Fig. 6. The genetic interaction partners of DAAM. Trachea dissected
out from third instar DAAMEx1 mutant larvae display a
moderate cuticle phenotype (A), which is strongly enhanced by removal
of one copy of RhoA (B), Tec29 (C) and
Src42A (D). The DAAM trachea phenotypes are already
exhibited in first instar larvae (E,F). Homozygous mutant
Tec29 (G) and Src42A (H) first instar larvae
display a moderately strong taenidial phenotype similar to
DAAMEx1 (compare G and H with E). Consistent with this,
apical actin organization is partly impaired in Tec29 (I) and
Src42A (J) mutant embryonic tracheal tubes (compare I and J
with Fig. 4E). Scale bars: 50
µm in A-H; 10 µm in I,J.
