Arl2 promotes microtubule growth. (A) Control and Arl2T30N NBs were stained for α-tubulin (α-tub) and DNA after recovery from treatment on ice. (B) Quantification of paused EB1-GFP particles bound to centrosomal microtubules. Control: 16.4% (interphase [Int], n = 140), 16.5% (prophase [Pro], n = 133), 15.0% (metaphase [Meta], n = 133); Arl2T30N: 34.2% (interphase, n = 146), 15.8% (prophase, n = 133), 15.9% (metaphase, n = 138). See also Table S2. (C) Interphase and prometaphase/metaphase NBs in control (FRT82B), arl2Δ156, and arl2Δ309 MARCM clones labeled for CNN, α-tubulin, CD8, and DNA. (D) Control and Arl2Q70L NBs labeled for Insc, α-tubulin, and DNA or for CNN, α-tubulin, and DNA. Arrowhead, DNA mass of a polyploidy cell. Arrows, centrosomes. (E) α-Tubulin and DNA staining in control and Arl2Q70L metaphase NBs from microtubule regrowth assay. Cell outlines are indicated by the white dotted lines. Bar, 5 µm.
