Figure 1:
NQO1 and SIRT2 colocalize to the mitotic spindle during mitosis. (A, B) Confocal microscopy images show the locations of endogenous SIRT2 (red) and NQO1 (green) during both metaphase (A) and telophase (B) in MCF-7 human breast cancer cells. (C, D) Confocal microscopy images show the locations of endogenous SIRT2 (red) and NQO1 (green) during both metaphase (C) and telophase (D) in BxPC-3 human pancreatic cancer cells. In all panels above, DNA was stained with DAPI (blue). On the right, graphs represent signal intensity scans along the lines drawn for each panel. Scale bar, 20 µm. (E, F, G) Higher magnification images (60x) under same experimental conditions as shown in A, B.
