Rho1 is required to maintain AJs in the pupal eye. (a and b) Confocal immunofluorescent localization of DE-cadherin (DE-cad) in wild-type pupal eye. B, bristle bell; C, cone cell; 1°, primary PEC; 2°, secondary PEC; 3°, tertiary PEC. The photoreceptors are basal to this optical section. Anterior is to the right in all images. This and subsequent pupal eyes are shown at 41 h APF unless otherwise noted. (c and d) Confocal immunofluorescent localization of the AJ components DE-cadherin and Armadillo (Arm; c) and Armadillo and α-catenin (α-cat; d) in the pupal eye expressing Rho1-RNAi using GMR-gal4 (GMR>Rho1-RNAi). Arrows identify AJs between primary PECs and cone cells, and arrowheads identify AJs between cone cells. Bars, 10 µm.
