Fig. 5. The oskar 3'UTR is sufficient for Staufen
transport to the oocyte, but not for oskar RNA localization at
the posterior pole. (A-C) Staufen revealed by immunofluorescence in
stage 4 oskA87/Df(3R)pXT103 egg
chambers expressing pCogGal4:VP16;NosGal4:VP16-driven UAS oskWT (A),
UAS oskK10 (B), and UAS osk3'UTR (C).
(D) The karyosome defect is rescued in egg chambers expressing
pCogGal4:VP16;NosGal4:VP16-driven UAS osk3'UTR. White
arrow marks an intact karyosome revealed by DAPI stain. (E-H) Top and bottom
panels show stage 10
oskA87/Df(3R)pXT103 egg chambers
expressing UAS-driven oskWT and osk3'UTR,
respectively. (E,F) Staufen detected by immunofluorescence is
shown in green; DAPI staining is in red. (G,H): oskar
RNA detected by fluorescent in situ hybridization is shown in red; DAPI
staining is in blue.
