Figure 1. OsIFL is expressed in nucleus, cytoplasm and cell margins of plant cells.
OsIFL-GFP fusion protein was transiently expressed in onion epidermal peel cells and visualized using a laser scanning confocal microscope. (a) OsIFL-GFP localization using confocal microscopy in onion peel epidermal cells reveals it to be forming an intracellular fibrillar network in the cytoplasm. OsIFL-GFP fusion protein fluorescence was also observed at the cell margins as well as nucleus; (d) GFP localization as a control; (b,e) bright field image of the corresponding onion peel; (c,f) Overlapping images from bright field, DAPI and GFP fluorescence.
