Fig. 6. The cellular localization of Fxna. (A) Predicted cellular
localization domains of Fxna. The graph depicts the probability of different
regions of the Fxna protein being located on the outer or inner side of a
cellular membrane, or embedded within the membrane. Red, membrane-associated
domains; green line, outer side of membrane; blue line, inner side of
membrane. The catalytic domain is located on the outer side of a cellular
membrane between amino acid residues 163-393. (B-D) Double
immunohistofluorescence images showing the colocalization of Fxna-Flag (green)
with PDI, an ER-specific marker (red). COS-7 cells were transfected with
Fxna-Flag 24 hours prior to staining with a monoclonal antibody against Flag
and a polyclonal antibody against PDI. Note that non-transfected cells are
only positive for PDI. Cell nuclei are stained with Hoescht 33258 (blue).
