Fig. 4. Na+/K+ ATPase localization to the septate junction
depends on Nrv2 but not Coracle. In wild-type (A,B,C) and coracle
mutant animals (E), the Na+/K+ ATPase (red A,C,E)
localizes to the septate junction marked by Coracle in wild-type animals
(green A,B). However, in nrv2 mutants (D)
Na+/K+ ATPase staining is reduced and/or not localized
to the septate junction. Na+/K+ ATPase staining
(
5 anti-
subunit monoclonal) is undetectable in ATP
mutants (data not shown). Basal surfaces are outlined in white, apical/lumenal
surfaces in blue. Scale bar: in E'', 5 µm for A-E,A''-E'';
in E', 5 µm for A'-E'.
