Figure 6. Ectopic co-expression of Miple1 and Miple2 in the developing eye does not modify phenotypes caused by enhanced Alk activity.

Figure 6

(A-F) Ectopic expression of Drosophila Alk with sevEP-Gal4 disrupts the eye morphology and leads to loss of ommatidia in the anterior region of the eye (A). Expression of Miple1 (B) or Miple2 (C) alone does not disrupt eye morphology. Ectopic expression of Alk together with either Miple1 or Miple2 protein in the developing eye neither enhances nor suppresses the eye phenotype caused by ectopic Alk expression (D, E). Removing one copy of both miple loci with the miple1,miple2Δ104 deficiency does not modify the sevEP-Gal4>UAS-Alk phenotype (F).
