe and GnT1IP-L-HA are localized in the Golgi. (F) COS-7 cells were transiently expressed with MGAT1-mVen, MGAT2-mChe and GnT1IP-L-HA, and FRET efficiencies were determined. Bars represent the mean ± STDEV (n = 10 cells).
