Table 1.
Dense body spacing along striations.
| Age | Predominant Dense Body Spacing† | |
|---|---|---|
| Wild Type | fhod-1(ΔFH2) | |
| L1 | 0.73 μm, n/a‡ | n/a‡, n/a‡ |
| L4 | 1.17 μm, 1.45 μm | n/a‡, n/a‡ |
| Day 1 Adult | 1.50 μm, 2.38 μm | n/a‡, 2.00 μm |
| Day 3 Adult | 1.58 μm, 2.09 μm | 3.74 μm, n/a‡ |
| Day 4 Adult | 1.84 μm, 2.25 μm | 2.64 μm, n/a‡ |
Values shown are calculated as the inverse of the primary frequency (μm−1) determined by FFT analysis of ATN-1::mCH fluorescence along striations (Figs S1, S2). Values from each of two trials are shown, determined from fluorescence profiles of all dense body-containing striations of two muscle cells (for L1 larvae) or eight dense body-containing striations in one muscle cell (for other ages) in each of ten animals per strain per developmental stage.
No primary frequency was present, or the calculated predominant dense body spacing spanned multiple dense bodies.
