Figure 4. Anterior otd1 and posterior cad mRNAs are localized in a microtubule-dependent manner.

Figure 4

Wild type cad (A) and otd1 (B) localization. cad localization is lost in colchicine-treated follicles (C). Anterior otd1 localization is abolished in colchicine-treated follicles, while posterior otd1 remains localized (D). cad mRNA is homogenously expressed in inverted and fused follicles derived from BicD RNAi females (E). BicD mutant follicles show loss of only anterior otd1 localization, while posterior otd1 localization is reduced (F). cad mRNA fails to localize to the posterior of tud mutant follicles (G). tud RNAi follicles show fusion and inverted polarity phenotypes with aberrant anterior otd1 localization (H).
