Figure 6. Integrin complexes are maintained at MTJ.
(A,B) MTJs in diaphragm muscle from wild-type and mutant animals were analyzed by transmission electron microscopy to reveal the lamina densa. A continuous basement membrane (arrowheads) was present at the MTJ in mutants; t, tendon, m, muscle. (C-N) Localization of proteins to MTJs (arrows) was analyzed by immunofluorescence microscopy. All analyzed proteins were present at MTJs in wild-type and mutant animals. Scale bars: (A,B) 500 nm; (C-F) 100 μm; (G-N) 200 μm.
