From: Signal peptide cleavage is essential for surface expression of a regulatory T cell surface protein, leucine rich repeat containing 32 (LRRC32)

Figure 3

LRRC32 is a cell surface protein. a) C-and N- terminus GFP-tagged LRRC32 expressing HEK293 cell clones were surface biotinylated, and cell lysates were immunoprecipitated using antibody specific for GFP or using normal rabbit serum (NRS) as a control (left and right panels). Protein lysates were then electrophoresed, transferred to membrane PDVF, and probed for the presence of biotinylation using streptavidin-HRP (left panel only). Blots were also probed with anti-GFP (right panel only). b) Confocal analysis of untransfected (top row) HEK293 cells, C-GFP/CAT-transfected HEK293 cells (second row), N-GFP/LRRC32-transfected HEK293 cells (third row), C-GFP/LRRC32-transfected HEK293 cells (fourth row), and C-GFP/LRRC32ΔSP-transfected HEK293 cells (last row); Green = GFP, Red = anti-LRRC32 antibody, Blue = nuclear counterstain. The left column shows anti-LRRC32 only. The right column shows GFP only. The middle column shows the merged composite confocal picture (anti-LRRC32 + GFP) with the nuclear counterstain.
