Expression and subcellular localization of PDK2 and PDK3 in PCa cells. (A) Immunoblot of ectopically expressed PDK2-Flag, PDK3-Flag, and Flag-PTEN (as a control) in COS-7 and LNCaP cells using anti-Flag antibody. (B) Immunofluorescence of PDK2-Flag, PDK3-Flag, and Flag-PTEN in COS-7 cells, using anti-Flag antibody (green). (C) Immunofluorescence of PDK2-Flag and PDK3-Flag (green) as in B, with Mitotracker as a mitochondria marker (red). (D) Immunofluorescence of PDK2-Flag and PDK3-Flag (green) in LNCaP cells, with Mitotracker as a mitochondria marker (red). In (B–D) nuclei were stained with DAPI (blue). Note the punctuated and mitochondrial localization of PDK2 and PDK3, as compared to the cytoplasmic PTEN localization.
