Figure 2. Rh7 contributes to light sensitivity of circadian pacemaker neurons.

Figure 2

a–i, Control and rh71 brains stained with the indicated antibodies Merged images are to the right. Scale bars indicate 20 μm. j–l, Average firing frequencies of l-LNvs during “lights on” relative to the firing frequencies during “lights off” (FFon/FFoff). * Significant differences from the control (p<0.05). j, White light. Control (n =74), cry01 (n =80, p<0.05 vs. control) and rh71 (n =60, p<0.05 vs. control). k, 405 nm violet light. Control (n=76), cry01 (n=89, p<0.05 vs. control) and rh71 (n=66, p<0.05 vs. control). l, Orange light. Control (n=58), cry01 (n=65), and rh71 (n=46). m–o, Representative recordings showing responses of l-LNv neurons to 405 nm light. Purple bar=405 nm light; black bar= no light.
