Figure S2

MCP-based synthetic film-like organelles enrich tRNAPyl, mRNA::ms2, and cellular ribosomes, related to Figure 4

(A–B) Images used for the 3D rendering in Figure 4. HEK293T cells expressing the indicated OT organelle, tRNAPyl, and a construct encoding NLS::EGFP39TAG::ms2 in the presence of the ncAA SCO-K. All images show a selected plane of a z stack.

(A) Corresponding to Figure 4A. IF staining against PylRS and FISH staining of tRNAPyl show strong tRNAPyl recruitment. Top to bottom: PylRS (magenta), tRNAPyl (yellow), merged (NLS::EGFP39TAG::ms2 shown in green).

(B) Corresponding to Figure 4C. IF staining against PylRS and RPL26L1 show that endogenous ribosomes are recruited into OT film-like organelles. Note that owing to the abundance of ribosomes, a substantial staining outside of the OT organelles can be observed. Top to bottom: PylRS (magenta), RPL26L1 (cyan), merged (NLS::EGFP39TAG::ms2 in green). Scale bars: 20 μm.

(C) IF staining against PylRS and FISH staining of mRNA::ms2 show recruitment of ms2-tagged mRNA into membrane-associated OT organelles. Top to bottom: PylRS (magenta), mRNA::ms2 (yellow), merged (NLS::EGFP39TAG::ms2 in green).
