Figure Lengend Snippet: (A) NRK cells transfected with the indicated siRNA were labeled with anti-ALG-2, anti-sec31A, or anti-sec16A antibodies, a cy3-conjugated secondary antibody, and dapi. Maximum intensity projections from deconvolved widefield z-stacks of the ERES proteins are displayed in grayscale merged with the corresponding dapi panel. (B) Quantitation of 4–5 fields of ~10 random cells per field, for each condition. A consistent intensity threshold was used to automatically capture and count bright cytoplasmic objects. A T-test between the siControl and siPeflin group was performed for each labeled protein: ALG-2, N = 85, p = 0.0003; Sec31A, N = 79, p = 0.0001; Sec16A, N = 100, p = 0.866.
