Figure 5. Cre-dependent ribosomal profiling of microglia.

Figure 5.

(A) Diagram illustrating P2ry12-CreER-dependent recombination of the Rpl22-HA allele, used to perform cell-type specific ribosomal profiling. (B) Immunostaining of tagged microglia for HA (red) and IBA1 (green) shows strong Cre-dependent expression of Rpl22-HA in microglia. (C) Workflow diagram for Cre-dependent ribosomal profiling experiments. (D) A comparison of relative enrichment for cell-type specific markers from P2ry12-CreER; Rpl22-HA and Cx3cr1-CreER; Rpl22-HA ribosomal immunoprecipitations. (E) Genome-wide comparisons of relative enrichment following immunoprecipitation of ribosomes in P2ry12-CreER; Rpl22-HA and Cx3cr1-CreER; Rpl22-HA mice. Pan-macrophage markers in blue; presumptive microglial markers in pink; presumptive BAM markers in red.
