Fig. 5. Glued nuclear mispositioning is enhanced by dynein intermediate
chain reduction. Third instar eye discs were stained with anti-Elav.
(A,B) Apical surface of eye disc. Glued1 mutants show
small areas devoid of apical photoreceptor nuclei (A), while
dic2/+; Glued1/+ animals (B) have much larger
areas devoid of nuclei (arrowheads). (C,D) Basal surface of eye disc and optic
stalk. The greater absence of photoreceptor neuron nuclei in apical regions of
the eye disc in dic2/+; Glued1/+ animals is not
simply due to an absence of photoreceptor neurons, as large numbers of
photoreceptor nuclei are clustered at the base of the optic stalk in both
Glued1 (C) and dic2/+;
Glued1/+ animals (D).
