From: Cyclic AMP signaling in Dictyostelium promotes the translocation of the copine family of calcium-binding proteins to the plasma membrane

Fig. 4

Copines translocate to the plasma membrane with various on and off times and magnitudes after cAMP stimulation. a Time-lapse images of individual cells were obtained as described in Fig. 3 and were analyzed by determining the time at which the GFP-tagged copine was first observed to be enriched on the plasma membrane and the time at which the GFP-tagged copine was no longer enriched on the plasma membrane. Times for at least six and up to 21 cells for each copine regardless of the location of the GFP were averaged. Error bars = standard error. b Time-lapse images of individual cells were analyzed for mean fluorescence intensity in the cytosol and on the plasma membrane. The percent difference between the mean fluorescence intensity on the plasma membrane and the cytosol was calculated using images taken before cAMP stimulation and images in which the most membrane localization was observed after cAMP stimulation. The percent differences were averaged for six cells for each copine. Error bars = standard error.
