Fig. 5. Protrusive F-actin polymerization results in plasma membrane invagination and BIN1 recruitment to the podosome ring.

a Interference reflection microscopy (IRM) image of REF52 cell on RGD-membrane. b Intensity profiles of IRM, F-actin, and YFP-paxillin along the dashed line in a. The region of podosome core (F-actin, labeled by CF594-phalloidin) exhibits the lowest intensity in the IRM channel and represents the close contact and protrusive F-actin polymerization towards the substrate. c Kymograph of plasma membrane (PM, labeled by mCherry-KRas-CT), F-actin (labeled by BFP2-UtrCH), and RGD-NA680 during the podosome formation in MEF cell. Plasma membrane becomes enriched and encircles the protrusive F-actin (arrowheads) (see Supplementary Fig. 7c). d Intensity profiles at t1 and t2 in d. The intensities of plasma membrane gradually increase around the F-actin (arrowheads). e Kymograph of BIN1-mCherry, plasma membrane (PM, labeled by PM-GFP), and F-actin (labeled by BFP2-UtrCH) during the podosome formation in MEF cell. BIN1 localizes at the site of plasma membrane invagination and encircles the protrusive F-actin (see Supplementary Fig. 7d and Supplementary Movie 4). f BIN1-mCherry specifically colocalizes with integrin-β3-GFP at the podosome ring and surrounds dot-like F-actin assembly of the podosome core. F-actin is labeled by BPF2-UtrCH in REF52 cell. Inset: the boxed region (5 × 5 μm2). g, h N-BAR-GFP (aa 1–267), not BIN1∆N-BAR-GFP (aa 268–476) colocalizes with BIN1-mCherry around BFP2-UtrCH labeled podosome core in REF52 cell. Inset: the boxed region (5 × 5 μm2). Scale bars represent 5 µm.
