Fig. 4. CNS phenotypes in Ptp52F and double mutants. Dissected late stage 16 embryos stained with mAb 1D4. (A) wild-type. (B) Ptp52F18.3. (C) Ptp52F18.3/Df(2R)JP4. The bundles are wavy and disorganized in B,C, and the outer bundle is sometimes missing (bracket). (B,C,E) Abnormal fasciculation of the middle and outer bundles (arrowheads). (D) Dlar5.5Ptp52F18.3. Bundle morphology in this double mutant reverts to wild type (compare with A-C). (E) Ptp10D1,Ptp52F18.3. (F) Ptp52F18.3, Ptp69D1/Df(3L)8ex25. 1D4-positive bundles in these two double mutants are more disorganized than in B,C, and the middle bundle is strongly affected (asterisks). Arrow, complete connective break.
