Figure 5. Reduced Levels of Espins in the Vestibular Hair Cells of Jerker Homozygotes on Postnatal Day 16.
(A and B) Immunoperoxidase labeling of cryosections of maculae utriculi from a jerker heterozygote (A) and homozygote (B) using the affinity purified antibody directed against the 262-residue peptide from a more central region of the rat espin protein (amino acids 459-720). Bar in B, 20 μm.
(C) Higher magnification view of the region between the arrows in (B) shown at higher contrast to better reveal the residual stereocilia. Bar, 10 μm.
