Loss of EHBP-1 leads to increased dynamics in RAB-10-labeled exocytic carriers. (A and A′) Confocal images showing the morphology of endogenous VIT-2-associated endosome (VIT-2-mNeonGreen-3xFlagKI) in different genetic backgrounds. The data are shown as box-and-whisker plots with 10th–90th percentile (n = 24 cells from eight animals of each genotype; dots, outliers; boundaries, quartiles; one-way ANOVA test with Dunn’s multiple comparison). (B and B′) Volume confocal images showing colocalization between VIT-2-mNeonGreen-3xFlagKI, mCherry-RAB-10, and EHBP-1-BFP. Line scan profiles of the three channels of the white line were conducted using ImageJ. (C and C′) Confocal images showing colocalization between VIT-2-mNeonGreen-3xFlagKI and wrmScarlet-3xFlag-RAB-10KI in different genetic backgrounds. (D and D′) Confocal images showing colocalization between VIT-2-mNeonGreen-3xFlagKI and EHBP-1-mCherrySC in different genetic backgrounds. Statistical analysis of colocalization was calculated as Pearson’s correlation coefficient and is shown as the mean ± SD (n = 18 cells from six animals of each genotype; two-tailed Mann-Whitney test). (E–E″) Confocal images showing the morphology of endogenous RAB-10-associated endosome (mNeonGreen-3xFlag-RAB-10KI). Statistical data is shown as box-and-whisker plots with 10th–90th percentile (n = 24 cells from eight animals of each genotype; dots, outliers; boundaries, quartiles; two-tailed Mann-Whitney test). (F) Spanning disk confocal images showing the dynamics of GFP-RAB-10-labeled endosomes. Red arrowheads represent the movement of RAB-10-associated structures toward neighboring structures, resulting in eventual convergence. Green arrowheads illustrate fission events within RAB-10-associated structures. The moving routes were tracked using TrackMate. The tiny rings indicate the endosomal structures, while the zigzag lines indicate the dynamic trajectory of these structures.
