Figure 3

Protein localization of wild-type and mutant of DSPP gene. Confocal microscopy shows intracellular localization of the GFP-tagged WT and mutant (p. Val18Gly) DSP in HEK293T cells. Anti-CANX antibody was used for ER staining, and a GM130 antibody was used for Golgi staining. Nuclei were stained with DAPI. (A,C) Wild-type DSP was predominantly found in the Golgi apparatus. (B,D) The p. Val18Gly mutant DSP was found predominantly in the ER, even though a portion was localized in the Golgi apparatus. GFP, green fluorescent protein; WT, wild-type; DSPP, dentin sialophosphoprotein; DSP, dentin sialoprotein; CANX, anti-calnexin; GM130, anti-Golgi matrix protein; ER, endoplasmic reticulum; DAPI, 4',6-diamidino-2-phenylindole.
