Fig. 5. Effects of morpholino injections that block the interaction of DeltaD with
MAGI1. (A-E) Dorsal views of the midbrain-hindbrain region in live embryos at
24 hpf. (A) Uninjected wild-type control. (B) Wild-type embryo injected with 5
ng of MO[dlD-V]; note narrowed third (III) and fourth (IV) ventricles and
irregular texture due to dying cells in the walls of the hindbrain. (C)
Similar phenotype produced by injection of 10 ng of MO[MAGI1]. (D) after
eight (aei) uninjected embryo; note normal morphology. (E)
aei embryo injected with 5 ng of MO[dlD-V]; note phenotype similar to
that seen in (B) and (C). (F-H) Lateral views of live embryos at 24 hpf
showing somite segmentation. Somite boundaries are disorganized below the
eighth somite in aei (H), but are unaffected by MO[dlD-V] treatment
(G). (I-K) Lateral views, anterior towards the left, of embryos at 26 hpf
analysed by in situ hybridization for col2a1 expression to
mark floor-plate (fp) and hypochord (hc). aei embryos exhibit a
reduction in hypochord cell number. This effect is not observed upon MO[dlD-V]
treatment (J). Scale bar: 50 µm for I,J,K.
