Figure 4. <strong>ICAP</strong>-1 modu<strong>la</strong>tes FA turnover by controlling its assembly rate. (A) Confocal images of Icap-1 +/+ and Icap-1 � / � MEF cells either immunostained<br />

to visualize endogenous paxillin or transfected to express EGFP-VASP. (B – F) Icap-1 +/+ and Icap-1 � / � MEF cells expressing either EGFP-paxillin, EGFPvinculin,<br />

or EGFP-VASP were allowed to spread on 1 µ g/ml FN for 12 h in a LabTekII chamber. Then, cells were imaged by time-<strong>la</strong>pse vi<strong>de</strong>o microscopy<br />

at 4-min intervals for 6 h. The resulting data were subjected to image analysis using M<strong>et</strong>aMorph software. The mean pixel intensity of a <strong>de</strong>fi ned FA was<br />

followed over time, and this analysis allowed the four param<strong>et</strong>ers of FA turnover to be measured: measurement of the positive (B) or negative (C) variations<br />

per minute of the mean pixel intensity refl ecting the assembly and disassembly rates, respectively, for each individual FA in Icap-1 +/+ and Icap-1 � / � cells;<br />
