GIT2 knockdown induces FA turnover in HeLa cells. (A–L) Control, GIT1, GIT2, and GIT1&2 knockdown cells were stained for paxillin (green) and F-actin (red). GIT2-kd and GIT1&2-kd cells show a dramatic reduction in FA size that is associated with the redistribution of paxillin to peripheral focal FCs (enlargement J', K', L'). (M, N) Control and GIT2 knockdown cells were stained for vinculin. The enlarged image (N') shows that vinculin also redistributes to peripheral FCs upon GIT2 knockdown. Scale bar: 20 muM.
