Figure 3A Representative images of hTERT-RPE1 cells transiently expressing wild type (WT), GDP-bound (S22N) or GTP-bound (Q67L) GFP-tagged RAB35. Cells were serum-starved for 24 h and stained for polyglutamylated tubulin (polyglu. tub.) and DNA. Higher magnification images of the cilia region shown in smaller panels. Scale bars; 10 µm.Quantification of GFP-RAB35 ciliary localisation (B) in hTERT-RPE1 cells transiently expressing indicated GFP-RAB35 constructs or GFP. Data are mean ± S.E.M. of 3 independent experiments. Statistical significance according to ANOVA followed by Bonferroni post-hoc test ( ** P < 0.01; P-values: (B) P = 0.0015Quantification of ciliation (C) in hTERT-RPE1 cells transiently expressing indicated GFP-RAB35 constructs or GFP. Data are mean ± S.E.M. of 3 independent experiments. Statistical significance according to ANOVA followed by Bonferroni post-hoc test ( ** P < 0.01; P-values: (C) P = 0.0062).Quantification of ciliary length in hTERT-RPE1 cells transiently expressing indicated GFP-RAB35 constructs or GFP. Cilia length quantification in (D) is shown as box-and-whisker plots. Horizontal lines show 25, 50 and 75th percentiles; whiskers extend to minimum and maximum values. One representative experiment out of three is shown (n ≥ 50 cilia per experimental condition). Statistical significance according to Kruskal-Wallis followed by Dunn's post-hoc test (* P < 0.05, ** P < 0.01; P-values: GFP vs. GFP-RAB35-S22N P = 0.0015, GFP vs. GFP-RAB35-Q67L P = 0.0158)Analysis of cilia length in hTERT-RPE1 cells depleted of GEF DENND1B) and GAP (TBC1D10A regulators of RAB35. Cells transfected with indicated siRNAs were serum-starved for 48 h and stained for acetylated tubulin (acetyl. tub.) and DNA. Representative images are shown in (E). Regions within white boxes shown at higher magnifications to the right.
