Subcellular localization of EARLY RESPONSIVE TO DEHYDRATION 7 (ERD7) in plant cells. Representative confocal laser-scanning microscopy (CLSM) images (z-sections) of either (A) Agrobacterium-infiltrated Nicotiana benthamiana leaf epidermal cells, (B) biolistically-bombarded Arabidopsis suspension-cultured cells, or (C) transgenic Arabidopsis seedling leaf epidermal and hypocotyl cells, transiently- or stably-transformed with ERD7-mCherry, mCherry-ERD7, or mCherry alone (as indicated by the panel labels), and stained with the neutral lipid dyes BODIPY or MDH (false-colored green). Also shown for each set of images is the corresponding merged image. Arrowheads in the top two rows in (A) indicate obvious examples of mCherry-ERD7 and ERD7-mCherry fluorescence patterns surrounding the BODIPY-stained TAG core, indicating that ERD7 localizes to the surface of LDs. Scale bars in (A–C) = 10 μm.
