Fig. 7. The GEF function of PBL is required for the transition of the mesoderm from
an epithelium to migratory cells during Drosophila gastrulation.
(A,B) The majority of EVE-positive hemisegments fail to form in
UAS-pbl
DH; pbl3/prd-GAL4,
pbl2 (A) and pbl5/pbl5 embryos
(B). (C) Cross-section of a stage 10 pbl5/pbl5
embryo stained for F-actin showing a typical failure of the mesoderm to
disaggregate and spread dorsally. (D,E) UAS-GFP-Actin/twist-GAL4;
pbl5/pbl5 embryos show similar morphology to
UAS-GFP-Actin/twist-GAL4; pbl2/pbl3 embryos
(compare with Fig. 5D,F). Scale
bars: 10 µm.
