Fig. 2. Differential interference contrast and fluorescence micrographs displaying colocalization of internalized targets and fluorescent dextran. / (A,C) Differential interference contrast (DIC) images of transfectants. (B,D) Fluorescent micrographs indicating the location of the preloaded fluorescent dextran. Panels A and B show clone 131-3 (n = 3) expressing wild-type FcγRIIA. Panels C and D show clone 169-23 (n = 5), which expresses mutant tail-minus FcγRIIA and CR3. Colocalization of the fluorescent dextran (arrowheads) can be observed with the wild-type FcγRIIA but not in the clone expressing mutant tailless FcγRIIA and CR3 (169-23). Of 104 internal targets, 101 were colocalized with fluorescent dextran in wild-type FcγRIIA-transfected cells. However, tailless FcγRIIA only showed target colocalization with dextran in 3 of 41 cases (original magnification × 1100). TRITC indicates tetramethylrhodamine isothiocyanate.
