Fig. 2. ß-spectrin and F-actin are enriched laterally in par-1 clones. (A) ß-Spectrin localisation in a stage 9 egg chamber containing two small par-1 clones. ß-Spectrin still localises to the lateral cortex of mutant cells, but is present in higher amounts than in wild-type cells. (B,C) Small clones in stage 10 egg chambers in which F-actin has been labeled with rhodamine-phalloidin. Mutant cells show an increase in F-actin along the lateral cortex. (B) Sagittal view. (C) Horizontal view at the level of the nuclei. GFP, green; ß-Spectrin or Actin, red.
