Figure 5. Hop1 CBR domain is important for synapsis.
The hop1-loop2 allele is simplified to loop2 in figure labels. (A) Representative images from chromosome spreads prepared at 3 h after meiotic induction, hybridized with antibodies against Zip1 and Hop1, and stained with DAPI. Scale bars: 1 µm. (B) Dot plot of the quantification of total Hop1 relative fluorescent units (RFU) per cell. Hours 2, 3, and 4 are separated by color as depicted in the legend below. Box plots are overlaid on dot plots and depict interquartile ranges between the 25th and 75th quartile, where the line in the middle of the box represents the medium value. Lines between categories represent P value results; n.s. is not significant. Statistics are determined by unpaired Wilcoxon test with Bonferroni correction, N = 2. (C) Dot plot of the % total DAPI area that the Hop1 signal occupies for each cell. Plot layout, N number, and statistics are the same as (B). Individual quantifications of Hop1 and DAPI area for each cell appear in Appendix Fig. S8. (D) Dot plot of the quantification of total Zip1 RFU per cell. Plot layout, N number, and statistics are the same as (B). (E) Zip1 length for each cell is displayed in micrometers. Plot layout, N number, and statistics are the same as (B). Source data are available online for this figure.
