Figure Lengend Snippet: HeLa cells were grown in galactose medium (72 h) and transfected with control nsRNA or siEndoG and cultivated for 48 h. ( A ) Left panel: representative image of Western blot analysis of POLγ expression; right panel: quantification of Western blot analysis. n = 4 independent experiments. (B–F) Representative immunofluorescence microscopic images (left panel) and fluorescence-based quantification (right panel) of protein levels of ( B ) TWINKLE n = 120, ( C ) mtSSB n = 110–127, ( D ) APE1 n = 157–171, ( E ) MFN2 n = 157–171 or ( F ) OPA1 n = 103–141 cells from 2 independent experiments each. Data are expressed as mean ± SEM (ns, not significant; * P < 0.05; **** P < 0.0001; non-parametric Mann-Whitney test for unpaired samples); Scale bars = 10 μm.
Article Snippet: For immunostaining slides were incubated for 1 h with the following primary antibodies (all from Santa Cruz): rabbit-anti-human mtSSB (sc-67101 [ ]), TWINKLE (sc-134915 [ ]) and APE1 (sc-334 [ ]) as well as mouse-anti-human MFN2 (sc-100560 [ ]) and OPA1 (sc-393296 [ ]).
