Figure Lengend Snippet: A-C Continuous uptake of anti-ALCAM antibody for 15 min at 37°C in the following LB33-MEL cell lines: wild-type (WT, B), stably transfected with empty plasmid (Φ, B), or stably expressing EndoA3-GFP (LB33-MEL EndoA3+, A-C). In (C), cells were transfected with siRNAs: negative control (siCtrl) or against EndoA3 (siEndoA3). Quantification of EndoA3 depletion by western blots in Fig EV1A. (A) Airyscan images of Anti-ALCAM (red) and EndoA3-GFP (green). White arrowheads show colocalization between ALCAM and EndoA3. Scale bars: 10 μm (full size image), 1 μm (enlarged cropped areas). (B-C) Quantifications of anti-ALCAM internalization, expressed as fractions of WT condition (B) or siCtrl condition (C). (B) n cells: WT, n = 270; Φ, n = 279; EndoA3+, n = 274. (C) n cells: siCtrl, n = 350; siEndoA3, n = 234. Representative image examples in Fig EV1B-C. D-E Live-cell TIRF images of EndoA3-GFP (stable) and ICAM1-mScarlet (transient) in HeLa (D) and LB33-MEL (E) cells. Time series show enlarged cropped areas extracted from Mov EV1 (D) and Mov EV2 (E). White arrows indicate dynamic co-distribution of both signals. Kymograph in (E) was made along dashed line region in the 2 nd cropped area (D; Mov EV3). Scale bars: 10 μm (full size image), 2 μm (enlarged cropped areas). Data information: All images (A, D and E) are representative of two independent experiments. In (B-C), data are pooled from three independent experiments. Data are presented as median and quartiles. ns, not significant. ****P < 0.0001 (B, Kruskal-Wallis test with Dunn’s multiple comparison test; C, Mann-Whitney test). Source data are available online for this figure.
Article Snippet: First, anti-ALCAM (Bio-Rad, MCA1926) and anti-ICAM1 (Bio-Rad, MCA1615) antibodies were labeled with benzylguanine (BG) by incubating them overnight at 4°C with a threefold molar excess of BG-GLA-NHS reagent (New England Biolabs, S9151S; prepared in anhydrous DMSO).
