Fig. 5

AnkX and PLEKHN1 co-localize on membrane compartments. a, b HEK293T cells were transiently transfected with plasmids encoding HaloTag-AnkX or -AnkXH229A. HaloTag-TMR fluorescent ligand was utilized to visualize AnkX-fusion proteins, and anti-PLEKHN1 antibody to immunostain endogenous PLEKHN1. SR-SIM images displayed co-localization between PLEKHN1 and HaloTag-AnkX on vesicular structures (marked by yellow arrows). HaloTag-AnkXH229A also co-localizes with PLEKHN1 on a similar structure. Upper and side panels show orthogonal views of the HEK293T cell expressing either HaloTag-AnkX or -AnkXH229A confirming the intracellular location of the vesicular structure where co-localization was observed and highlighting accumulation of HaloTag-AnkX at the plasma membrane
