Fig. 3. Src64B mRNA expression overlaps with drl mRNA
expression and SRC64B protein is present in axons. (A) Wild-type
Drosophila embryo labeled with a Src64B antisense RNA probe
shows Src64B expression throughout the ventral nerve cord (arrow) and
in the gut. (B) Double RNA in situ staining for endogenous
Src64B mRNA (green) and drl mRNA (red) shows that
drl and Src64B overlap in the ventral nerve cord in the
anterior portion of each segment. (C) Double RNA in situ staining for
endogenous Wnt5 mRNA (green) and drl mRNA (red) shows that
Wnt5 is predominantly expressed in PC-associated neuronal cell bodies
that do not express drl. (D) SRC64B protein is expressed in
the wild-type longitudinal and commissural axons. (E) Axons of a
homozygous Src64BPI mutant embryo are not stained by
anti-SRC64B. (F) Fluorescent double-antibody labeling of a third instar
larval neuropile ectopically expressing SRC64B (red) and GFP (green) in
motoneurons (OK6-GAL4>UAS-GFP). The arrow indicates fasciculated
SRC64B-expressing motoneuron axons.
