Fig. 6. The Kinesin light chain (Klc) and sunday driver are not
required for ooplasmic streaming. Movement of red fluorescent particles in
sunday driver (syd; A-C) and Klc (D-F) stage 9 mutant egg
chambers. The oocytes were scanned either once (1; A,D) or continuously using
the Kalman function of the confocal microscope for 15 (15; B,E) or 30 (30;
C,F) scans. The cytoplasmic streaming observed in Klc and
syd stage 9 mutant oocytes is analogous to wild type (see
Fig. 2K-M). In Klc
mutant oocytes, however, the streaming seems to be less vigorous, as the
cytoplasmic movements in the most posterior region of the oocyte are
reduced.
