EGFP-Peroxisome Subcellular Localization in Transfected Human Cervical Adenocarcinoma Cells
A culture of HeLa carcinoma cells* was transfected with an EGFP-peroxisomal targeting signal 1 (PTS1) fusion protein and stained with MitoTracker Red CMXRos. These fluorescent probes respectively target the peroxisomes and intracellular microtubule network.
*Although it became one of the most important cell lines in medical research, it’s imperative that we recognize Henrietta Lacks’ contribution to science happened without her consent. This injustice, while leading to key discoveries in immunology, infectious disease, and cancer, also raised important conversations about privacy, ethics, and consent in medicine.
