Fig. 6. Summary of ray rescue experiments: part II. All transgenic animals were analyzed in the strain CB3531 carrying the null allele Cel-mab-5(e1290), which forms no V rays. At least three transgenic lines were tested for each construct. Only the cDNAs that have been inserted into the unique restriction site of pAG3 are shown. mab-5 (blue), lin-39 (red), egl-5 (pink) and Ubx (gray), as well as the other Hox genes are shown with an individual color code, using specific darker colors for the hexapeptide and the helices of the homeodomain. The region of GFP fused to mab-5 is shown in green. See text for details.
