Subcellular localization of AtALDH10A8 and AtALDH10A9 fusion proteins in Arabidopsis cell suspension protoplasts.
Confocal laser scanning microscopic images of protoplasts transiently co-expressing GFP fusion protein and peroxisomal, cytosolic or plastid markers. (A) GFP-AtALDH10A8 (a,e) was co-expressed with a mCherry peroxisome marker (b) or RFP cytosol (f). AtALDH10A8-GFP (i) was co-expressed with RFP plastid marker (j). (B) GFP-AtALDH10A9 (m) and AtALDH10A9-GFP (q) were co-expressed with mCherry peroxisomal marker (n) or a RFP cytosol marker (r). Merged images of the green and red signals appear yellow (c,g,k,o,s). Cell morphology was observed with transmitted light microscopy (d,h,i,p,t). Images were taken 16 h after protoplast transformation. Scale bars = 10 μm.
