Time-lapse confocal imaging analysis of the co-localization of YFP-mTOR (red) with GFP-COPA (green) and lysosomes (blue) in live C2C12 cells under nutrient starvation (0 min), and in response to AA re-stimulation for indicated time (0.5 min, 2 min, 6 min and 8 min). Arrows highlight COPA puncta that were co-localized with mTOR or COPA puncta alone prior to their association with mTOR and lysosomes.. Scale bar, 5 μm.
