Fig. 6. Nurse-cell-derived grk transcripts generate properly localized
Grk. (A,B) Grk protein is properly localized in nuclear GFP-marked germline
mosaics with either a wild-type (A, confocal image) or
grk2B6/grk2B6 (B) oocyte. The arrow in B
indicates a nurse cell nucleus with high levels of GFP that lies behind the
focal plane shown. (C) Dorsal view of a germline mosaic with the lacO/GFP-LacI
genotypic marker. The oocyte nucleus exhibits two foci of GFP fluorescence
(inset), while four nurse cell nuclei lack foci (outlined in blue; the
presence or absence of foci was determined by inspection of individual
confocal sections at the appropriate exposures). Although this oocyte is
homozygous for the grk2B6 allele, Grk (red) exhibits a
normal dorsal anterior localization typical of this stage.
