Actin Cytoskeleton Stained Cells

Caption

Here you see wildtype cells stained for the actin cytoskeleton in blue, tubulin protein in red, and the nucleus in dark blue. Compared to wildtype cells on the left, removal of FAM123A results in a dramatically condensed actin network and kidney shaped nuclei.
