Nature of the Psf2 mutation. (A) Schematic of Psf2 gene region on chromosome 2L with P-element insertion site indicated for the Psf2SH0805 mutant allele used in this study. (B) Predicted secondary protein structure for Psf2 gene region with impact of P-element insertion site indicated at amino acid 151. (C) Western blot representing maternal loading in 0–2 hour embryos laid by heterozygous females showing reduction in the full length protein normalized to α-tubulin as a loading control. No band migrates at 17.6kD corresponding to the predicted size of the truncated Psf2 protein generated by the Psf2 mutant allele
