Volume 5, Issue 6, Pages 635-642 (June 1995) Chimeric green fluorescent protein as a tool for visualizing subcellular organelles in living cells  Rosario Rizzuto, Marisa Brini, Paola Pizzo, Marta Murgia, Tullio Pozzan  Current Biology  Volume 5, Issue 6, Pages 635-642 (June 1995) DOI: 10.1016/S0960-9822(95)00128-X

Figure 1 Construction strategy for mtGFP. (a) A schematic map of gfp10 (cytGFP), the starting point of mtGFP construction. As described in the text, after a PCR step which allowed the addition of a HindIII site, the GFP cDNA was fused in-frame with the sequence encoding the HA1 epitope, generating construct (c), and then with construct (b), encoding a portion of the precursor of a mitochondrial protein (COX8). The deduced polypeptide, as verified by DNA sequencing and shown in (d), includes the COX8 moiety, two linker amino acids encoded by the ClaI site bases, the HA1 epitope and GFP. Coding regions are indicated in green for GFP, yellow for the HA1 epitope, and light and dark blue for the cleavable presequence and the mature mitochondrial polypeptide, respectively. The positions of relevant restriction sites are shown (E, EcoRI; H, HindIII; C, ClaI; X, XbaI). The scale (0.1 kb) refers to the size of the cDNA inserts (in colors), not to that of the cloning vectors (grey). Current Biology 1995 5, 635-642DOI: (10.1016/S0960-9822(95)00128-X)

Figure 2 GFP fluorescence and bright-field image of HeLa cells transiently transfected with the cytGFP expression plasmid. The coverslip of HeLa cells was analyzed for GFP fluorescence 36 h after transfection. (a) The fluorescence image of GFP. In (b), the bright field image is superimposed on the fluorescence image. A subset of cells shows strong fluorescence, with a clear cytosolic distribution. The percentage of fluorescent cells with cytGFP tends to be more variable in different experiments and, on average, lower than with mtGFP. Scale bar = 14 μm.

Figure 5 Immunolocalization of (a) recombinant GFP with a rhodamine-labelled secondary antibody; and (b) cytochrome c oxidase with a fluorescein-labelled secondary antibody. Fixed transfected HeLa cells were analyzed as in Figure 2. The weak nuclear staining is due to non-specific binding of the secondary antibodies. Scale bar = 8 μM.

Figure 8 Effects of noradrenaline and histamine on cytoplasmic Ca2+ concentration in cells cotransfected with mtGFP and the α1-adrenergic receptor. The cells were loaded with indo-1 and incubated as described in Materials and methods. (a) Fluorescence of mtGFP, as revealed by illumination with the 488 nm laser band. Only two cells appear positive. (b) Ratio image (in pseudocolor) of the cells before any addition. (c) Image taken 5 sec after the addition of 100 μM notadrenaline. Only the two mtGFP-positive cells responded to the stimulus. After 5 min, 100 μM histamine was added, and the image shown in (d) was taken 10 sec after the addition of the second agonist. The response of different cells to histamine was slightly asynchronous. All cells except for the one strongly positive for GFP showed an increase in cytosolic Ca2+ concentration similar to that evoked by noradrenaline in the two positive cells. The pseudocolor ratio scale is shown on the right of the panels. Scale bar = 20 μm. Current Biology 1995 5, 635-642DOI: (10.1016/S0960-9822(95)00128-X)
