Figure 4. CHIKV E1 glycoprotein is the structural protein that co-localize with BST-2.
mCherry tagged plasmids expressing various structural proteins of CHIKV and yfpBST-2 were cotransfected into 293T cells. (A to E) is confocal microscopic analysis showing expression of CHIKV structural proteins and yfpBST-2, and co-localization between the two proteins. yfpBST-2 is in green, CHIKV is in red, and merge is in orange. Images were taken at 63×. White boxes highlight areas of co-localization. Figure is representative of experiments repeated several times.
