Fig. 3. Ttv affects HS GAG modifications in Dally and Dly. Total protein from
third-instar larvae was analyzed by 4-20% gradient SDS-PAGE followed by
western blotting with rabbit anti-Dly (Baeg
et al., 2001) and rabbit anti-Dally
(Lin and Perrimon, 1999)
antibodies. In wild-type larvae, both Dly and Dally migrate as high molecular
masses (Mr), characteristic of HS GAG-modified Dly and
Dally (shown by arrows). In homozygous ttvl(2)00681 larval
extracts, the high Mr HS GAG-modified Dly is shifted to
relative low Mr smear and the high Mr
HS GAG-modified Dally is significantly reduced.
