Fig. 3. cic mutant follicle cells exhibit ectopic mirr
expression. (A-A'') Wild-type stage 10B egg chamber
(dorsolateral view). (A) mirr-lacZ is expressed in dorsal anterior
follicle cells. (A') At this stage, the two dorsal anterior high BR-C
domains (outlined) have been established. (A'') Overlay illustrates that
the mirr-lacZ domain aligns with the high BR-C domains. (B)
Stage 10B cic mutant egg chamber, dorsal (top) and ventral (bottom)
views. (C) Stage 10B (ventrolateral view). Homozygous
cicfetU6 follicle cell clones are marked by the absence of
nuclear GFP. (C') Endogenous dorsal anterior (top arrow) and
ectopic anterior mirr-lacZ expression in the egg chamber in C.
Ectopic mirr-lacZ is observed in cells in the anterior half
(arrowheads), but not in the posterior half (arrows), of the columnar
epithelium. (D) Ventral cicfetU6 mutant follicle
cell clone (stage 10B) marked by the absence of N-Myc. (D')
Ectopic mirr-lacZ expression is cell autonomous. (E-E'')
Stage 14 egg chamber with a ventral cicfetU6 mutant clone
(E, arrow) exhibiting ectopic mirr-lacZ expression (E', arrow) and
ectopic appendage material (E", arrow).
