Fig. 6. Dan acts downstream of ss. (A,B) Cuticle preparation of the
antenna from a ss mutant. The arista is transformed to tarsus. (B is
a higher magnification of A.) (C) Cuticle preparation of the antenna from a
ss mutant expressing Dan under ptcGal4 control.
Much of the distal arista is normal in morphology (compare with
Fig. 1F). (D) ss
mutant eye-antenna disc expressing Dan under ptcGal4
control. Dan (green) was repressed distally where Antp (red) was ectopically
expressed (compare with Fig.
3A,B; Fig. 5F).
Note that ectopic Dan (in the ptcGal4 expressing cells,
blue) did not repress Antp expression.
