Septin destabilization triggers CAR contraction in GAL1-DMA2 cells. a, c GAL1-DMA2 BUD4 cells with the indicated genotypes and expressing Shs1-mCherry and Myo1-GFP were grown in SD-raffinose and induced for 90 min with galactose before being mounted with SD raffinose/galactose for imaging at 30 °C (every 2 min for 2 h). Arrowheads indicate disassembly of septin rings (yellow) or the onset of CAR constriction (white). DIC differential interference contrast. b GAL1-DMA2 BUD4 shs1Δ cells expressing either Cdc10-eGFP (upper panel) or Myo1-GFP (bottom panel) were treated as in a. Scale bar: 5 μm. d Quantification of fluorescence intensities associated to Shs1-mCherry and Myo1-GFP around the time of septin ring splitting (time 0) in GAL1-DMA cdc12-1 (n = 10) and GAL1-DMA2 TEM1-Q79L cells (n = 13): red squares: Shs1-mCherry; green circles: Myo1-GFP. Error bars: s.d. e Cells with the indicated genotypes and expressing Shs1-mCherry and Myo1-GFP were induced with galactose for ~90 min and imaged every 2 min for 2 h at 30 °C in SD-raffinose/galactose. Cells were classified according to their behavior for what concerns septin ring splitting and CAR constriction
