Fig. 7. Effects of AML1-ETO and AML1-ETO
ZF expression on dpn. Discs
were stained for Elav (red) and Dpn (green). The identity of the
dpn-expressing photoreceptors is indicated to the right of the panels
and an arrow indicates an individual R7 cell in each photograph. The asterisk
next to B indicates cone cells differentiating as photoreceptors in
lznull eye discs. (A) dpn is normally expressed
in differentiating R3, R4 and R7 photoreceptors (see also
Fig. 1C). (B) In
lznull eye discs, dpn is expressed in the
transformed cone cells (arrowhead). (C) In GMR-Gal4 UAS-AML1-ETO eye
discs, dpn is repressed in R7 (although an occasional R7 cell weakly
expresses dpn). No ectopic Dpn expression is observed. (D)
dpn is not expressed in R7 in GMR-Gal4 UAS-lz-enR eye discs.
(E) In GMR-Gal4 UAS-AML1-ETO
ZF eye discs there are
more dpn-expressing R7 cells than in GMR-Gal4 UAS-AML1-ETO
eye discs, suggesting that the zinc-finger domain is required for complete
dpn repression in this assay.
