Fig. 1. Sxl is in the same complex as Ci. Extracts from wild-type 0-8 hour embryos
treated with either anti-Sxl (A), anti-Ci rat monoclonal (B,C) or anti-Su(fu)
antibodies (D), and the immunoprecipitates (IPs) tested for specific proteins
by western blot analysis. (A) Sxl immunoprecipitates probed for Cos2,
full-length Ci, Fu and Sxl. BicD was tested as a negative control for
specificity of the immunoprecipitates. (B,C) Ci immunoprecipitates from OreR
and Su(fu)LP embryos, respectively, probed for Sxl and Fu.
(Note the same result as in B was obtained using an anti-Ci amino-terminal
polyclonal.) (D) Wild-type extract treated with Su(fu) antibodies probed for
Sxl. Extract (E) shows the migration position of the relevant protein in an
extract from OreR females on the same blot.
