Figure 1. GPS2 localizes to mitochondria and regulates mitochondrial function through neMITO gene expression.
(A) GPS2 and mtHSP70 immunostaining in 3T3-L1 and Hela cells.
(B) WB of 293T cells are transfected with full length GPS2 (wt), GPS2 with deletion of first 60 aa and mutation of K254,300,327 (Δ60-CtKsR), GPS2 1–155 and 1–212.
(C) Decreased respiration and oxygen consumption in 3T3-L1 GPS2-KD cells.
(D) Relative expression of representative neMITO genes by RT-qPCR in 3T3-L1 cells.
(E) Mitochondrial proteins expression by WB with relative quantification, n=3 independent blots.
(F) Mitochondrial DNA content in WT and GPS2-KD 3T3-L1 and 293T cells.
