Fig. 3. Wg signaling regulates the expression of Snail family factors.
(A) A clone of actin-wg in adult RR eye induces ectopic
expression of the transcriptional reporter (arrow). (B-B") A
clone of actin-wg (red) in Cir1 pupal eye (
32 hours APF) showing
ectopic expression of the transcriptional reporter (green).
(C-C") An actin>Gal4;
UAS-
Arm clone in pupal retina (
32 hours APF)
marked by GFP (green) shows ectopic Escargot (red) non-autonomously.
(D-D") A large dsh[V26] clone in the pupal eye periphery
(
32 hours APF) marked black by the absence of GFP. Peripheral Esg (red)
is almost entirely abolished. The faint lattice of staining is the incipient
Esg expression in the main retina 2°/3° pigment cells - this is not Wg
dependent. (E-E") An arr[2] clone in the pupal eye edge
(
32 hours APF) marked black by the absence of GFP. Escargot expression
(red) is lost in the clone. (E'') A merge of the two with an additional
stain for Cut (blue). The arrowhead indicates a cone cell that would normally
express Escargot but fails to do so in the clone.
