Western blots for Figure 1 – figure supplement 2A.

(A) Original scan (5 min) of anti-RFP Western blots shown in Figure 1—figure supplement 2A. (B) Grayscale scans (left) and brightness and contrast-adjusted scans (right) of Western blots shown in Figure 1—figure supplement 2A. Stars denote bands that are likely degradation products of the BirA-tdTomato fusion protein. Arrows denote bands that are likely cross-reactive; they are present independent of BirA-tdTomato expression and are strong in intensity because a long exposure is shown and a large amount of input was loaded. (C) Original scan (3 s) of anti-β-actin Western blots shown in Figure 1—figure supplement 2A. (D) Grayscale scans (left) and brightness and contrast-adjusted scans (right) of Western blots shown in Figure 1—figure supplement 2A. Arrowheads denote bands that likely represent synapsin isoforms.
