AMD mutant of Scd6 is defective in repressing translation. (A) AMD mutant rescues growth defect caused by overexpression of SCD6. Five independent growth assay experiments (n = 5) were performed. (B) Live cell imaging of stress granule formation upon overexpression of wild-type and AMD mutant in Pab1-GFP strain. (C) Quantitation of Pab1-GFP granule formation by AMD mutant. Three independent experiments (n = 3) were considered for quantitation. (D) Western analysis to compare Pab1-GFP levels in cell lysates from strains expressing wild-type Scd6 and AMD mutant. Blots were probed with anti-GFP (upper panel) followed by probing with anti-PGK1 (lower panel).
