Mean speeds and travel distances of DII-core coated LDs compared to LDs in [mock transfected] Huh-7 cellsa.

aThe mean speeds and overall travel distances of LDs are compared in DII-core expressing Huh-7 cells and LDs in mock cells (enclosed in square brackets). The error represents standard error of the mean. The n represents the number of LDs from eight or more cells in different fields of view, assessed by particle tracking for both mutant (enclosed in round brackets) and mock samples (enclosed in square brackets). Live-cell imaging was conducted for duration of four minutes acquiring each frame at rate of 1.65 sec/frame. To minimize variability for LD speeds, all of the experiments that directly compared DII-core coated LDs to LDs in a mock sample were observed in cells of the same biological replicate. The ratios were calculated by dividing the mean speed of DII-core coated LDs by LDs in the mock cells.
