Figure 5

Profilin-dependent stress fiber formation in HEp-2 cells in response to RSV infection. HEp-2 monolayers were transfected with siRNA against profilin and infected with RSV as and where indicated. Actin (green), RSV antigens (red), and nuclei (blue) were stained as described in Materials and Methods. Note the long green stress fibers in panel B, and their abrogation in siRNA-treated cells in panel C.
