Immunofluorescence colocalization of ETA Amu and Dsg1 in epidermis. Mouse skin was incubated with ETA Amu with a V5 tag. Double immunofluorescence staining with antibodies against V5 tag (red fluorescence) and Dsg1 (green fluorescence) showed colocalization. Note that immunofluorescence localization of ETA Amu shows the typical pattern of Dsg1 localization, with less intense staining in the basal layer of the epidermis — a pattern opposite that of Dsg3, which is seen most intensely in the basal layer (36).
