Fig. 7. aPKC is apically localised and asymmetrically inherited during the
perpendicular divisions. (A,B,E) Stage 8 aPKC localisation. (C,F) Stage 8
occludin localisation. (D) No primary antibody negative control. (G,H) Stage 8
aPKC and a tubulin double staining. (I) Transmitted light image of fertilised
egg. (J,K) aPKC localisation in fertilised egg. In this case, a pigmented
embryo was used to allow identification of animal hemisphere. (L,M) aPKC
staining at the four-cell stage. (N) No primary antibody negative control at
the four-cell stage. (A-H) No vitelline membrane. In I-M, embryos with
vitelline membrane are shown (as they were less damaged), but the staining was
the same in those without vitelline membrane. All images are from antibody
stained sections, except G,H, which are stained as whole-mount
preparations.
