Fig. 2. Expression of full-length and deleted ft and ds
constructs. (A-F) Expression of full-length and deleted ft and
ds constructs in the posterior compartments (right) of
ftG-rv/ftfd (A-C), ds05142
(D,E) or wild type (F) wing imaginal discs with en-gal4. (A)
UAS-ft. (B) UAS-ft
ICD. In both A and
B, Ft or the HA-tagged Ft
ICD (green and center panels) is concentrated
at the cell cortex, and leads to stronger anti-Ds staining (purple and right
panels) in the region of misexpression. (C)
UAS-ft
ECD; anti-Ft staining (green and center panel)
is diffuse and not concentrated at the cell cortex, and does not lead to
stronger anti-Ds staining (purple and right panel) in the region of
misexpression. There appears to be a slight decrease in Ds levels. (D)
UAS-ds. (E) UAS-ds
ICD. In both D and
E, anti-Ds staining (green and center panels) is concentrated at the cell
cortex, and leads to stronger anti-Ft staining (purple and right panel) in the
region of misexpression. (F) UAS-ds
ECD;
anti-Ds staining (white) is diffuse and not concentrated at the cell cortex.
(G) AyGal4 FLPout clone expressing
UAS-ds
ECD and UAS-GFP (green) in a wild-type
wing imaginal disc. The clone does not lead to stronger anti-Ft staining
(purple and right panel).
