CKAP2 Ensures Chromosomal Stability by Maintaining the Integrity of Microtubule Nucleation Sites

Figure 5

Centrosome nucleation capacity is unaffected in CKAP2-depleted cells.

(A) Two minutes post-nocodazole release shCTL and CKAP2-depleted cells were co-immunostained with α-tubulin (DM1A) (green), pericentrin (red), and merged with DAPI (blue). One hundred cells with non-centrosomal tubulin staining were measured per experimental group. As already demonstrated, a cage-like structure was observed two minutes post-nocodazole release. Representative images for each experimental group are shown. (B) Nucleation capacity was determined by measuring the mean of α-tubulin fluorescence for both the control and CKAP2-depleted cells.
