Figure Lengend Snippet: U-87 MG WT and STXBP1 KO cells were labelled with a green or a far-red fluorescent dye, respectively. WT and KO cells were mixed and plated to a 1:1 ratio on coverslips. Cells were stained with the indicatedSTXBP1 antibodies and with the corresponding Alexa-fluor 555 coupled secondary antibody including DAPI. Acquisition of the blue (nucleus-DAPI), green (WT), red (antibody staining) and far-red (KO) channels was performed. Representative images of the merged blue and red (grayscale) channels are shown. WT and KO cells are outlined with green and magenta dashed line, respectively. When an antibody was recommended for immunofluorescence by the supplier, we tested it at the recommended dilution. The rest of the antibodies were tested at 1 and 2 μg/ml and the final concentration was selected based on the detection range of the microscope used and a quantitative analysis not shown here. Antibody dilution used: ab109023** at 1/100, ab124920** at 1/100, ab315893** at 1/500, A5420 at 1/50, AF5675 at 1/200, NBP3-15097** at 1/500, 13414** at 1/100, GTX114808 at 1/800, GTX114809 at 1/1000, 67137-1-Ig* at 1/2000, MA5-35796** at 1/100, PA1-742 at 1/1000. Bars = 10 μm. **Recombinant antibody, *Monoclonal antibody.
